I love the Vancouver Grizzlies team - do you know much about them?
I know that the Vancouver Grizzlies basketball team are from Canada out of Vancouver, British Columbia.
Yes - and they are now the Memphis Grizzlies
Yes I heard!  They relocated after 2000 - 2001 season to Memphis, TN.  
Basketball is such a fun sport - I am glad the seasons are so long. 
Agreed.  In Memphis baseball, golf, and tennis are real popular too.
yes - I'd rather check out Vancouver - I heard it's beautiful.  I wonder why they moved. 
Not sure... But remember Memphis is the 2nd biggest metropolitan area in TN.  That means a bigger crowd. 
oh that's true - probably more 'fans' there than in Vancouver since basketball is so popular in the US, right?
