If only he were a regular poster on the boards and you could ask him ... or if only he had an e-mail address on his column ...

I am pretty sure that realistic and I had Marty at the same time and used class time to debate the proper pronunciation of Celebre.

this is true.... that was the one where Marty threw the entire class out one day, right?

Absolutely.  Good times.

I have a good Marty story.

I had him for some politics class my junior year.  Anyway, the final paper was supposed to be 15 pages, but he had put off a few other papers untill the end as well, so we only had 2 weeks instead of the normal 4 or whatever to do a paper of that size.  So these two kids that knew him better than most, started to complain that the paper should be 10 and that they wouldnt do anymore.  So Marty flips out, and grabs his stuff and basically said he was not comming back to class unless everyone agreed to the 15 pages.  So the two kids were basically like "no, 15 is too much, 10 is good)  So Marty goes "you are a bunch of ****in assholes" (or something to that effect) and he storms out of the room.  the two kids eventually ran after him and we still had to agree to the 15 pages.  He was still pissed about the whole situation though.  Classic Marty though.

Wow - Taking some public jabs @ Budcrew!  He's probably checking around the NASCAR message boards to see if Junior is going to be in the 38. 

MIOH is looking forward to this weeks ATR for the East.

Yeah Pat I'm thinking you misconstrued my question as having a negative tone when I was just asking if it will continually come in later so I won't check everytime there is a front page article about ATR only to find there is nothing for this particular region.  Did that question truly merit losing karma?  Sometimes I think people are a bit quick on the trigger.  And I find asking in general over this forum when I am already signed on to be easier than writing an email, plus I figured he would see it if he was posting (which he hasn't in a while) but thanks for the unjustified sarcasm.

No he wasn't taking a public jab at Budcrew, he was just being needlessly sarcastic towards me for asking an honest question. 

[Pat Coleman]

However, asking me or the posters on this board isn't really very useful. You can ask the writer himself!

The only thing posters can provide is speculation. There is also the very useful personal message function to talk to Budcrew himself.

[boobyhasgameyo]

Yes I understand that, but with all of the information and questions that have been asked here before it's not so much of a stretch if somebody would already known the answer because maybe it was discussed before.  But I don't want to argue my point, I just wanted to set the record straight that I wasn't being malicious and that I truly wanted to know if it would consistently come in later, so when I sign back on and see a sarcastic response as well as losing 3 karma points it's just a little irritating. 

[boobyhasgameyo]

and look it's here, perfect timing...

[Pat Coleman]

See, I wasn't even taking it as malicious -- but I could easily see the discussion turning that direction if there was prolonged speculation as to why this might be the case. That's why I was really hoping you could make use of the various other tools we have put at everyone's disposal.

[boobyhasgameyo]

Yeah I will next time, apologies for it even going down this path.  In other news, you all will be happy to know booby had a dream about Fisher playing Ithaca last night.  This tends to happen in the weeks leading up to the game, much like the groundhog in PA it is becoming a nature induced time honored tradition. 




*Post #600.  So many people I need to thank!  First and foremost my parents for never being there for me and instead letting the computer raise me giving me the savvy needed to post at d3football.com.  Second I'd like to thank the Fisher program for continuing to be a success because lord knows if they were consistently 0-10 I would have vanished faster than Jonathan Taylor Thomas's career (yeah remember him??)  Third I would like to thank all those who made d3football.com without which I would never be able to post and probably be forced to use all that extra time to better my life, and who wants that?*

Don't you mean a nightmare?


JU-

I (and one other poster who shall remain name and title-less) was on Marty's Model UN team... one year the hotel f'ed up and didn't put all the students on the same floor. He proceded to throw a conniption at the hotel reception guy, and as the students kind of crowded around, trying to get him to calm down, telling him it was okay, he famously pounded his fists on the desk yelling "I will NOT be patronized by my students!!!"

I hate to have all these negative stories about the guy though. He is truly dedicated to teaching and his students; I actually worry about him retiring, that's how invested he is in his career. One of the best professor-friends I made at IC, if not the best. Funny as hell when he wanted to be, too. And a huge Yankee fan.

[boobyhasgameyo]

ha MIOH it is no fight, I took the Gandhi approach and declared peace and non violence.  but +k for the picture, pink is the new blue.   

[maninorangehat]

Boobs- Congrats on #600
