July 30, 2014 by MemphiSport Leave a Comment

The Grizzlies are your favorite team and it is not even close. Maybe it is the personalities, or perhaps it is the fact that they won 50 plus games this year. Whatever the reason is, you guys really love the Grit and Grind culture that the Grizzlies represent.

Memphis Grizzlies, First Place: 41%
U of M Men’s Basketball, Second Place: 22%
Mississippi Riverkings, Third Place: 14%

2014 M Awards: Favorite Basketball Player

July 25, 2014 by MemphiSport Leave a Comment

Surprisingly no University of Memphis Tigers made the Favorite Basketball Player list. Does Hoop City really like the Grizzlies this much, or is this an indictment on how disappointed Memphians are in the performance of the Tigers men’s basketball program?

Tony Allen, First Place: 26%
Marc Gasol, Second Place (Tie): 18%
Zach Randolph, Second Place (Tie): 18%

2014 M Awards: Favorite Football Player

July 24, 2014 by MemphiSport Leave a Comment

Memphians sure do love themselves some DeAngelo Williams. It does not matter that he last suited up for the Tigers in the Motor City Bowl in 2005 (he did set a Motor City Bowl record for most rushing yards that game). More importantly which second place finish hurts Peyton Manning more, this one in the M Awards or the one he had in the Super Bowl?

DeAngelo Williams, First Place: 38%
Peyton Manning, Second Place: 33%
Michael Oher, Third Place (Tie): 8%
Donte Moncrief, Third Place (Tie): 8%
