"Warriors" and SI

[State Street Warrior]

Stumbled across this article a bit ago:  http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/writers/stewart_mandel/03/14/east.regional.primer/index.html?eref=sihp

I bring it up because it has Xavier vs. Marquette as the "juicest matchup (in the east)".  In the short couple sentences that follow MU is referred to as the Warriors.  Is it just me or does SI seem to throw this out a ton?

They do it a ton.  Winn does, Glockner does it, Davis does it.  They even reference it sometimes in their articles as knowingly doing it.

Agreed, just wasn't sure if they actually did or if I was imagining things.

And he also referred to the Warriors as "pesky."  One of your favorite words.

Juicest Matchup: Xavier vs. Marquette

Now is the time to get acquainted with Tu Holloway (20.2 points, 5.5 assists), an All-America caliber point guard who helped the Musketeers to a 15-1 regular-season record in the Atlantic 10. He'll be looking to lift his team to its fourth straight Sweet 16 appearance, but first they face a duel with coach Buzz Williams' pesky Warriors, which like to control the tempo and work for open looks from three-point range. It's a very even matchup.


Let's go WARRIORS

Bilas does it also--he has even talked about it.
They will always be the Warriors.
