Apologies for no post yesterday. I wasn’t sick or in a bad mood or anything like that. There simply wasn’t much news to report! It happens sometimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Congratulations to Memphis Tigers point guard Kendric Davis, named a third-team All-American<\/a> this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s official: Memphis in May has signed the deal<\/a> to rent Tom Lee Park, and Music Fest and BBQ Fest will be back there this year. No more figuring out how to get to the barren wasteland known as Tiger Lane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Well, it’s happened… following last night’s loss to the Lakers, the Grizzlies have dropped to 3rd place in the Western Conference. Both Memphis and Sacramento are 7.5 games back of first, but I guess the Kings hold the tiebreaker because they’re listed as second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After years of mediocrity, the Sacramento Kings have evolved into ballers. Maybe they should nickname their city “Ball Sac.” That’d make a heck of a slogan for a playoff towel giveaway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Next up: The Grizz return home Thursday to host Golden State (6:30 PM, TNT). Excited to have them back, not only because it’s easier to get W’s at home, but because I’ll get to catch up with my TV. producer buddy. Shrek, can’t wait to hear your road stories and thoughts on the Ja situation. I have some stories for you as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Weather<\/a>: Rain likely, maybe a thunderstorm, 54\/49. Windy. Sounds more like a November day than a March day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Loflin Yard will have a South Seas party<\/a> all day Saturday, March 25. Tropical drink and food specials, plus the roll-out of the new spring menu. Prize for the best tropical shirt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sunny D comes out with a vodka seltzer<\/a> this weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today is National Be Nasty Day<\/a>. Don’t tempt me with a good time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n No more traffic stops by unmarked MPD vehicles.<\/a> The City Council passed a resolution yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n DJ Alpha WhIskey, Nico, and NYA perform at Ladies’ Night<\/a> at Central Station tomorrow. No cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Broom Closet hosts a group hypnosis session to relieve anxiety and stress<\/a> tonight from 6 to 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That’s it for today. Stay dry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Apologies for no post yesterday. I wasn’t sick or in a bad mood or anything like that. There simply wasn’t much news to report!
