Marquette's nickname change
« on: June 14, 2009, 05:42:02 PM »
How do most of you feel about being forced to change your nickname?  I was always a huge Al McGuire fan (next to Bob Knight my favorite coach) and I hate it when "politically correct" groups have to tell teams what they can and can't be named.  Politics should be left out of sports.

Marquette and Warriors goes hand n hand in my opinion.

I liked Golden Avalanche also......  hehe :)

Are you serious right now?  So you're not here to troll, did I get that right in your first poll?  You're clearly proving to be here for JUST THAT REASON AND THAT REASON ALONE

Let's see:

How do you feel about Crean?  Check!
How do you feel about the nickname change?  Check!

I guess all he has to do to finish up the trolling trifecta is to ask how people feel about the "Notre Dame is French for our _____" t-shirt.

CNC,

Your next thread should be one of the following to complete your hattrick, and run your ignore count to 20+


A. Trevor M. is really a nice guy, and was just misunderstood.
B. Sobelmans makes a crappy burger.
C. Beer is for losers, wine coolers are where it's at!

H.  What's your thoughts on playing in such a large conference, unlike the very well put together Big Ten
I.  Why is Buzz Williams stealing players from Madison Memorial

Why can't Brewers fans just accept that Cubs fans are a guaranteed stimulus to Milwaukee/MillerTown economy ?? :D  Job security, baby!

What do you think about Mike Deane's chances to get us into the tourney? He had a solid run at Siena; anyone think he will bring in some top 50 players?

Do you guys think you have been unfair to UW-Milwaukee all of these years?   And why were you afraid of them when they were good?

I never thought I'd have an opportunity where the Ignore feature really became necessary, but it just did.
