Tears would make love grow..

Robin says, 'I’m not sure I’m ready to throw my body on top of a toddler today in order to ensure his survival.'
Robin is a friend of mine who moved away to Boston.
However, this does not mean she is any less of a Memphis girl at heart, or that she has lost one iota of her "Tiger Pride".
She has started a new blog called Dirty South, Displaced.
She's been writing about what the Tigers' basketball season means not just to her personally, but to the city itself and all of us that are a part of it.
This post (entitled I am going to throw up on my shoes) is especially well written and poignant and would be a great thing to let friends who aren't from Memphis read to understand what it's like to be from here a little better.

April - Haha! I thought about putting up a picture of some hell of scary tiger, but that one just called to me.

M. - It most definitely is. I hope she keeps going with it even after we win it all.
