This thread is still going, huh? This thread is more of an incident than GA's dinner.

I think threads like this are a result of the desire to talk about Tiger Sports with not a lot of solid news to discuss yet.

Once we hear about some scrimmages or starters are named, then it will back off of threads like this one and focus more on actual sports talk.... At least I really hope it does!!

Man, slow day around here.

Slow summer. I blame Phil Stukenborg and Tom Bowen

Yep. The qualifications for "Tiger" related threads is at an all time low.

"So, I was peeling away the flesh of a hooker with a blowtorch and lo and behold she had a flying M Tiger tattoo on her a-s."

You have to be the biggest wuss of all time to call what he did "bullying".

Grow a pair and atleast pretend to be a man.

Look, the Internet tough guy showed up.

Making friends fast I see.

How will I ever survive if someone online doesn't like me?

I am sorry but calling someone a bully and a terrorist for telling a manager something like "I don't like that you don't represent the city in which you are doing business, but do support rivals".... wow! No wonder most people cant have a decent conversation anymore. PC run wild!!!

Using your logic, wouldn't you be a bully and terrorist for trying to subvert his 1st Ammendment right?!!

Yes. John44932 is a terrorist and a bully, and he hurt my feelings. I'm upset about it, and I want someone with authority to protect me from such hateful speech......Hey! This is kinda fun! Now I see what the PC crowd is all fired up about.

I hope not. Fat Larrys right down the street is much better but doesn't have the prime location or Starbucks building Baby Jacks has

Go to Fat Larrys if you like sitting at the table with no silverware, empty drink glasses and an owner too lazy to help the servers catch up when they get behind.

Spot on, should call it Lazy Larry's , dude has zero customer skills.

I have to hunt and forage all my own food, but I really think I'm getting through to them. Memphis gear will be up in these places in no time.

Let me know which places get Mempho gear up first... I'm pretty starved!

That was cute, but do you think that a BBQ joint in Oxford which has only Mississippi State and Memphis stuff on the wall would receive any comments or lose business? We both know the answer to that, don't we?

I gotcha, but Oxford is a true college town, not a suburb of a large city that happens to have colleges.

To your point, though, given the overall quality of the BBQ places in Oxford (not all of them, mind you), Craig could open a Central BBQ on the Square with a huge mural of Pouncer taking a crap on Col Reb and Rebel Black Bear and it would put 85% of the BBQ places in Oxford out of business in 3 months.

I doubt anyone in Oxford knoww ho Pouncer is nor do they care. My understanding is the black bear is not well liked anyway based on a shirt I saw showing Colonel Reb shooting and killing the Black Bear. I found humor in that.

Nope. Still there....right next to Corky's.

They sold Memphis gear long before the 07-08 season. I purchased a few items from them online around 05 when I lived in Florida.

Yes, they've been around a while. They have a ton of Tiger gear...some really nice stuff. They also carry Grizz gear sometimes. But I do hate to give them my business.

I believe it is going out of business and going to become a college station. At least that is what I have been told by the business in same strip mall.

so, did GA ever take these folks a pennant?

I tried Ty's today. EXCELLENT. Highly recommend. The dry ribs were very good and my wife said the pork plate was good as well. Everyone needs to give this place a visit.
