congrats to jeb for being recognized as long time fan and supporter

I wonder why we still love Vincent Askew? Isn't he a criminal? Sexual assault? I know for a fact he dined and dashed at the Belmont Grill when he was still in the NBA and legitimately couldn't pay his bill.

I am guessing you wouldn't feel the same way if it was your 16 year old daughter he had sex with.

LOL. You are what's wrong with this board. Guys so passionate about the Tigers they will defend ex-players who rape minors. Get a clue dude. I am sure you will have a host of other posters come to your defense and neg rep me because you have way more "friends" on here, but this is why this place is a total fantasy land.

I am sure you want to compare my not so perfect life of having a short fuse or a lead foot and getting a lot of speeding tickets to a guy who had sex with a 16 year old girl. You probably completed some sort of post doctorate program to draw that parallel didn't you?

When are we gonna bring back Larry Bush to honor him?

well.....let see...we don't like all the choices Vincent Askew made in his life.

But hey.... liking what someone does is different from supporting the person to connect with his own self improvement.

We all support the improvement of Vincent Askew. And the reason so many of us know him at all is because he was once a Tiger.

So to the improvement of all Tigers. It's ongoing.

Excuse me judge, can we let Xavier Crawford have a furlough for an evening or two? Brother Bluto would like to celebrate his accomplishments to the University of Memphis (formerly Memphis State University) as an outstanding football player.

Now we're gettin' somewhere.

There is definitely more than one way to look at this issue; but, again, if we support the improvement of every human being, it's not like that includes cheering their past choices or actions.

Probably sounds kind of simplistic, but it does keep one out of the business of judging others. I mean who wants to judge others...you couldn't pay me to do that.

They werent giving out good conduct medals. We were honoring good basketball. X-man wouldn't be able to make the ceremony anyway. Plus he was a disappointment as a player. Now go jump back on your cross Jesus.

Bitter or not, showing up would be a good first step.

No truth to this bizarre statement at all.

No truth to what, that Gary and Calkins talked about this the other day? That is 100% true, I heard it as well. Gary even shared a story where he was sitting next to Keith at some event and somebody approached him and told him he should have Keith on his show some time and Keith made a gesture indicating that Gary would have to pay him to get him on the show.

No it is precisely true that they discussed this topic. You can listen to the show recording.

Asked Geoff about it. Said Parrish mentioned HE HAD HEARD that Keith was disappointed he was not a member of staff. Very definitive info.

Keith would not last a full season if he were. Too shy, doesn't like to fly, etc etc.

He said he had heard it over and over again from multiple sources
