JFB
Nickname for one of Marquette's best players in the 2000s, Jimmy Butler.  A thread looking for a nickname produced this co-development.  Ziggy proposed Jimmy F*cking Butler and IAmMarquette followed it up with the acronym, sealing it in MUScoop history

Automatic
This meme started as a bro chant from the broiest part of the student section every time Davante Gardner was at the free throw line.  Immediately, it drew ire and disdain from the MUScoop faithful (see anything the current students do), prompting vigorous debate.  Eventually Davante Gardner himself voiced a favorable opinion of the chant, swinging the board 70/30 in favor and saving lead bros from more internet Scoop scorn.
"A Plan? Oh man, I hate plans. That means were gonna have to do stuff. Can't we just have a strategy......or a mission statement."

I was pro-automatic, but JFB must win.

About the make/miss ratio of Davante shooting free throws, which makes him far from "Automatic!"

Automatic grew on me, but I never fully commited.  Regardless, JFB is greatest nickname in MU history that I've been a part of I think....maybe Dean the Dream was better, but that was well before my time.

When Davante stopped making free throws at a high rate, the chant just sounded dumb.   JFB is forever.   
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

I will never be partial to "Automatic" due to the douche-bros who started the chant in the first place.
