TJ Simers Gets One Final Dig at Memphis Columnist Geoff Calkins on the Way Out of Town
The TJ Simers-Geoff Calkins media slap fest was fun. I’ll miss it. Simers delivered his parting shot in today’s LA Times:
The Grizzlies were supposed to be the better team, with fans holding up “Believe Memphis” towels and a newspaper columnist here detailing the intangibles early on that would separate Memphis from L.A.
But while the columnist moves on now to write about the minor league baseball team here or the town’s best bowlers, the Clippers have already landed in San Antonio — and with no need of a plane to get them there.
If the Clippers make things with the Spurs interesting, perhaps Simers can start a feud someone at the Express News. Buck Harvey, perhaps? [LA Times]

I suppose this zinger would make sense if I clicked the link, but we all know that’s not going to happen.

A note to all non-LA residents… No one likes Simers. He is the biggest tool ever…
