Vote for the Vols!

A friend of mine forwarded this to me:


Subject: Need Help

Hey everyone:

I need a little help here. If any of you watch Sportscenter you know
that they are doing a "50 States in 50 Days Tour" of the United States.
Well, on their website you can vote for best venues and moments in
Tennessee History.

You go to
http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/sportsnation...g?event_id=1455
and vote for you favorite venues, players, etc.... Here is where I
need your help. Apparently the only people voting are from Memphis b/c
as of right now, the most memorable moment is a Univ. of Memphis
basketball game and Best place to watch an event is the Liberty Bowl,
with Neyland coming in second.&nbs! p; Please for the sake of all that
is right, fill out the survey it takes two minutes. The Liberty Bowl
for goodness sakes. Oh, also the Memphis Grizzlies are leading for
favorite in state team. Hell hath frozen over. PLEASE HELP THIS IS AN
EMERGENCY!!!!!!!

I just voted and the results are embarrasing :banghead: As far as I'm concerned, Anfernee Hardaway and the people voting for him might as well be from Arkansas or Mississippi as a poll of true Tennesseeans would not have that punk ranked as high as he is...

 

[cookeville_vol]

Just to let everybody know, you can and need to vote more than once.

Sure is funny how the second most popular answers seem to be the "real" ones. I voted for all of the 2nd most popular answers--1999 Fiesta Bowl, Neyland, Reggie, Peyton, UT Football, UT-Fla. rivalry, etc.

Keep the vote rolling, The poll looks to be making a swing! :thumbsup:

the memphis morons really peeve me off after seeing those polls......i mean is memphis really part of tennessee? couldnt we just cut them off i mean they are 7 hours from neyland they shouldnt be allowed to vote lol

Arkansas and Ole Miss shoudl have a playoff game for control of Memphis. Whoever wins gets control!

I'm for just sawing off that little worthless corner of the state and floating her down the Mississippi. I think it would make a great island out in the middle of the Caribbean. Who knows? Maybe the next hurricane would come right through and put all the Memphians out of their misery.

 

[kiddiedoc]

Wow, this is a lot closer than before. VOTE VOTE VOTE AND VOTE AGAIN!!! I don't want to be embarrassed on Sportscenter any worse than we already get treated.

 

[utvolpj]

GO VOTE!! Peyton is tied with Keith Lee (???) for best in-state career.

7) Best in-state college career?


29.3% Peyton Manning, Univ. of Tennessee

29.3% Keith Lee, Univ. of Memphis

I still don't understand this one though...

4) Favorite Tennessee team?


47.3% Memphis Grizzlies

44.0% Univ. of Tennessee (football)

 

[kiddiedoc]

When did Memphis get a basketball team? Is that WNBA?

Just kidding. You know we're all members of the GrizNation. Shoot, I just got my Griz Navy flag this week.

[cookeville_vol]

Isn't that a little too nice of a title for a gator?

 

[GatorVille]

I would wear it with pride.

Yes, but I am a Mod and therefore am forced to show some semblance of class.

 

[GatorVille]

What would you suggest OWB?

I don't believe in calling our rival posters names. It's bad enough that we are going to beat you on the field this year. I don't wanna make you really sad by adding a name onto that.
