    Charles Cross, Mississippi State

    I think Ole Miss had 2 players on the active rosters, at least according to the ones on the interwebs: Patriots - Ben Brown; Seahawks - Jared Ivey

    Day 9....

    Whatever they did, it worked great and they should get their kudos since they catch the other end regularly (deservedly). MLGW didn’t have a single outage. Only 12 people lost power at “peak storm”, and those appeared to be isolated incidents.

    Atmosphere was electric today

    The visitor side (where we sat the first half) and student section were scalding hot. I saw or my wife (nurse) assisted 3 people who passed out or were going down. Glad a friend invited us to 210 for the second half, or we might have watched the second half from the house, too. Why does football...

    OT: Sad that 2 of the top10 violent crime cities are in Tennessee......

    It didn’t hurt that Amy Weirich was trash. Difference between Memphis and most cities on the list that gives me hope - Mayor Young is excellent, understands what needs to be fixed, and is focused on partnering with the groups who can bring about change rather than picking fights with them. I

    Football: worst recruiting class in recent memory?

    We just had a kid go to weekends at State and Tennessee back to back. He likely wont play for either, but his bias was toward State until he went for the recruiting weekends. He said it was extremely unorganized, which shocked him, and Tennessee’s weekend was executed flawlessly. That may not be...

    EPL ….

    Glad to see that my uninformed opinion (they should get rid of him) given to the London cab driver panned out. I took my family to see the 4-1 Brighton loss in person on our family vacation. I am not a fan, just thought it would be a cool, non-touristy experience. It was incredible! I am still...

    Savannah Bananas

    I was at the game tonight with my family. It was a great time and seemed to have appeal to all ages. They keep the fans engaged pretty well for two hours which surprised me for a baseball game.

    OT: Made in the USA

    The intellectual property angle isn't talked about enough. People scream free trade, but China doesn't play by the same rules as the free world. Limited original ideas and poaching tech is not allowed anywhere else, yet we are willing to ignore China doing exactly that to get cheap stuff. And...

    Grizz fire Taylor Jenkins

    I didn't think they would fire him, but I have been hoping for a change for a while. His roster mismanagement (minutes allocations, never playing same 5 twice, etc.) has made cohesiveness tough - even beyond injuries, refusal to challenge game changing calls for years now (and then not using...

    Anyone else ready for Dak to demand a trade?

    This is simply not true. Dak's receivers get zero separation, which was extremely apparent against Green Bay. Josh Allen has Gabe Davis at #6 in the League and Khalil Shakir at #12. Lamar Jackson has Odell, when he is healthy at #8, and stud tight end in Mark Andrews (which Ferguson may turn out...

    OT What do you do in Key West other

    Just got back from Key West on a couples trip and had a great time. I second getting a house with a pool in old town. We took the sea plane out to Dry Tortugas which was fantastic. It is more expensive than the ferry (still expensive), but it is a great experience and maximizes your time. We...

    NET rankings make no sense

    Jerry Palm said, on the radio this morning, that NET is largely influenced by margin of victory. I have no idea if that is true, but our team is not one that blows people out.

    Eliza Fletcher update:

    To bring this back to the original topic, from right-leaning individual, the City of Memphis has actually done a great job stifling riots, supporting police, etc. A lot of that has to do with faith leaders in the City (Memphis, not the burbs) showing a solidified front and doing what they can...

    Grizz beat the poo outta the Warriors

    Clowns on here sound like Barkley's dubmass. The Grizz have led the majority of this series and not closed out games. The Warriors are experienced closers. The Warriors better not "let the Grizz win" or "not try to win" too much longer at their old NBA-ages, because the Grizzlies are going to...

    Ja Morant airlines.

    Good video from Drebin’s viewpoint https://twitter.com/bartotoss/status/1487626883432955907?s=21 The block by Bane to start the sequence was great as well
