Thanks.  It's a free country so I guess if he feels the need.

I'm going to start one next that requests we only sign up cheer leaders with certain colored hair, measurements, etc.  Maybe that will fly as well.

MU joins the Big East and competes very well its first season.  Still, the montra of "What a crappy schedule!" goes on.  Can anyone come up with something new to talk about?

[MarquetteFan94]

What's the record for longest thread on MU Scoop?

I'd like to declare this dead horse thoroughly beaten....do I have a second?

[spiral97]

this one.. with 80.. oh wait.. now 81 replies

it's dead when the posters grow weary of posting on the topic..
but I think 84 and topper are just in their ring corners for the break before round 2 starts... perfect timing for me to go fetch beverages and snacks.

Boys, find a way to trade e-mail addresses and have it out between the two of you.   Let it go.

Perhaps it will start up again later this week when DePaul welcomes California of the Pac 10 to the Allstate Arena a day after Morgan State of the MEAC invades Milwaukee.

Not that Cal is some basketball power, but driving from Chicago on a Friday evening to watch Morgan State is just not going to happen.

Would you drive up from Chicago to see Cal?  Because Cal is something you've heard of and Morgan State isn't?  Just trying to figure out your "logic."

And to think I thought you drove from Chicago to see Marquette.

I'm sure Dominic, Jerel, Wes, Lazar, Ooze and the rest of the team are heartened to know that you don't think they're worth watching unless they're playing someone like Cal.

[PuertoRicanNightmare]

I might drive up to see Cal, or I might not. I will definitely not drive up to see Morgan State, nor would I ever consider it. I'm sure, in your eyes, that makes me some how a "lesser" fan. I don't really care. The home non-conference schedule stinks. Period. And I think the thousands of empty seats at these games backs me up. I saw photos from Saturday's game. It looked like the Raynor Library in there.

You live in Chicago, would you pay for UIC tix or Loyola tix?  Doubt it.  They aren't your team.  When I lived in Milw., I didn't have UWM tix (I wasn't exclusive enough to be among the lucky 2000 that do  ).  They weren't my team.  If someone offered me UW football team vs. Michigan, I'd pass (unless I could sell them  ).  I just don't care about UW football.   My point, who really cares who the opponent is, fans should go cheer for their team, not based on who they are playing.  I believe that would be the definition of fairweather fan.  And this is coming from someone that has liked the Cubs prior (no pun intended) since before 2003. 

[PuertoRicanNightmare]

Actually, I would pay for Loyola tickets, but not UIC. I've always been a fan of Loyola...since the days of Alfrederick Hughes.

I hope you're at least giving your unused MU tix to an alum or fan that will enjoy going to the game.
