Isaac Simpson (36-18) (21-4) 🌊🐻🐯

It’s working on my end

I was shocked to see the Tigers as 3.5pt underdogs today. I thought Memphis would be a TD+ favorite. Definitely feel like it’s a game they should win & easy travel for Tiger fans but Wed night a week b4 Xmas & a bad bowl payout. Definitely was hoping for better.

WNBA Schedule just dropped…I usually go to DAL every year for Liberty/Wings but planned on switching it up & going to ATL for Liberty/Dream this year. Guess I’ll stretch it out & catch my sorry ass #WhiteSox 8/20 against the Braves & Liberty/Dream 8/23.

I would say over the 6 remaining non-con games they have 5-1 with the one loss coming in the Q1 games would be the ideal realistic goal.

Tigers still have what would currently be two Q1 opportunities (@ Clemson, Miss St.) & two Q2s (Ole Miss, @ Virginia) remaining in the non-con. With the way the AAC is shaping up these games are even more important this year than they’ve been in the past.

Both Memphis games this week (LA Tech/Ark St.) will be Q3 games. You were hoping they’d end up Q2 but LA Tech took a bad loss to Southern & Ark St. lost a couple of games they were favored in over the weekend.

What better time than any for Bane to fully come out of his slump but a trip to Dallas. We know the vendetta he has against them for passing him up in the draft. He usually plays well there.

#Grizz 2gms out of 1st place in the western conference & only 3.5 back of the best record in the league. I don’t care about comp. level etc. with the injuries they’ve had & fighting against their own coach at times that’s super impressive! My prediction of (52-30) well in play.

They even got down in OT & STILL continued to battle & knock down big shots! Shoutout to PJ Carter… 9pts all in OT. Big 3ptr & 6-6 from the line. It takes a tremendous amount of mental toughness & fortitude to do what they just did. Hope they aren’t outta gas for tomorrow!

I don’t even know how to put that win into words! In that scenario…when you’re the underdog & you blow a lead like that then go into OT without your best player you lose that game 99% of the time. 🧵 (1/2)

UAB was picked to win the American and they are now 3-3 w/ losses to Vermont, High Point & Longwood. 😏

If they can find a way to come out of Maui with two wins I think you feel really good coming back to the 901 as in doing so you’ve likely knocked off a top 10 team & would be in position to be ranked yourself at that point.

If Memphis were to lose to UCONN they’d likely get Colorado on Tue who was picked to finish 15th in the Big 12. If you win that game there is a good chance that you get a shot at another top 10 ranked team in the 3rd game on Wed. Potentially Iowa St. or Auburn.

Huge win last night for the Tigers! Like I said previously you feel really good going into Maui 4-0. Not that I’m conceding an L to UCONN already there certainly any shame if that ends up being the case but it feels much better going into that game off a W. 🏠 💰 IMO. Just go take your shot!

Think I’m getting a sinus infection 🤦🏽‍♂️
Got some antibiotics here. Hope I can head it off.

Please do!

Welcome to the light side I guess I should say if Twitter is the dark side lol!

Big game tonight for the Tigers. A chance to put a 4th solid win in your back pocket going into Maui. You feel really good heading to the islands at 4-0. The goal is obviously to win the whole thing but if you somehow come out 2-1 I think you’d definitely take that.

*same trajectory

Nah, just reading the tea leaves & projecting forward. If it stays on this sane trajectory I could definitely see it happening. There is a definite disconnect compared to years past. Maybe they get on a run & it changes around but I don’t like the vibe right now.

but if something doesn’t change I could definitely see that being a possibility. It’s just no longer the same as it was in many aspects & I don’t know if it can be recaptured.

partly due to rising ticket prices in addition to what I said above. You add that to the obvious issues we’re trying to overcome as a city I can see Pera deciding that in the future it’s best to try to go elsewhere. Some may call this fear mongering (2/3) 🧵

I’m really starting to feel like there is a real scenario in the next several years that the Grizzlies leave Memphis as it feels like they’ve lost the soul of the city. The connection that used to be there isn’t at all. The attendance has dropped significantly… (1/2) 🧵

Yo! 👀

I’m a Liberty fan so naturally I was going to go w/ the Mist but Rose Club will definitely be good as well

LEGGO! #Unrivaled

Ashton said in an interview the other day that Dallas is his preferred destination as he’s from TX & so is the majority of his family. Sounds like he’s a Cowboys fan. They definitely need a RB in the worst way!

Ashton Jeanty or Tetairoa McMillan to the #DallasCowboys

Yall trippin. Pineapple & Canadian bacon 🔥🔥🔥

I’ve come to the conclusion that most people who say it doesn’t belong haven’t actually tried it lol

Ben Johnson offensive coordinator from the Lions would be my top choice but that’s too good of a hire for Jerry. More likely it ends up being Belichick or some other retread.
