HATE WEEK - Memphis State

Memphis, dammit, stop.  Just stop.  Get off our our schedule.  We are tired of opening our season against you.  We are tired of having to watch your fans bow-leggedly walk through the Grove in cargo jorts and faded DeAngelo Williams Jerseys in between our horribly unpleasant visits to the rickety ass, hotter-than-hell Liberty Bowl.  We're done, and we're going to put this "rivalry" to bed on Sunday.  Goodbye, dammit.

Hate, hate, hate.  Ooh Lord does it feel good.  Cup fans, just open up your hearts and let that hate out!  There will be plenty of it this week, so I shan't waste it all in one far-too-early burst (that's what he said HEYO!), but I'll begin this week with this:

We're on patrol, motherfuckers.  WOOP WOOP HeLmEt MoBiLe!

It will be so good to finally get them off the schedule.

Also, love to see them scramble for a sport to support as their basketball program fades from dominance.

Come on guys, this is a rivalry!

We can’t let them off our schedule. This game means too much to us, and if we…Wait, what am I saying…

Seriously, I won’t be sorry to see this one go, and I hope we send it off with an ass whoopin.

T-I-G-E-R-S! Really? That’s your cheer. Damn I hate these people.

Memphis doesn't deserve your hate

I couldn’t give a rat’s ass about Memphis. There are way too many teams on our schedule that really have earned some Rebels7 hate and Tiger High is not one of them.

So, whatever, Memphis.

My favorite memory of playing Memphis at Orange Mound

It was 2005…O’s first year. Our kicker was setting up a chip shot field goal and missed badly. It wasn’t even in the ball park. It must have been a 20 yd kick and he missed wide left by about 30 yrds. It was a line drive rope that struck their tiger’s cage behind the corner of the end zone.

It was worth missing the field goal solely for that. Everyone in the stands could hear the ball rattle the walls of the cage.

true

I was there, and yes, I heard it hit the cage. I think it woke up the tiger from a nap if memory serves me…

I'd rather..

..play USM than Memphis if we just have to play a C-USA team. Having said that though, I’d take Memphis over Northern Arizona anyday.

You can find me at the Acme Oyster House next year...

We don’t have to play a C-USA team, ever. And opening with Memphis is something we should have gotten over a long time ago. We [almost] fill up their crappy sombrero stadium for them every other year & help keep their Athletic Dept out of bankruptcy, where it belongs – they sell about twice as many tickets to the Ole Miss game as they do to all their other home games. I’d much prefer they drift off into irrelevance. I’m delighted that next year we’re trading Memphis City College for Tulane, an excellent road trip. See you at Acme.
