Tiger basketball

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!

Absolutely !!!

Tubby wasn't MY mama.

You sure?

Nice outfits.

Mama just fired a man
She wrote a big ol check
Sent him packing, cleared the decks
Mama hired another coach,
One who’s gonna take us all the way!

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

Exactly. Stupid poll, as stated, with opinions given by the casual fan, not a poll that was taken city wide. Sounds like $EC and Grizz fans were the only ones polled. This has always been and always will be a Tiger town, regardless of what some trolls on here (one in particular) who hide behind the guise of being a Tiger fan.

I can't believe there is not a good Garth original video of this...

Good post - Tiger Hoops I could see,,,,,,,,,

No, the poll was an intro to the annual Memphis Most City Magazine poll. They're talking up the Memphis Most poll big time, across many different categories. The favorite sports team poll wasn't just for the casual fans, which would have been apparent had you listened to the call-ins. The poll results are as follows - and these are similar to recent Memphis Most results by Memphis Magazine.

Grizzlies 46%
Tiger BASKETBALL 33%
Tiger and Vols football tied at 9%

Calkins actually guessed the order before the poll began. I'll trust the perspective of someone who's been paid to write columns and books on the Memphis sports scene for 22 years over a certain myopic, one-trick pony football only on a message board.

First off you're more troll than I thought (9% Tiger football? yea right), understandable though coming from a 2 trick pony Grizz, $EC football fan. Your true troll colors are showing brighter than ever. But hey, keep on keeping on hiding behind the guise of being a Tiger fan (had me fooled for awhile), of which you're not. Done dealing with you K2, dealing with you (troll) is a waste of my time and pointless to say the least. So see ya, and have a nice day.

^^

I'm simply reporting the results sir. You and Southaven and the rest of the football only's have always been so, so bitter and defensive. Looks like that won't change.

Tiger basketball, Grizzlies, Redbirds, NFL, college football, Alliance Memphis football, USL soccer, NHL

I'm a huge sports fan, General. You have a pleasant day also.

Jeebus.

Do they not sell Schaeffer or Schlitz in your area?

they do, I was just guessing what ST's favorite beer probably is

I certainly could see Schaeffer, Schlitz or PBR in his wheelhouse as well

Well K2, it's over. Cylioats found you out. Pretty good cover. Post thousands of times here 14 years under the 'guise of being a Tiger fan'. I'll watch for your story on the Discovery Channel's 'I Almost Got Away With It'.

yea Mark, I should have kept those Liberty Bowl ticket stubs for all the 20+ Tiger football games I went to growing up

But hey, I'll worry more about how some curmudgeon defines fandom.

Never.
