If you can put aside Bucky hate for a minute...

[MUEng92]

Every time I try to tell myself all the Badger fans I know are decent, well adjusted people so there is no logical reason to detest Wisconsin, I come across someone like @brewpackred on Twitter. 

Then I tell myself, yeah, that's why.

Could enjoy if it weren't for Bucky fan base, this not be helping our cause.

[vRossman]

So... a tiny fraction of their fan base?

Bitter much?

[Eldon]

Bitter much?

Anybody else find the Badger trolling refreshing after having to deal with the lollipop kids of VCU?

[ChicosBailBonds]

One of the redeeming benefits of hiring Martin, if we do, is the reaction by Vadger fans.  The subtle little racial dog whistles they put out there about our team in the last 10 years would just go one step further.  Imagine if Martin had a tatoo, they would really lose their minds.

So when he says non-annoying alumni make up a tiny fraction of our fanbase, he's not trolling. But when I call him bitter, I am. Makes sense.

Mr. Stephen, why are you here?  Don't you have a team to support today?

If he had said it on a Badger board, then yes he would be trolling.

Game doesn't start for over 9 hours. Just came here to see if there were any updates on the coaching search, Hill, Cohen. But I figured I'd humor myself while I'm here.

Well, since we were in the Elite 8 last year and it has been a really long time since you guys last tasted it, I guess is makes sense you would come here to see what it is like.....it being an odd feeling for you guys, a strange sensation and all.

If we can help you with how to deal with the nervousness, etc, feel free to ask.

[Mike_Marquette]

I don't hate Bucky. Always thought Madison was a really cool town. It's mostly wisconsin people who hate UW-Madison.

[NavinRJohnson]

Stephen, this you?

[WadeATKBurton]

I hate Wisconsin..seriously I do

Actually, it's been a grand total of 0 years since we've been in the elite 8. And I already said why I was here. Try reading the post before responding next time, it'll serve you well.

I read just fine....like this one.  http://www.muscoop.com/index.php?topic=43334.0


It has been 10 years, not 0 years as you stated.

Wisconsin has played to seed at this point. They were expected in the Elite Eight. It's a wonderful moment and best of luck tonight. Defeating a higher seed in Arizona to reach the Final Four will be the crowning achievement of Bo Ryan's tenure.

Interesting. Mind if I ask how many teams are left right now? I could've sworn it was 8.

[mu-rara]

What does MU RaRa think?

I was sure your head exploded yesterday.  Glad you're back.

Bo's record in the tournament is abysmal.  I don't need to be emotional about it.  It is what it is.  Pretty sure that most Marquette fans are happier with our tournament record than Becky fans are with their's.

True, but every time I think MU fans are decent, I come across Willie Warrior or MikeDeanesDarkGlasses.

[wisblue]

I think most of the Bucky haters here are the flatlander Illinesians.

Personally, I hope for UW to go 30-2 every year - losing only to MU during the regular season and then again in the NCAAs

How about people who are lifetime Wisconsin residents who went to other schools and don't like being surrounded by insufferable Badger fans, several of whom will confront you with a "________ Sucks" if you dare wear parephenalia supporting your alma mater.

I hope Wisconsin loses every time they play and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

[Tugg Speedman]

Did you know Frank Kaminsky went to Benet Academy in Lisle IL with Dylan Flood?  He calls Flood his best friend.

[mechaghidorah]

Wonder how big that missed trip when UW was up 5 and had the ball will be?  If Kaminsky makes the layup, AZ probably calls a TO.  Instead, they hit a 3 and UW is reeling and now it's tied.

[PuertoRicanNightmare]

Do you guys actually dislike Bo Ryan? I like him.

[Sir Lawrence]

Well, he can coach. And I'd have a beer with him.

[muhoosier260]

When Tarczewski dribbled it out of bounds but Arizona retained possession, Cryin Ryan went berserk. The refs didn't give him the time of day, a real 'stfu' from the refs, I loved it.
