Both Guards and KState had easy victories in their opening match-ups setting up a strong 3rd round match between two endless debates on Scoop.  So which side has more vitriol and annoyance on it's side?  Who wants it more(or least depending on your perspective)?  Guards has a wide base of adherents, but KState has one major follower and a lot of ridicule on it's side.  Who wins?

KState Scrimmage
One of the weirder memes, this one was based on the belief of one or two posters that scrimmage results against Kansas State(that no one saw) impacted the seeding for Marquette in 2012.  Dismissed by all but one, the meme nevertheless took off and is used repetitively.

Guards Game
An oft repeated mantra of ChicosBailBonds, this meme gets almost the exact amount of run as the can't recruit/teach bigs meme, but at the opposite time....weird.  Simultaneously used as a reason for a lack of MU success and why recruiting bigs isn't important, it is an oldie but a goodie.
"A Plan? Oh man, I hate plans. That means were gonna have to do stuff. Can't we just have a strategy......or a mission statement."

Chicos is clearly a blueblood of Scoop meme generation

Guards Game
Point of reference.   The scrimmage took place when Michael Beasley was at K-state.   I think that makes it Crean's last year, 07-08.    And the rest of it was that Beasley went of for 40+ because MU couldn't defend him.    Or some such crap.    Doesn't change my vote.

Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Both of these are good, but you can probably find some version of the "guards game" mantra on nearly any hoops message board.  The KState scrimmage one is so uniquely Scoop that I could see it making a deep run in this tournament.

I'm so confident in my meme that we have already booked our trip to The final 4.  Call us the 2003 UK fan base who I overheard in a MN hotel say they needed to get a refund on plane tickets

The University of Kenosha, UK for short, is sometimes confused with the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, but is, in fact, a private university which is the only university in the US known to have a major in internet meme generation.  Other popular majors include first aide for fishermen....
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Why is it that the Memes don't show up in these threads.  Is it my computer/browser or is that just the way it is for all?
