Seth Davis vs. Marquette Twitter War

[tower912]

Meh.  Just how Seth processes things.

[wadesworld]

Idk listen to any BE centric ones and I get the vibe we ain't even top 5 in our own league

And providence is unanimously 1st at the very least.

I follow a bunch of CBB twitter stuff and I see the seth David Kam replies for any pundit making a comment on any team or player. I find them entertaining.

Providence definitely the worst.  Good call.

Most, if not all, of the national CBB podcasts I've listened to have some kind of bit about at least one member of the podcast "hating" Marquette because of the fans on social media.  They don't do it about many teams.  Indiana being one of the others.

Interesting. Any podcasts in particular? I admittedly haven't listened to any of the big CBB pods much during the rough stretch we've had these past several weeks, but I'm usually an avid listener and have never heard anything about MUBB fans specifically, at least not during the past two or so years.

In terms of bias, I find that Marquette is consistently talked about quite positively by the Eye on CBB and the Field of 68 (minus John Martin & Goodman), even after losses. The Sleepers pod is pretty anti-MU and Big East, however, which tracks since they're B1G/MSU homers.

Norlander pretty consistently says stuff along the lines of "You've always hated Marquette!" to Gary Parrish when he "doesn't trust the building" and picks against MU, because Marquette fans yell at him.

One Shining Podcast used to talk about it before they split into two separate podcasts.

Gee...do we know any fans of Marquette and Indiana who is an annoying online presence?

Haha I do find Gary's opinion on NBA arenas entertaining since it's kinda valid. Haven't ever heard him mention MU fans specifically, but maybe that's just by chance.

He loves his little homie from memphis, he's 42% percent boilermaker, he doesn't trust the building, you've always hated marquette, etc.

They're just doing bits on eye on cbb. Just having fun, joking around. I honestly think they do quite like shaka, and don't really have strong opinions about Marquette or its fans either way, if I had to guess.

Tempted to type out a 20 paragraph bad faith interpretation response in his loving memory

They give Marquette a lot of love and think they like Shaka.  I do think they find MU fans annoying.  And they aren't alone.

I am submerged in self loathing too. I am here for u and all

Maybe this is a discussion for another thread, but I've always been under the impression that Marquette is a fairly likable fanbase. There are some notoriously annoying ones out there and I've never heard anyone put MU in that conversation. Not even when it comes to just the Big East.

This could very well be biased and maybe it's generational (I'm in the 20-30 y/o demographic), but most other non-MU fans I've talked to have always said they find us to be among the more classy and respectful fans in the BE, whereas UConn & Providence are on the less polite end and Creighton is the whiniest of the bunch.

I'm sure there are plenty of insufferable MU fans, but at the end of the day, every fanbase is their own worst critic. And I don't think MU is nearly as bad as others out there.

[FairWeatherEagle]

Good thing your opinion of my posts means nothing to me. See how easy that is?

Sultan....those last couple of posts....a little thin there yourself

In my travels, I've found Xavier and Butler fans to be classy and easy to deal with.

And I've found DePaul fans to be ... wait ... I haven't found any DePaul fans.

Marquette fans really have the thinnest of skins.

It seems the thin-skinned one is the one blocking someone for forcing them to face facts.

Or maybe both

Providence fans are the trailer trash of the BE.  Sat amongst a bunch of them last year at the BET, if it weren't for no class they wouldn't have any class.  I had someone take a swing at me during the MU/PC game, trust me I did nothing to justify that, was just cheering loudly for MU. MSG did escort the guy out.

Talking to other BE fans at bars etc last year they all said PC fans were bad news.

[We R Final Four]

Xavier fans are very solid.
