Belling is using this board against MU

[mu-rara]

What a blowhard.  He's practically quoting posts on todays show to make Buzz look bad.

[TVDirector]

but hogie--- that's your buddy!!

[Skatastrophy]

If I had something against MU I'd be quoting the stuff posted on these forums the past couple days too.  There's been a lot of asinine immature comments made about the Maymon situation that I would have expected to find on BadgerNation instead of MUScoop.

Then again... if Belling spent his show quoting haikus I would like a link to the podcast please

A lot of folks on this board have been on tilt and acting very immature towards an 18 year old kid.  These comments reflect poorly on the entire MU community and make us look like badger fans.  Folks... he's gone, please let it go!

[Hards Alumni]

Mark Belling, a scum bag?

I'm surprised that you're all surprised.

a know nothing blow hard who doesn't have a sane cell in his brain is dragging someone through the dirt?

AND YOU'RE ALL SURPRISED?

remember these words if nothing else.

"Anything you say, can and will be used against you."

[bma725]

And people wonder why some of us get upset when the board turns into the place it has been the last few days. 

Be careful what you say folks, you never know who's out there reading this and how it will negatively effect the team you love.

[PuertoRicanNightmare]

Oh, that's a load of crap. This is a fan message board and the team's most high profile recruit just walked out on the team. Everybody is supposed to just talk about North Florida? Get real.

[TallTitan34]

Did he say MUScoop by name?

[Niv Berkowitz]

To quote a former coach...

It's Mark Belling. It's Mark Belling.

A no talent arse-clown.

[Guy Fieri's Dad]

Art Belling is a moron who does no fact checking whatsoever.

This elitist crap that we are so much more civilized than (insert team of the day here, Badgers, ND, etc.) fans is just plain ridiculous. There are plenty of jack-ass fans rooting for every school and team. There are people here who will post what they think and they don't give a crap. There are others who are more refined in their approach. It's a MESSAGE BOARD. I appreciate both kinds of posters and like that the board is pretty mild with its editing. (cue uplifting music here) What brings us together is MU bball, not civility of posts, better spelling or a propensity for taking the high road.

There was a post last hour about a former player's dad getting busted for blow. I wasn't aware of it. I found it mildly interesting/amusing. A few people posted on it and it was deleted by the mods. Fine. That doesn't mean it didn't exist, or that because it's gone we are all so much better than a board where they don't delete "controversial" posts. From haiku specialists to kids who hate Real Chili to unapologetic Maymon bashers, we're no more civilized as a group than most of the fans at schools you hate.

Agreed.  If you want to take what one post says and generalize it to stereotype all Marquette fans, the team, and anyone associated with the program then go right ahead.  That's just ignorant; especially when people can hide behind screen names and anonymity.  True fans take a lot of pride in their team and sometimes take things like this personally because they care.  It may not be right to ridicule when we don't know the whole story but I don't think it's too far fetched to connect the dots on this one.  Post what you want but don't chastise others because they say what they feel.  The kid is 18, not 6, we don't need to play patty cake with him.

Has he recited any poetry yet?

[NCMUFan]

I guess a slow day in the news world or the guy is desperate for something to fill his radio hour, or MUSCOOP is the source for news for this guy to report. When it is all said and done, we are MU fans and always will be.  Quoting Neil Young "Walk on."

If we don't want this stuff talked about, then don't recruit a kid with red flags and sirens going off from day one.  Risk vs reward....risk has manifested itself.  Has anyone looked at the other boards of our rivals on this topic?  Makes this board look like we're talking about baking cakes.

[muole]

Michael Hunt at the JS basically repeats my posts about MU whenever he writes about the program.  it's annoying and Im thinking about writing him and telling him to stop or else I'm going to start sending him an invoice for "material"

[Marquette84]

I guess a slow day in the news world or the guy is desperate for something to fill his radio hour, or MUSCOOP is the source for news for this guy to report.

For years people begged to have MU noticed in the media. There was analysis of the number of square inches devoted to an MU photo in the J/S, or whether MU was the 1st, 2nd or 3rd radio report during the sports show.

In addition, people have have praised this board for both the timeliness and completeness of the information on anything related to MU.

So now when someone in the media notices MU and cites this board as the source--it's called a "slow news day?"

You've got to take the good with the bad.  For better or worse, this is a big story.  It's not a "slow news day" for an MU related story to get on the air.

[warthog-driver]

belling is his name
spouts venom for all to hear
but can he haiku

[MUSF]

Are you really going to let a small market shock jock and the feelings of a player who just quit on his brothers, his coach, and his school dictate your behavior.  I am not supporting personal attacks or inappropriate comments but we have the right to call a spade a spade.  If you want to pat the Maymons on the back while they take a dump on you, go ahead.  Of course that is the kind of behavior that inflates kids/parents egos and makes them think everyone should bend to their desires.

a violent stench
tim maymon had corn for lunch
disreputable

[jaybilaswho?]

I hope he uses this one....


Who the F is Mark Belling? Seriously. I have never heard of him.

[Warrior of Law]

He does have some influence. What exactly did he say? Better yet, which hour of the show?

[rocky_warrior]

Did he say MUScoop by name?

1) That was my thought.  Free advertising

2) Belling going off on people overreacting?  Now that's ironic.

3) He must be insulted because he thought he had the market cornered on inflammatory remarks.

a quick question please
how many recruits listen
to this man belling
