How many Chipper puns should I try to make for this title?
I caught wind on Twitter that Chipper Jones is retiring. I haven’t kept up very much with Chipper or baseball in general for many years, but back in seventh or eighth grade, I fell hard for Chipper. I just happened to see his face flit across the TV during the game and I was instantly in love. He had that easy boyish grin that always hooks me. I watched the game to find out his…

Back in my day, you could see two not-terribly-popular basketball teams play for $5*
My mom and dad came to town yesterday evening to visit and do some baby squidging. Ray and I had been talking about going to a Grizzlies game, and dad had mentioned a while back he’d like to join us. So we headed to FedExForum for dad’s first NBA game ever, and our second time out of the house without Holden. I hadn’t bought tickets ahead of time because the Grizzlies were playing the Nuggets,…

Go Grizz
Put the ball in the basket a lot more than the other team, and keep your hands off the competition. Also, fundamentals. And try to sing upbeat montage tunes like the one dude pictured above. You’re welcome.

Day 100/365: Play Ball!
At long last, baseball season is here. Thanks to Jen, I got to get comfy in the work suite and watch one of the first games of the season among a dozen other fans. (Seriously, Memphis, what gives? Go see these games.) The game was uneventful and we lost, but there is nothing finer than the whistle of the wind and the crack of a bat and the oof of an error in a ballpark…

Day 38/365: Grizz Vs. Lakers
Paid good money for nosebleed tickets for the fella, since he is a Lakers enthusiast (and Derrick Caracter fanboy) and I am basically the best girlfriend ever. It was interesting to see that many people in FedExForum. And yes, I’ve been to a Tigers game. There were moments during the game where the Grizzlies seemed cohesive and like they were going to bowl over the Lakers without looking back. And then there were stretches of…

Good ol’ Rocky Top
Saturday afternoon my aunt Vicki and her crew — boyfriend Paul and friend Ralph — rolled into town for the UT-Memphis football game, an affair we had been planning for months. We had a few hours to kill and found ourselves at India Palace, heaping piles of deliciousness onto stark white buffet plates. Why is it that I can never remember to wait and get a big plate from the middle, and instead, always end…
