Grizzlies fans in FedExForum were confused who the team picked. Karim Lopez was, too. “I didn’t find out who had actually selected me until after (I was on stage). I think I had that Pistons hat for like 15 minutes." My latest feature: dailymemphian.com/subscriber/sec…

Asked a contractor pal about the $13M paint job peeling off the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. Him: I knew that'd happen. Me: How? Him: You can't rush that kind of job. The pool bottom has to be really dry or it'll exude water. And you have to clean it like a mofo first...

@HistoryWJacob Low scoring? The most common NFL game score is 20-17, which is 2 touchdowns and 1 or 2 FGs. Just because the NFL scores 6 points for a TD instead of 1, it has a higher score? That’s the equivalent to a 3-2 soccer game

History With Jacob@HistoryWJacob·
Okay, since you asked, here’s my American opinion. Soccer will never be as popular in America as football for 3 reasons: 1. The Fake Injuries Players are incentivized to flop because the other team is more likely to get a penalty. In football, it is the opposite. If a player has a real injury, play toughs it out and plays through it, it is seen as heroic. Americans like toughness and grit. 2. Chance Goals Many goals are scored by chance as opposed to skill. The chaos at the net when the ball is near is remarkable. Defenders blocking the goalie’s line of sight. The ball bouncing and ricocheting off of random body parts often determines if the ball goes in the net or out of bounds. In football, there are some elements of chance, but because players are allowed to use their hands, the points are primarily scored based on skill. Less is left to chance. Americans like control. 3. Low Scoring In football, it is still challenging to score, but it happens much more often. Also, every play has a chance for gratification and excitement: a first down, a big catch, a big hit, a sack, an interception, etc American like constant excitement.

@BradCarson Then again, if it’s Peterson vs Wilson, I might be persuaded. I would just do that due diligence with Kansas or anyone that has info on him.

@cerrito @BradCarson not only did you just get burned by a big talent with problematic personality, look at the teams that are successful right now. Great locker rooms and leaders. I would avoid Peterson based on what we know now.

Who is in the brown hat sitting courtside that has almost ran on the court 5 times? That’s crazy. Any other game or arena he’d be done. Is he a former Knick?

NEW: Memphis AD Ed Scott said he hasn't talked to Penny Hardaway about a contract extension, because he wants him to concentrate on getting the program back on track. He also said a bunch more about Penny/MBB during his @929espn interview earlier today. commercialappeal.com/story/sports/c…

The iconic green subway entrance railings and globes have been a fixture of New York City for decades. Now they're orange and blue. And for the first time, the globes are basketballs. Finals week hits different in New York.

@JohnMartin929 the swimming record is primarily attributed to the now banned suit, rather than any PEDs. Without the suit, no way they’re breaking the record.

@MonoO521 @latenightercom @CBS @NFL If you watch a minute of Comics Unleashed, you would be against it. I left on CBS after the final Colbert episode and this comics show is terrible. Like truly terrible. Every laugh from the crowd is canned and planned

In the ad break following Colbert's final 'Late Show' monologue, viewers got a reminder that Byron Allen's 'Comics Unleashed' will be moving into the 11:35 CBS time slot.
