Belgian Drug Testing, Grizzlies Win The 2nd Overall Pick

Beautiful weather in Memphis so far this week. Perfect for lawn work, boat drinks by a pool or celebrating Frog Jumping Jubilee Day.

Has anyone heard about the drug testing story out of Belgium? At a recent body building championship, contestants (all of them) literally ran away when drug testers arrived at the event. There must have been a misunderstanding. How funny is that? It sounds like something you would see on Family Guy.

The Grizzlies moved into the Top 3 picks in this evenings NBA draft. Odds had the Memphis taking the 6th overall pick, but the draft gods were on the Grizzlies side awarding them the 2nd overall pick in tonight's NBA Draft Lottery. Draft experts are thinking the Grizzlies will take the best player available at the time, so look for them to select from Ricky Rubio (PG/Spain), Hasheem Thabeet (C/UCONN) or James Hardin (G/Arizona State). This is assuming that Blake Griffin goes to the Clippers as the #1 overall pick. The draft will be held in June. Let's not screw this one up Grizz management.


Ladies and gentlemen, Clarence "Frogman" Henry.
