It’s unbelievable. Chico’s must have posted 200 posts the last few days.

59...then you have to add Billy’s, WarriorDad’s, And whomever else I M currently accused of being....so 200 might be correct.

Nobody’s?  Just as there weren’t Packer fans that actively cheerplayed d for Green Bay to lose so McCarthy got fired.  You sure you want to go with NOBODY....social media is a treasure trove of people saying all kinds of fun things that disprove nobody statement.

As you pointed out on a different subject, it's impossible to prove a negative. But IF, and it's a big if, there is someone or a handful of someones out there cheering for our opponents so Wojo gets fired it is SO rare that bringing it up in any legitimate discussion on Scoop is a red herring.

I haven’t talked to a single person that voted for one person in 2016 that knows someone that voted for the other person....yet somehow millions of votes went to both sides.  Imagine that....people run in bubbles and communicate in likeminded ways.

Well now you know at least 1. Well I don't know if posting on the same message board is knowing someone, but I know plenty of people who voted opposite of me.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Or maybe they like the guy. Jeez why are people so negative about the most inconsequential things.

Please read my first sentence - exactly what I said.

I would wager (though not provable) that there are plenty on this board who want Wojo to fail to prove they were right. The only thing preventing them from actually saying it or cheering for it is they are MU basketball fans.

It wouldn't stun me if there were a few who hate Wojo so much that they end up taking satisfaction in losses they can blame Wojo for.

But if you are going to make direct charges that you know some Scoopers who are rooting against Marquette, either name them or shut the eff up. You are Mr. Look Up Past Posts. Show some effen evidence. Stating something dozens of times isn't evidence.

Stating something dozens of times isn't evidence.ting something dozens of times isn't evidence.

Evidence hell! It's proof. There is one guy on Twitter every single day who proves he's speaking the truth by repeating his claims over and over and over again.

You're being wildly hyperbolic or you keep a VERY tight circle of people you know.

FWIW, I tend to agree with most of what you say on here. *ducks*

Show me where I said scoopers did this.  Never did....purposefully.  I said some MU fans, which last I checked most are not on Scoop.  Now, do I believe for a second some also are on Scoop hoping we lose so they get their validation of the coach they hate based ...you’re damn right I do.

So some MU fans, but not Scoopers...but damn right some Scoopers too! Evidence of either? Zero.

Sounds like someone projecting...let's return for a minute to those glorious Buzz years. LOL

Statements like this really only serve two purposes:

1.  It moves the conversation away from Wojo's job performance to some "I'm a better fan" d*ck measuring contest.

2.  Begins to build a narrative that if Wojo doesn't succeed, it's because the fanbase didn't support him.

I would wager (though not provable) that there are fans who think Wojo deserves a 10 year extension.  What's it matter though?

LOL...Buzz is gone and you don’t know the half of it.

At any rate, i’ll Invite you to do a little searching on the social sites and you can prove yourself wrong about some MU fans wanting us to lose so he gets fired.  It will be a good exercise in social media for those that don’t fit the demo....you can learn how to navigate.  If you want some bread crumbs in hints to help you, I am here for you.

I am absolutely convinced that some people would prefer a terrible season to another season of *marginal* improvement because they think it would mean Wojo would be fired.

So in a theoretical world, playing the game what would you choose equates to actively cheering against your team?
