I’m totally irrational. I’ve decided the Memphis Grizzlies will win 3-in-a-row vs the Warriors. Improbable, yes, but this is the glass half full post-Covid Carson.
I literally just shed a tear watching a man comeback from a personal meltdown, piece it all back together somehow, rebuild his frame and mental state, and beat the best golfers in the world. Incredible. I don’t think I’ve ever witnessed a bigger sporting moment.

What an amazing season for Memphis. They are way early here. Wayyyyy ahead of schedule. I’m honestly grateful. Here’s to the many years ahead. Thank you
@memgrizz
Just spoke with an ESPN Exec. He confirmed Memphis is absolutely in the meeting now for next week’s Gameday as Bear, Herbstreit, etc have teased. The very obvious thing is they both need to win this week. Decision hasn’t been made yet though. Go Mustangs (this week), Go Tigers.
Elliott Perry was awesome before a
#4
and
#2
pick. Add what he does for the city, kids, mentor, Tiger, and being a good person. Dude needs a key to the City of Memphis.
Good news. Memphis has such a large lead that the ESPN2 announcer is discussing Central BBQ as best Barbeque and Bros Junipers for Breakfast.

Taylor Jenkins after today's practice addressing the Grizzlies being called "dirty".
"We're the furthest thing from dirty, we're competitive. So, I want that to be squashed pretty quick here."

So just so I have this straight. The TSSAA approved tackle football in Shelby County today. In this same week Shelby County said no kids in classrooms. Am I getting this correct?
More national eyeballs coming for

I don’t see Grizzlies passing on Morant. He’s 19... solid 6’3” guard. Averaged 27 points last 2 years of HS. NCAA season assists leader (2019) OVC Player of the Year (2019) Averaged double double 2nd year at MSU. High percentage shooter. Athlete. Don’t overthink this.
I’d actually go the opposite way with Parsons. I know it’s not practical. Maybe out of spite. Just ....Play that dude like 40 minutes a game. I mean....You’re healthy now? You wanna play? All right big boy. Here ya go!
Dude on CBS Madness-cast called it the worse loss in Kentucky basketball history. We are all Peacock’s tonight y’all. Like Memphis winning twice to a lot of fans.
So we sat down in our seats tonight in the tickets I bought last Saturday, and what do you know? I get the pleasure of sitting next to the great Allie Prescott & his lovely wife beaming as Memphis beat SMU. What perfect night.
😞 Keith has been a part of the fabric of Gary’s show & 929 from the very beginning. What you heard from Keith was real. Wherever I went folks in Memphis would ask me about Keith & “hobos heroes & street corner clowns”. Keith demonstrated the value of authenticity. Godspeed Keith
I hate to share such sad news. But at the request of his wife, I wanted to let you know that Keith Easterwood — who was a longtime coach, big part of my radio show, and great friend — died this morning. Today is his birthday. He turned 60 just before he passed.
@EasterwoodKeith
Dudes names John Konchar and Killian Tillie are giving the Lakers the Business tonight. You love to see it. Unless you’re one of the many Faker Fans who just bought fresh yellow.
There might be nothing more fun working in a small market when a Jordan-eque figure in Ja Morant says thanks to national TV for taking the Grizzlies off the flex schedule after bombing another team.
As massive as Penny Hardaway is in America and Memphis, it’s a trip seeing all the Larry Brown selfies around town. Dude is truly gettin’ in the selfie / pic game in this city. Beautiful.
