PrintWith offense to OnMilwaukee.com intended, we're doing a Top 100 list. Why? For the same reason OnMilwaukee.com does them: they're an easy, cheap, half-a**ed way to get pageviews.
"Hey everybody, look! We made a list and you're on it!"
This list is compiled of some of our favorite people on Twitter. Since we're (allegedly) a Marquette Basketball blog, it leans heavily on Marquette athletics. But other cool Milwaukee and Wisconsin people are on this list, too. We don't discriminate.

Since the Admiral compiled his list in roughly eight minutes, it was inevitable that some deserving Twitterers were mistakenly omitted (and that some undeserving Twitterers -- read: Badger fans -- snuck onto the list). We apologize for the oversights. Here are some of the most glaring omissions:
101 @mattfisher84 - Tremendous upside potential for this young MU fan.
102 @mykenk - Mike is the rare non-MU alum who's willing to defend MU's pride against Madison infidels.
103 @BrewCrewBall - The Snowman is easy to overlook. He only writes for 137 different blogs, including this one.
104 @miketotheg - Tremendous value pick right here. Take Mike G at 104, and you'll win your Fantasy Twitter League.
105 @mjwizzy - Made a cool shirt, sources say.

101 @mattfisher84
Tremendous upside potential for this young go-getter.
I’m not smart enough to look at the other stuff and do anything but drool and mumble.
102 @mykenk
The rarest of birds: a non-MU alum who’s not afraid to stick up for MU against Madison bullies. Also: he’s an actuary, which sounds awesome.
I’m not smart enough to look at the other stuff and do anything but drool and mumble.
This whole thing feels like "Whose Line is It Anyways?"
The points are made up and the score doesn’t matter.
My two favorite teams are the Tigers and Brewers. Drunk tigers. That sounds about right.

AEs biggest fan!
And he also likes Sconnie. Time to shut it down boys.
Mykenk got left off the list. Shruggity.
In the interest of full disclosure:
there was a formal complaint lodged with the Admiral over your inclusion on this list.
I’m not smart enough to look at the other stuff and do anything but drool and mumble.
I haven't been able to work this into any of our conversations, and I'm tired of waiting to bust it out, so
apropos of nothing:
COOKIES ON DOWELS.
I’m not smart enough to look at the other stuff and do anything but drool and mumble.
The Admiral
The Admiral deeply apologizes to mykenk. That was a gross misjudgment not having you on the list. My bad

You know ...
there’s an easy workaround for that: you could take us off and put him on.
I’m not smart enough to look at the other stuff and do anything but drool and mumble.
does the fact that i'm married to a MU alum (undergrad & law) bump me up?
I’m sure I can get into the top 50 on that from56
"That's not a weird stat. Rickie is a run-scorer," Yost said. "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter," Yost told reporters. "See, you guys have no concept. He's a run-scorer. So there's nothing weird about it. That's what he does."
103 @BrewCrewBall
It’s not like he’s on the FUCKING MASTHEAD or anything.
This is the worst list ever.

I'm sick of seeing Drew's weight tweeted every morning.
Orson Swindle would kick his ass, even holding his son Magnus.

This is a grievous oversight.

I miss Chucke Hacks.
And every time I try to check a twitter account I find myself typing @fuckyoutwitter instead of the account I’ve heard that occasionally tweets things that don’t make me feel like an idiot for reading it.
I’m old.

I would like to read from my prepared statement now
It’s an honor to be on the list. I want to thank God and my family. We’ve put in a lot of hard work on this Twitter and we’re going to keep at it. We’ve got a lot of tough opponents out there this year and I’m just getting the boys ready to play.

Travesty
I will no longer be able to root for Marquette because of my absence on the list. I also cannot just put them in the final four every year on my bracket anymore.

Two Lessons
1) Never fight a land war in Russia
2) Don’t MU deep into the tournament
As a German and an MU fan, I know these two facts all too well.

OK, the list has been updated.
Also, the Admiral has been busted down to Seaman for his oversights. I knew he got that promotion too quickly.

Where … is @ScoutMarquette … on this … list …
