On Calkins show this morning, they were doing one of those stupid "who's the top sports team in Memphis?". Of course, the battle between the Tiger Basketball team and the Grizzlies was going strong, and some people actually said UT, Dallas Cowboys, etc. We all know its...
Tiger basketball
Grizzlies
tiger football
sec football
who cares

Anyway, caller called in to end the discussion once and for all, paraphrasing...

The Grizzlies are like your girl friend, they're pretty, they might leave you, etc
The Tigers are like your mama, she raised you, takes care of you and will be there for you no matter what!

Loved it!

I heard that, it was great!

I can't argue with either of the top two, and it appears that the city agrees

good stuff

At least go with the original and not a cover version.

After listening to that, it's easy to understand why folks at those shows had to be drugged out of their minds. Sounded like cats in a bag fighting.

I opened this thread expecting to read “we saw their buttholes get tight”

Thanks ... Let's not pour rott gut when Woodford Reserve is available.

I apologize in advance for the following video.

Completely blocked this from my memory banks like a car crash or seeing a dog get hit by a car.

This is pathetic puke.

Don't watch.

Well, if Tiger basketball is like your mamas...I hope you guys take better care of your mamas when they are struggling.

Technically what Caulkins was saying was “For the casual sports fan” ....Not which team has more fans...

Sometimes mom shacks up with a guy she shouldn't have. Sometimes mom wanders into a back alley. Sometimes you have to bail mom out. But, she's still your mama and you still love her and she loves you no matter what!

He wasn’t saying “Which team has more fans?” He asked for the casual, non diehard fans which team has more casual fans? He argued the Grizzlies and stated most people 21 and under grew up Grizz fans but not necessarily Tiger Basketball fans ...In reference to his son and his friends
