Title: Vote for Buzz & Marquette
Post by: MarquetteDano on July 02, 2008, 03:27:04 PM
My apologies if this has already been posted.  Below is a link to the ESPN NCAA page.  The bottom fight poll asks if Buzz will take us to the tournament next year.

VOTE UP!  I love how it breaks down votes by state, even international.  I am in Pennslyvania today so I have given a "yea" from PA...

But LA's got some for him (63% yes...only 8 votes though).

Kansas is too close to call at almost 50% each...35 votes total

What's up with New Mexico and Utah? Maybe Mortensen's family and friends are voting against MU! LOL!

And there's the lone dissenter from Maine!  >:(

Too bad you're not in MT, HI, ME, or ID, you could have spoken for the entire state!  And c'mon WY someone needs to represent!

On on the other hand, the people voting no seem nuts.  I could probably coach this team to the tourney.

Nah, one ip address = one vote.  Though I heard someone elsewhere thinks I have 20 now....new nuptials will do that to you sometimes.  Head in the clouds, etc.  A sincere congratulations to all that walk down that aisle by the way.


For the record, I voted yes in the California delegation.  If the question was "will Barry Switzer lead Marquette to the NCAA tournament this year" I would have also voted yes and likely the Oklahoma delegation would have come in stronger for us.

As Chico stated, he's a CA dude (check his avatar).

The LA was Louisiana's abbreviation.


BTW, we should try and get MARQUETTE and/or BUZZ in the ESPN's top 25 searches for July!

Here's their June recap...

Well I am in CA visiting until the 9th of July, and I voted once from my Relatives home, so that helps the CA vote!

Anybody got a link to the poll, I can't find it anywhere on ESPN's site now.

Edit...never mind, found it in my browser history

What's funny is the poll:

"Do you want Brett Favre to come back?"

49 states say No with a pretty consistent 2:1 margin.

Except for one solitary blue state.

Wanna guess which one that is? ;)
