It's still a mystery how they got voted into the league. If the Catholic schools did not want them and UConn and Cincy abstained from the vote - who they hell voted them in?

I would like someone to explain this, too. I don't believe that UConn and Cincy abstained, by the way. But why wouldn't the BB schools have enough votes to not vote them in? Pitt and Syracuse weren't voting.

I re-read the statement by the Marquette president. He says that the BE didn't do due diligence before adding them. And he's upset that he had no input. He doesn't discuss the voting, but the BB schools must have voted them in regardless of the fact that he didn't like it.


On Tulane joining the Big East:
“I was not pleased that we issued an invitation to Tulane without any diligence to what effect that would have on our basketball product, the draw on our RPI and other such things. I was disappointed that I wasn’t able to participate as a member of the conference in the deliberation that went into adding that. There might be well articulated and very deep reasons why you would do it otherwise. But dog-gone-it, I’m not concerned about that. I’m concerned about making sure that Marquette is in a position that it can take advantage of the great investment it’s made in being successful in basketball.”

Might be a little generous to the Money Pit don't you think. Consider Casablanca in lieu of three or four.
 
"Caveman" with Ringo Starr and John Matuszak is top 5. You cannot deny that. Also, that old gang flick, "Warriors". "Waarrioors...come out and plaayyaayy..."

I enjoyed The Money Pit.
 
1. The Godfather Part II
2. Goodfellas
3. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
 
Red Dawn is also top 5. So is Goodfellas. Last but not least, Cheech and Chong.
