Nominate the above quote for possibly the 'most ignorant post of all time'

because he could care less about the Grizz. He's a motorhead, don't ya know.

I hope the Grizz got permission from his father before drafting him.

RE: Xavier Henry drafted by the Grizz!
why does it always seem that the grizz pick a player with some sort of negative history with the tigers?

Anyone thinking the Grizzlies make their picks based on anything to do with the Tigers positively or negatively has serious issues.

I never said they base it on that, I said its just "seems" that way, a coincidence if you will.

Obviously you have never been to Michael Heisley's secret "I hate the Tigers" lair in the volcano of his secret island on Lake Michigan....he really really hates the Tigers.

did not know this, but not too surprising...from the CA

At No. 25, the Grizzlies selected Dominique Jones, a 6-4, 205-pound guard from South Florida -- then sold his rights to Dallas for cash.

Dallas basically told us to draft him in order to get they money. We are going to use that money to retain Rudy Gay, according to Verno.

Sounds like a plan. Now keeping Gay and Ronnie Brewer adds to the core. Our draft tonight made the bench MUCH stronger. Slowly the pieces come together.

First Henry then that turd from Maryland ("da ACC") who dissed the Tigers. The Grizzlies' fat a$$ owner is on a run. The only sort of 'run' fat a$$ ever does I'm sure.

Bingo Mark. And if you'll forgive me, I'm going to use your signature line in my next post.

Or are we supposed to hate him because he said 'CUSA was a weak league' before the Tigers played Maryland in the 2009 NCAA's? Welcome to Memphis Grevious! Nearly everyone is glad you're here!

He made stupid comments about the Tigers, but he is acceptable IMO. He paid dearly for his error and acted graciously after the game. I hope he helps the Griz make the playoffs next year.

Overall a good draft although I would have loved to have Bledsoe. The Grizz wanted Damien James but he went right before they picked

Actually I don't care who the Grizzlies drafted or didn't draft. But I do care about this ... Heisley, give the Tigers better court dates and times you money grubber. And quit acting like you own the FedExForum, Mr. Buttwipe. That's all.
