    I can't bring myself to root for any team in Tennessee. Grizzlies basketball fans are mostly made up of middle aged dudes from Germantown, Cordova, Collierville, Olive Branch and Horn Lake who want to claim being from Memphis and on Twitter and message boards try to turn into Lil Wyte and Frayser Boy. I'm not buying it Tucker! I equate them the same as the throw it in the dirt guy from Ole Miss. God awfully annoying and don't really know the game.

    This feels like you have other issues not related to basketball or the Grizzlies lol

    Not a fan of people who pretend to be something they know they are not. And there's a ton of that in that area. Saw it during the Memphis game up there this year. Germantown is absolutely not Memphis Memphis.

    What does that have anything to do with the Grizzlies. Do you just want people in the metro area to not attend the games?

    Support the team yes, don't pretend you're from Whitehaven or Orange Mound when you're there or on Twitter. You can support a team without turning into an insufferable twat. It's no different to me than the redneck rebel flag portion of the Ole Miss fan base trying to act like they are above State fans and calling State Moo U. Support your team, but don't pretend to be something you are not.
