Not true at all. Where do you live? Dyersburg?

I hate the VOLS, but I see clearly they are the states largest fan base.


nashville...i never said the vols werent the largest fanbase in the state...but if you add in all of the georgia, auburn, bama, kentucky, lsu, vandy, arkansas, florida, etc. that hate the vols they are way out numbered here. its even worse in memphis where the rebels have a ton of fans.

I hate alabama but Demeko Ryans is my favorite texan.

So I doubt signing Payton manning is going to turn off many Titens/ uga fans

Lots of Butthurt coming from Houston fans. Guess they still hate Bud Adams and everything he does.

Yes, Adams is getting old as shite and as said several times that he really wants a Super Bowl before he dies. But, regardless, this is a genius move if they can pull it off. The amount of money that the Titans will reap from this for years and years to come is what makes it brilliant. The Titans sign Peyton and all the sudden, one of the smaller market teams in the league is on ESPN damn near every day until the season starts.

You are correct about the Nashville area. However, you get outside of Nashville and will find 80%-90% of the people are Vols fans (except Memphis).

This would bring East and West TN into the Titans camp and bring significant dollars. For example, doesn't the Knoxville TV market usually get the Colts games now?
