Done Deal
Probably the most memorable of the Shaka Smart flirtation memes.  Self proclaimed MU insider, Jim Ganzer tweeted that the Shaka Smart to MU plan was a "done deal".  By that evening the reporting had been refuted and 5 days latter all negotiations were broken off.  Every rumor from that day forward was derisively met with a #donedeal hashtag.  This meme also made it's way to twitter

Hoopaloop
This is one of the more controversial memes in Scoop history and is relatively difficult to explain.  Hoopaloop was a poster that popped up during some of Chico's occasional absences from Scoop for bad behavior.  This poster came to stir the pot as much as Chicos did leading to speculation that Hoop WAS Chicos.  Oh hilarity ensued.  Eventually it was "revealed" that the poster known as Hoop and Chicos "knew" each other and Hoop let Chicos borrow his log-in to post, because he just can't quit you Scoop.  Hoop disappeared shortly after Chico's re-instatement, but not before they mutually supported each others arguments for a while.  This event also spawned the beer summit meme.  This is why the internets are the best.

Left out of the Hoopaloop story is the fact that Hoop and Chico powwowed in Chico's basement where Hoop betrayed his principles for 30 pieces of silver (actually free Disneyland tickets and two Bud Lights) and allowed Chico to post from his IP address. Hoop was never heard from again. Story goes that, shamed and in deep despair, he hung himself on the big olive tree near Mt Calvary, In.

That's just Pope Urban II legend.

I hadn't heard he flopped his meat out on an olive tree. The story I heard is that he hanged himself on an olive tree.

Scoop--where the grammar police make dick jokes. This place is the best.
