CBS Chicago Blogger Tim Baffoe has asked readers to pick the college team he roots and hopefully writes for this season.  Whoever gets the most votes by noon Friday wins so be sure to write in MARQUETTE!

It would be nice to get a little love in Chicago!

Also there doesn't appear to be a limit how many times you can vote.

[RyanConroy]

Must not be, just voted for MU 20 times.

[TallTitan34]

I've dropped in about 100.

[RealChiliWarrior]

Vote often, it is the Chicago way.

[mugrad2006]

I got about 30 in there.

If Marquette makes up even a small portion of the 'other' category it's a blowout.  I wish I could see the look on Baffoe's face when he looks at the 'other' category.

[TallTitan34]

I put out a tweet asking MU Fans to vote.

Baffoe re-tweeted it.

The "other" catergory is stuck at 1,000 but the total votes still goes up when you vote.  Keep voting!

No, but the regular poll items don't total up to the total votes over 1000 listed at the bottom, so I'm guessing no one expected the individual lines to get more than 1000 votes, but it is still counting them.

[TallTitan34]

If you keep voting, the other percentage actually goes down as it is stuck at 1000 but total votes keep going up.

Awesome voting guys.  We broke the poll!

Keep going!

[MU_LOL]

This is absolutely hilarious how the rest of the votes are being dominated

[RyanConroy]

I think these "other" votes are AT LEAST half Marquette, too.

[Canadian Dimes]

when does the poll end?

[TallTitan34]

Friday at noon.

[chapman]

I think we win.  So who's sending Tim a t-shirt?

[TallTitan34]

Don't rule out University of Illinois people voting.

[Brewtown Andy]

Don't rule out University of Illinois people voting.

Baffoe says right in the article that he's never liked the Illini, so even if they win, he's just going to ignore that.

[Markusquette]

lol just voted about 30 times as well

[boyonthedock]

i had about 1/3 of the votes between 1900 and 2000 total

[WellsstreetWanderer]

I just was told the entire inhabitants of  St. Andrew's Cemetary will be voting soon

[reinko]

Erp, I just got warned, have been given a "cooling off" period.   

[TallTitan34]

Still growing!

[muwarrior69]

Does the guy not like Marquette. Not even listed as a choice.

[TallTitan34]

Marquette isn't exactly the first school that comes to mind of most people.

[Benny B]

I do hope it was someone here that I was racing to the 3,000th vote.

BTW - If that was you, suck it --- I'm Mr. 3,000 now.  Nobody can Ctrl-V, Click, Click faster than me.
