Marquette History X

This Thursday, Tom Crean’s Marquette squad takes on Tom Izzo’s Michigan St. team in a match-up of coaching student-pupil that will be blown way out of proportion by the announcers’ audio-fellatio. Do not be distracted by this cornpone family plotline, what you need to be focused on is the abomination that is gymrat extraordinaire Drew Neitzel.dn

It isn’t because he can’t play. He can.

He threw up a line of 15/6/6 in beating Kevin Durant’s Texas Longhorns and dropped 28 on Wisconsin, ensuring the Badgers #1 ranking was kaput in under 24 hours.

From a basketball perspective, Neitzel is a gamer, a ferocious baller that any fan could get behind.

The bigger issue here is that he is the spitting Aryan doppelganger of Danny Vinyard, the Edward Furlong character in American History X.

And if there’s one thing I hate, it’s Edward Furlong…I kid, Eddie, I kid. I love Pecker and Detroit Rock City.

But neo-Nazis really stick in my craw.

I hate to cast aspersions on Neitzel’s politics, but his skinned pate speaks for itself.

_1793817_historyx300As Danny Vinyard says, “I believe in death, destruction, filth, chaos and greed.”

We don’t need that kind of attitude in the round of the “thirsty thirty-two” (trademark pending.)

We’re on to you, Neitzel.

Go Marquette.

Beats that mentor-mentee angle anyway.
