Well it’s the biggest fundraiser for MU athletics so that’s one reason and you’d then see the passion that Homer bring. 

It’s inconceivable to me that more on this board don’t buy tables.


"The passion...."   ;D ;D ;D ;D

Not a donor. Not a season ticket holder. Why would I buy a table?

I don’t understand how you can be a fan of Marquette and not attend / over spend these events.  This is where the rubber meets the road.  If you want to win, get on board.

I don't live in the area. I attend one or two games a year. I have ZERO desire to attend a fundraising event to benefit MU athletics.

If that doesn't make me a good enough fan in your eyes, I don't care.

Not surprised because you don't seem to be a smart person. I mean, why make your life safer when you can do the alternative?

That would explain why you know so little  about Marquette basketball and even less about the City of Milwaukee.

Setting aside the "analysis" around Homer's views, he is truly a bad broadcaster. It's unfathomable to me that anyone who regularly watches televised sports wouldn't agree. He's a below average color commentator miscast as play-by-play, with little ability to describe game action and an unpleasant voice.

Homer is COLE. Time for an upgrade.

It wasn't a butt-wipe intern that fired Homer from the coach's show.

Marquette is going to silently fire someone (but not actually fire them because he’s still the radio voice) who isn’t an employee of the school and punish them by not allowing them to host a lightly watched/attended event? Sounds like badger fans talking about a potential recruit.

But anonomyous eagle said it !

   why are people who CHOOSE not to vax "dumb" people?  because it's your, doc fettucine' and brain freeze-ice cream breath's opinion?
You should definitely not get vaccinated.  Does nothing for you.  Paxlovid a complete joke as well.  I would also recommend you only seek the medical services of the unvaccinated as well.  Surely you will never vote for someone dumb enough to be vaccinated.  Stay off the message boards of schools that required vaccinations while you're at it.

I never particularly cared for Homer's announcing skills.  How is Novak as an analyst for the Bucks?

Would he come on board with someone doing the pbp?

No idea but I’m ready for a new radio team.  Homer’s style calling games with his attempts at being cute has grown very old on me. Smith is insightful but still manages to come across boring. I also don’t get the feeling he truly enjoys the gig and is having fun with it.

Can we all agree that this is the Marquette marketing dept's fault?

It's pretty obvious Shaka & Co are distancing themselves from Homer.

It's also pretty obvious Homer has been a big MU backer for a long time.

It's also pretty obvious Homer would tell his friends that he's ready for less radio time to save face.

But you all can keep debating these things as if some of them aren't true.  Just keep your own politics out of it.

This thread should make one consider burning his/her diploma. Just hoping that more than a few of these posts are from non MU alums. Whatever happened to critical thinking…..
