If you could blame the season on one person...

Peru:

Domestication of Potatoes-->Imported to Europe-->Irish Potato Famine-->Catholic Irish Move to Milwaukee-->Catholic University Needed-->Marquette Founded

[tower912]

Pope Benedict.

[mr.MUskie]

YOU!!

[real chili 83]

Global Warming.

[chapman]

Don't hate the player, hate the game. 

So James Naismith it is.

[NersEllenson]

Any advice for that one? Not at the whole wife thing yet but the lady friend has been blaming me for a lot recently for studying too much...

Ask her how she'll feel when your studying efforts result in you making a good income and making her Lexus payment.

I'd blame past MU administration for not allowing Buzz to recruit a JUCO point guard when Vander left unexpectedly.  Arbitrary rules for two years didn't help.

Got her off my back a little when I said the reason I have to study so much now is because I was spending so much time with her the entire semester. Seemed to have worked. Hopefully that doesnt come back to bite me.

Dude, you're killing my buzz.

And I'd like to blame William E Smith, Judson Roundy, and Sidney Hauxhirst, the founders of Pick 'n Save. If they had put a store next to campus we would be pulling nothing but 5 stars right now!

How dare you blame Will Smith

Yeah! That guy is terrible!

[keefe]

Al Gore for inventing the Internet

[jimmybutlerfanatic]

Junior Cadugan.

His ridiculous comments about coming back and playing his wasted Freshman year because his teammates needed and wanted him to come back that year instead of medical redshirting like he should have.

No Junior. You teammates needed you more than ever to come back this year.

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

Losing my MU hoodie. I wore it before every game the past 2 seasons and I lost it before the start of this year...

[The Love House]

Yoko Ono. She was totally responsible for Vander leaving the team.

[mu-rara]

I will give you a hint.   If they are trying to change you now, or complaining now, while you are still in college and just dating, run, don't walk, away.     It will never get better, only worse.  

It took my wife 10 years to complete my training.

[leever]

I blame Chicos.

He's also to blame for IU's season.

And Purdue.

And Ukraine.

And the US speedskating team.

And Chipotle taking guacamole off the menu.

[Sunbelt15]

I blame Ners......for having Derrick focusing more on this board than the games.

Damn you Ners. You had to put pressure on him. You know players live and die on Scoop opinions.

Plenty of other solid PG's have been available.

[JakeBarnes]

I blame El Nino. I feel like the appropriate amount of time has passed that we can blame it again.

[GooooMarquette]

Kevin O'Neill.

If he hadn't stopped MU hoops' slide into oblivion with the Loyolas and Detroits of the world, we never would have to worry about playing against teams like tOSU, ASU, Nova, etc.  We instead would have spent the year playing a bunch of games nobody cared about against a bunch of teams nobody cared about.  And only a few of us old timers would care....

[MU B2002]

And Chipotle taking guacamole off the menu.

Hold up, what?  Couldn't they find any free range avocados?
