Brewcity e-mailed me and asked me the same question, basically trying to recruit me to the IWB premium board.    Basically, this is entertainment for me.  MU hoops is my one internet addiction.   I don't take any of it personally.    I post on the IWB free board occasionally, as well as the scout board.    They aren't nearly as active as this one.    It's fun.    But just because it is fun doesn't mean that stupid shouldn't be challenged.   I don't blame the guys who have left for more civilized places.   I'm just not ready yet.  

Glad you stick around...even with the warts of this board, it is by far the best. I occasionally read the other ones, it only takes about 5 minutes because not very many people post over there.

Thanks.   I did take a hiatus from posting right after Buzz left, because I knew what the tone of the board was going to be, remembering how bad it was when Crean left.    I peeked in a couple of times without posting and marveled at the new wave of guys who I had never heard of who were now the experts.     Amazing and amusing.   Times change, boards change.     MU hoops rolls on.

Anyone who pays for a marquette basketball message board needs to get their head checked. Especially to a guy who called "Done Deal." That's some great inside information.

Scoop has been my home and my home it shall remain. If it goes down to a bunch of new poster jackasses, I will go down with the ship.

I'm also ok with some of the recent departures. I'll leave it at that.

Yup. Could do without some of "Shaka Watch" posters. Although pretty much all of them are gone 2 refuse to die out.

No offense intended to you, tower, but "Recruit?" This speaks volumes about the mentality of people who left in a petulant rage.

This is a site for people who share a passion for MU basketball. And from that commonality flows other forms of discourse. Nobody is an expert on basketball or we wouldn't have day jobs crunching numbers, chasing ambulances, or flying jets.

People need to remember this is about a game. Al put it best when he said that college basketball is nothing more than grown men running around in public in their underwear. This is all meant to be a pleasant diversion form the stuff that really matters.

When things were flying fast and furious around here I remember seeing a few "I'm outta here" posts, but could someone compile a list of the departed? Just curious.

Tall Titan still lurks here.  No posts, but he hasn't given scoop up for lent or anything.

I'm pretty certain Sultan is off the reservation.

Of course. They need to know that we miss their superior intellect and analysis.

I would agree he shouldn't be lumped in with brew and Sultan but he did bolt in a huff like them.  

Unfortunately, a man is judged by the company he keeps or the bar he drinks in.

Yeah, Titan was tired of the chaos, and I guess so was Sultan, but it might have had more to do with me specifically :)

Keefe's cartoons on both of those threads were absolutely right on. Well done Keefe.

First time I had seen these threads (I was avoiding Scoop for a few days at that time), but Sultan and Titan both come off as whiney, petulant and arrogant. Good riddance.

This board will be fine with out them. They can enjoy their time paying for more "#DoneDeal" inside info
