Big East Schedule

[swoopem]

I saw a tweet last week that the Big East schedule should be released this week. I'm really hoping for Saturday home games vs Georgetown and Villanofun, as well as Saturday road games at Butler and at Xavier.

Looking forward to dissecting the schedule and making my winter travel plans. Road games have become a tradition for my buddies and me.

This is a great conference because you're bound to get something from this selection every year:

Weekend in NYC (2 chances)
Weekend in DC
Weekend in Boston (Or P-town I guess)
Hinkle Fieldhouse
Weekend in Chicago

Omaha can be fun bc there are so many alums and Cinci affords one the opportunity to try inferior chili.

And then there's Philly.

Actually, the OP was correct.  He used the objective pronoun "me" as the object of the preposition "for".

Get new material.

I'm relaxed fine. The one correcting grammar(incorrectly might I add) is the one who needs Asian parlor massage.

Sho nuff. Like the link suggests, when in doubt just take out the additional noun (i.e. "my buddies") and see if it sounds right. It doesn't sound right to say "Road games have become a tradition for I."

It may be a bball message board but we are still men and women of letters (except when Ners is around.)

Well really, who doesn't?

I jokingly and incorrectly attempted to correct someone's already correct grammar.  Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.  You'll learn.

So this thread got derailed in a grammar argument

Just another day at MUScoop.

If I remember what Matt said a few weeks ago, it appears that Marquette will open at home in Big East play on 1/2.  We have played at DePaul and at Creighton the last two years (both losses).  Hopefully, we can establish a turnaround by winning our first game (perhaps against St. Johns or Seton Hall).

No, not really.  There wasn't much of an argument.  Nobody debated anything, actually.

Not to mention, where was this thread going anyways?

The OP is excitedly awaiting the release of the BE schedule that has yet to come out.

We have not discussed gerunds in quite some time.

Good call.  I could clearly use a dustup.  Care to preach?

Marquette Basketball forums! Feel the grammar love!
P.S. I used to have free time and was focused in grad school... and then I found you loveable pretty boys, and now I'm on here all day instead of doing my research papers... I'm ok with it!

[fjm]

haha, ok, who has it set up that whenever I type A**hole, it changes to Pretty Boys? That's solid, Touché.

Too many admirals saturday night games. I'm pretty sure MU would make the BC more money than the admirals.

Well once the new arena is built, the Admirals are going to the UWM Panther Arena anyway.

As painful as this may be to hear, they are officially the #2 tenant and get priority over MU.  Might be the rent check paid or the number of dates.  Not sure.

Legacy from the Pettit gift I am sure.

How do you know that? I've never heard who is #2.
Admirals pay $90,000 per year in rent and MU pays $25,000 per game, which comes out to $500,000 for this season.
