He should have picked against the Vols outa meanness. He picked them because of his softball team. Lol.
He did aight. I was hoping for Penny though. I'm not sure what the batmobile had to do with anything. Is ther an inside story otherwise that was weird. But whatever. The crowd was great and the signs were good. I'm fricking grumpy as hell I couldn't be there
He owns the batmobile. I saw him driving it around a year or so ago. I told my wife that I bet Lawler shows up in his batmobile. Nailed it!

If you want to put on a show, you invite a showman. Lawler is a showman.

They should have had the 'balsm wood/cardboard' chair ready for him to bust Corso. Would have been an ESPN classic.

Pat freaking McAfee was the guest picker last week.
He was a freaking punter.
When?
Typically on 4th down.

In a University of Memphis football city I hope the SEC bottom feeders enjoyed the show
My older brother is a huge Viles fan - he also lives in Nashville but I try not to hold that against him too much - and he texted me right before the game ended and said "well hell, looks like The Tigers are the best foot ball team in the state for the 3rd straight year". HA, it killed him to say that.

Not in my opinion. But I understand Memphis and Memphians. Onward.

Please try to not be condescending.
It may come as a surprise to you but rasslin fans follow something today known as sports entertainment.
They don't think it's is MMA.
BTW, Lawler is a HOFer

Lawler has a huge 60-70s memorabilia collection, and yes it's a repro if I remember correctly but it is his car.
