If there is one thing fanatical college basketball fans enjoy as much as their school's winning, it's hating other players. Often a collective hatred amongst these fans builds and is directed at one or two players each year. In 98 it was Wojo. From 2002 - 2006 it was JJ. This year it was DumbleDorf. There have been others, but this is like a creme de la creme of douchebaggery.
*Sidebar: This isn't even figuring into account Devendorf's domestic violence issues. He really exists in a cone of hatred all his own.
Well faithful readers, there seems to be a new General to lead the charge against all decent basketball fans. His name is Mike Marra. And if you are a fan of the Big East - get used to the name. He hails from Massachusetts, and by all accounts (pictures of him) he is a horrible horrible person. I would bet my life savings ($636 tax return) on my guess that the word ambassador and the name Mike Marra never appear in the same sentence. That is unless the sentence is: Mike Marra is a great ambassador of poon tang - and the sentence is posted as a facebook status for Mike Marra.
I find it hard to keep a straight face when looking at this guy. Let's hope for the sake of non-Louisville fans this guy plays and plays a lot. For the Louisville fans: First. I'm terribly sorry about the Women's loss to UCONN. I know how excited you guys were about that. Second. I will be amazed if you guys are able to find a way to root for Mike Marra. It's been impressive the past three years to watch as you got behind Edgar Sosa. It's going to be an absolute miracle on hardwood if Mike Marra is able to develop a fan base in Louisville. I just hope he's around for four years. He seems like a one and done kind of guy. Not one and done to the NBA, but more one and done to jail or AA.

According to Kentucky Sports Radio, your man Mike Marra and UK recruit Jon Hood became best of friends during the Derby Classic. I think fans of both programs are going to have something to be embarrassed about for the next four years.
ReplyDeleteThough it is approaching the deadling to file taxes. I have a feeling Hood only befriended Marra in an attempt to get some filing advice.
ReplyDeleteIn reference to Marra's prominent tattoo of a clown wearing a straight jacket, I'll quote the Admiral's response that "it's pretty amazing that Siva's skull tat is not going to be the worst on UofL's recruiting class."
