  1. Don't let them get on you Chris, kiss those boots! And perhaps send flowers.

    You'd think you would have learned about the importance of bootlicking when you lost out on that Plain Dealer gig.

    You're still not good enough, Ace. :D

    If only I were about 10 years down the line. This is basically my dream job.
     
  4. I don't know what some of you are smoking, but as a city, Memphis sucks.

    The job is primo, however.

    major college beat experience is definitely preferred, but not mandatory.

    Actually, Memphis is an incredible city. But I guess to each his own.

    Memphis is a very nice town. This is obviously a very good job. For what it's worth, dealing with Calipari is really not that bad. Keeps one busy, though.

    I spent a few days in Memphis for work and thought it was a great city.

    I'm a big fan of Memphis, having been there for work a couple of times. Calipari can be a hassle, but his team should be huge next year. What else is left in Conference USA besides UAB?

    I've not worked in Memphis, but I've done a substantial about with Calipari. He's never given me many problems.

    Echo that, bdh02. Nothing like Huggins. :D
     
  12. Maybe it's just me, then. I thought Memphis was hot, dirty and Beale Street was overblown.

    Although the barbecue is pretty good.
