Great Buzz article on cbs sports

[MarsupialMadness]

I didn't know Buzz had a second job as a snake oil salesman.

Lots of cynical people (at "buckyville" and even in our own fan base) who think these coaches are all the same. They're not. We hit the Lotto with Buzz. After reading an article like this, long winded threads about Derrick vs John D seem even sillier. April 8, 2008 is a day every fan of Marquette basketball and Marquette values should celebrate. In Buzz we trust? You bet. I'm one proud "slurper" today.

I guess not all enjoyed it

When Dracula gives one-tenth of the time Buzz gives to charitable causes, then we will talk. UW fans are the absolute scum of the earth and are the reason I root hard against every team they produce.

That is a rather broad statement.  Most Badger fans are not bad.  Problem is that BadgerNation and Buckyville have a core of posters who rant on MU at every turn.  Then you get some followers who are clueless.  Just ignore these guys.  Get some of these on many message boards.

I know, I overeacted a bit. We have our nuts here, too, myself included.

Like Lenny said, I hope the entire Marquette family, from casual fans to big-time donors, realize what we have on and, perhaps more importantly, off the court.

[madtownwarrior]

nah, they are all mostly dicks about Buzz over there...

Yea, theyre pretty bad over there in Madison. I was there cheering for Northwestern this year and I got beer poured on me at Camp Randall. Northwestern of all teams, let alone Marquette.

Someone with the username "Basslakemike" made a comment on the article:

"Greg,

I have been critical at times, in the past.  The sort of snide contributer you see all too often on these boards.  Never again.  Not matter how much I disagree with you.

I am a Marquette Warrior. I played for Al McGuire.  I have been waiting for someone new to come to the school who got it.  Who understood what Marquette was about.  Buzz is that man.

I am writing through my tears to say thank you."

I wonder who it is.

Mike Curran? Mike was a year ahead of me at MU - graduated in 1969. Played high school ball at Antigo

Oh yeah, Abe Froman!
I remember when that fruit loop would troll the JS board years ago!
Considering his staggering intellect, I'm shocked he has not won a Darwin Award by now.

no thanks

You're welcome

[melissasmooth]

You're welcome

Any time. It's nice when people are polite.

[Goose]

I am a Mike Curran fan. Aside from MU ball one of the biggest Packer fans out there.

Yes it is.

It's a great story about Buzz.  Doesn't replace the awfulness of the other one, however.

Chicos occasionally makes good points.  Doesn't replace the awfulness of this one however.

EDIT:  Seriously, outside of your need to get attention, what exactly is your point here?  Why are you equating them?  What exactly did Buzz have to do with the "awfulness of the other one?"

Ners had been stealing all the "ignores" lately.

I would write Buzz a letter.

I wrote him this morning.  He already wrote me back.  The guy is unbelievable.
