Was really embarrassing. Some people should maybe try to find a different outlet for their frustrations.
-
Hard to call those people fans, honestly. Things were grim, no doubt. But be a damn fan. They’ll all be in he bandwagon when MU goes 3-1 in the next 4. Even though they shouldn’t be allowed to.
-
Even though I could not watch the game because I don't get FS Wis, I never even considered going onto the game thread.
I did jump on at the end to give support to Wojo and the guys, but I won't go back and read what our resident arsewipes were saying.
Fans can be critical, of course. But personal attacks and general douchebaggery ... that's the opposite of being fans.

They won’t be here when they win.

What a win. So damn pumped right now.
-

Why should anyone be?? I would hope, they expect wins..if you expect them, no reason to comment on them, right??
-
I didn't post in that thread, but MU looked so horrendous through ~25 minutes of play, enough to very much doubt not just the next ~5 games, but the next 35.
The final 15 minutes was miraculous.

Lol

On my part, frustration that it felt like Wojo was over matched in one of the bigger moments of the year. Seeing Howard go down (for potentially an extended period of time) added to that. Howard is one of the only players in basketball capable of carrying a team and coaches alike.
Still not convinced Wojo is a tremendous Xs and Os coach, and one half won't change that. But that was a hell of a second half, and fight I didn't see coming heading into half. This felt like Butler 2.0 before half. Kudos to Wojo for making adjustments to get them off balance. Hope he can carry the progress forward

Uh...what?

As I've recommended before, get laid, even if you have to pay $500 for it. You desperately need a life.

I never give up on their games, but this was satisfying for a lot of us. Wojo's in-game adjustments were brilliant this game. It also shows how sometimes the team over-relies on Howard and Rowsey.
A lot needed to go right to turn this game around. But for many of us clamoring for zone, it was satisfying. Marquette not only was successful, but it allowed them to have more energy on offense. The rebounding disparity was huge.
-
Some of you guys are totally consumed by what you view as other’s “negativity”. I’ve read more posts calling out “trolls” than I’ve read about the actual game! Kinda funny
-
We were down in the game chat too but FC kept us up...and Newsie's drink reports. Wojo seems his best when he throws out the game plan. Strong performance by the lads.

soooo the only time to post is when they lose? Sounds like you're a very solid MU supporter.

What’s sadder is you posting about how other people were posting in a posting after a win.
How are you so constantly baffled that fans on a message board can be frustrated and vent anger after/during losses?
-

I have one thank you...so, you have the mindset that they will/should lose every game?? If so, perhaps this isn't the right hobby for you. I expect W's, because ummm, you know that's why they play the games isn't it??
-

I don’t mind negative posts. I mind the mindless insults. It really is embarrassing.

You really are a piece of work.
-

Yeah. I mean I could care less. No idea why that would affect you at all. Particularly to the degree that you would post more about that than you would enjoy this win

So why can’t you comment on wins? Do you think this board exists only to complain?
-

Because it is a poor representation of the fan base.

Had to watch online (thanks for the youtube link, whoever put it up!) and things looked grim when Markus went down. Big win for Wojo, the team and the program - they had every reason to mail it in down 13 in the second half with Markus out of action but refused to quit. McDermott nailed it in his huddle with about 7 minutes remaining when he told his team "Those guys in blue aren't 'supposed to' win but they want it more than you do!" The boys were warriors tonight!
-

Thank you. What a freaking joke.

It’s a poor representation of them as individuals maybe. Although I wouldn’t even go that far. Fans are emotional

You obviously feel differently than I.
-

Yeah. My post wasn’t even specifically directed at you. There are several on posting rampages attacking the “negative” posters instead of enjoying the win. Weird to me
-
Because it is a poor representation of the fan base.
Cool. Get over it. They’re fans. Everyone has them. It’s getting more irritating on here having a separate group of fans telling the other ones not to be mad.
For someone who often tries to stay above it all, you really can’t resist making these small swipes at your perceived antagonizers, can you?
-
I mean I could care less.
If you could care less, then you're not trying hard enough, and potentially care too much.
I couldn't care less about that though.
-

Busted. Is I could care less the same as I could give two sh*ts? I need to work on that
-
So why can’t you comment on wins? Do you think this board exists only to complain?
I do comment on them, but they don't "wow" me like they do a lot of you. I expect them to win games...not all of them, but a lot of them. Tonight's win was magnificent, and probably the best win in the Wojo era, I stated that in the game thread...that good enough for you almighty one??

Warriors! Brothers (and Chick, Mom, and Jutwa)! Now is not the time for this. We are all Marquette fans. We show our love in different ways. Some prefer to share their disappointment, others their joy. Neither is the better fan, just a different fan. Sure I get annoyed at it too but now is the time to celebrate! For we thought our team died upon Markus' hip! Instead, they rose again the next half! Now is a time for all Scoop brethren (and Chick, Mom, and Jutwa) to come together in celebration.

Nonsense, TAMU. You are one of the better ones.
I like the attempts at unity, though. Thanks.

A measured, rational, thoughtful perspective. Thanks TAMU. Well done as usual

No kidding. Some people just don't belong here

Wocky, I need full mod powers in the game thread. What say you????
-

Avoid game threads.

Avoid game threads.
And I thought Wojo had cornered the market on demotivation...

I don’t think it’s trolling. I think it’s being a whiny b!tch. Which is also kinda funny. The comedy is the only reason I kept reading the game thread.
-

There are a handful of posters (trolls) that have multiple accounts, they log in and out of switching between names when they thing enough people have put them on ignore. Quite sad.
-
Uh...what?
what? Here’s what... people comment on the unexpected. Many expect us to play well and win. It’s noteworthy when expectations are not met.

Totally agree. And Scoop is tame compared to the Blue Jay board. Great job all around--players and coaches changed it up and pulled off a great win.
-

Well that's just strange. Unexpected things only happen when they lose? There was unexpected things in last night's game. The switch to zone. Sacar's game.
But people in the game threads just bitch when things are going bad.

The concept isn't hard to grasp. The oddness of it is.

Well said, brother TAMU. Fans deal with in game up and downs differently but we should celebrate or commiserate together once the game is over. Those "embarrassed" by their fellow MU fans might want to instead reflect on all the embarrassing things they themselves have posted in the past - I won't hold my breath, though!

What a tosser

Great win last night. Quality win, quadrant 1 win, on the road, hostile environment, down 16, #1 scorer with brutal injury, nothing is looking good for 25 minutes, WIN that gives hope for 2018 and 2019. Unexpected and really fun.
But people have gone equally over-board on this win than any loss. It's one game, one shining moment for the team and coach in a season full of performances that make MU worthy of their 6-8 record.
Welcome aboard the MU Scoop roller-coaster. Admission is two beef n cheddars.

I'm good. You should look in a mirror however.

its a win. Great! First one ever? If so, on the next one, act like you’ve been there before.

Dang! I wish like heck I had thought to check YouTube!!! Will the same link be available for Wednesday's beatdown of St. John's? I don't want to miss any of Sacar's 53 points!!!

To be fair, I thought we looked good through the first 8 or so and basically the entire second half.
-
I'm good.
LOL. A legend in your own mind.

Predictable. Personalities and attitudes and character have been revealed. What would be fun is if the upbeat crowd went postal and the negative Nancys suddenly became chipper.
