Seems like just yesterday @Jon_Roser was kicking a can down Beale St and wondering where life was gonna take him. And now, 5 years later, he’s being celebrated by the @memgrizz organization

Mary’s birthday is on race day, so we had to improvise this year. There’s not a more beautiful place to run in Memphis than The Old Forest in Overton Park. Such an awesome surprise to see my girls during my last mile. ❤️ 26.2 ✔️#ForTheKids #StJudeMarathon

You really can't take your eye off of your phone for even a minute at Wifflestock.
PS: That's West Memphis Wiffle Legend Justin Riley posting selfies from my phone.
PPS: I hope folks realize West Memphis is the Wiffle capital of the world.

Like Jordan, we left a sport on top to focus on another sport that we weren’t very good at…golf. Now, we’re coming out of retirement to win another trophy. Let’s go hit some wiffleballs over the fence this weekend, . 🏆🏆#TheLastWiffleDance #Wifflestock2022

Not to mention the backlog...

Davidson County, where Nashville is located, has nearly $1 billion in water infrastructure needs over the next five years alone, costing local taxpayers nearly $1400 per person.
They're spending $1.26 billion on a stadium... to replace one built in 1999... for a billionaire. twitter.com/TnCoNews1/stat…

Nice to meet you, too! I wish we could have talked more about baseball. Instead, we’re both worried sick about our families and friends back in Memphis. Praying for our city tonight. 🙏🏻

Nice to finally meet @MarkMcCleskey after years of knowing each other through Grizz Twitter! He saw my tweet and said hey I’m in centerfield 
Memphis is on both of our minds tonight, but baseball at Wrigley at least a welcome, brief distraction.

Hat-tip, #5. That was pretty cool.

Albert Pujols' pinch-hit go-ahead 2-run home run for career HR No. 695 is quite the way to end his career versus Cubs.
This was Pujols' 59th career homer against the #Cubs, his 2nd most vs. any team. The only team he victimized more with the long ball are the Astros (62 homers).

Since Iowa is trending, there’s a relatively new Iowan-owned restaurant in town. Tenero Cafe and Butcher @ Poplar and Mendenhall. Memphis desperately needed another great breakfast option. It’s so awesome. 🔥🔥🔥
