	Memphis Mad Dogs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Mad Dogs were part of a failed attempt to expand the CFL into the United States.
		On a positive note, the Mad Dogs were known for their strong defensive work that was rated second, behind Edmonton, in the CFL for giving up the least amount of points with 364, due in large part to the strong defensive play of Tim Cofield and Rodney Harding.
		Memphis ended the 1995 CFL season with a 9-9-0 regular season record, which placed them in fourth place of the Southern Division, causing them to miss the play-offs in their only season of existence in the CFL.

	Stallions '95: Game 8
		Memphis wide receiver Nick Mystrom, the team's emergency kicker - he replaced Donald Igwebuike, who was detained in Memphis by work visa problems - then kicked his third field goal of the night with six minutes left to give Memphis a 25-12 lead.
		Memphis (4-4) surprised the Stallions from the outset, as Perkins and running backs Al Shipman (59 yards, 9.8 average) and Charles Miles (33 yards, 4.7 average) sliced through the middle of the Baltimore defense.
		Memphis coach Pepper Rodgers was ecstatic with the Mad Dogs' offense, and saluted Foggie.

	Joe Horn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Memphis Mad Dogs coach, Pepper Rodgers, got this tape and offered Horn a contract.
		He was signed by the Memphis Mad Dogs of the Canadian Football League for the 1995 season, where he led his team in receptions (71) and receiving yards (1414).
		Horn was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the fifth round of the 1996 NFL draft.

	Stallions '95: Game 9
		Carlos Huerta kicked a 20-yard field goal midway through the fourth quarter, and Memphis coach Pepper Rodgers did the Baltimore Stallions an enormous favor with some questionable goal-line offensive strategy, as the Baltimore Stallions recovered from a disastrous start to escape with a 16-13 victory over the Mad Dogs at the Liberty Bowl last night.
		Late in the first quarter, Memphis decided to go for a first down on a third and-one at their 48, a strategy that worked near midfield on its opening possession.
		After Huerta's field goal, Memphis tied the score at 13 on a drive aided by a roughing the kicker call against Bryant, who took too much of an inside angle on punter Aaron Kanner and plowed into him after missing the block by inches.

		Memphis magazine, the Memphis Flyer, and the Commercial Appeal, as well as several music-oriented tabloids, publish listings of major concerts and nightclub performances.
		The Sunset Symphony, traditionally the climaxing event of the annual Memphis in May International Festival, is perhaps the Memphis Symphony's best-loved event-and with tens of thousands of listeners lining the river bluff, certainly its best-attended.
		For the general outdoorsman, Memphis sits in the middle of one of the richest hunting and fishing areas in the nation.

	CFL
		The Mad Dogs were a part of the CFL's brief expansion into the US market.
		According to the CFL, the original Alouettes, the Concordes and the "new" Alouettes are considered the same franchise, despite the name change and a nine-year absence of a team in Montreal from 1987 until 1995.
		While the "new game with different rules" attracted a certain amount of support from football fans in the US, it soon became obvious that, particularly in the absence of a major television contract, it would be very difficult for the CFL to introduce Americans to the Canadian game and market it effectively.

	The CFL in America
		The Mad Dogs were owned by the man who also owned Federal Express and coached by Pepper Rodgers, who had also coached at UCLA and the Memphis Showboats of the USFL.

		The Mad Dogs did have a strong defense, with players like ends Tim Cofield and Rodney Harding.

	The Memphis Flyer: Music Reviews - August 28, 1997
		SANDY CARROLL, A NATIVE OF West Tennessee, has been a fixture of the local music scene for some time now, a veteran gigger whose history dates back to the dark ages of Beale Street, when a handful of tiny clubs were struggling to keep that sacred space for the blues alive and kicking.
		In addition to her talents as a singer-songwriter, Carroll also tickles some mean ivory, as displayed on the live cut "Bad Dog Boogie" (originally commissioned as the theme song for the now-defunct Memphis Mad Dogs football team).
		I would counsel Madder Rose to abandon their quest for that "perfect melodic groove," as the result makes them sound more like the Thompson Twins than the Velvet Underground (a band they've been compared to in the past.) At least a return to their former occasional raucousness would keep us awake.

		He was a good southern boy and I guess his ties with the Memphis Grizzlies of the USFL made him the "guy" to coach the Mad Dogs.
		August in Memphis is miserable- heat and humidity- not football weather at all.
		But the Mad Dogs (and Shreveport Pirates, and Las Vegas Posse) were about as good as the Montreal Machine was in the old World League - which is to say not very good at all.

	The Tiger & Tiger Cub Mascots :: These furry creatures have been providing entertainment to Clemson fans for years.
		Joined in 1993 by The Tiger Cub, these furry creatures can be seen imitating game officials (which is now against the rules), signing autographs, getting their picture taken with dignitaries (President Reagan, President Bush, Olympic athletes, among others), shooting the cannon, or doing "Pushups" each time Clemson scores.
		Two of the fan favorite mascots were the all-time pushup leader (2,216) Mike Bays ('94-'97) who was third in the 1996 UCA National Mascot Championships and Chris Peters ('92-'93) who spent the 1995 football season as the mascot of the Memphis Mad Dogs of the World Football League.
		The "Eye of the Tiger" will always shine bright for the Clemson mascot due to an endowment set-up by Stuart McWhorter ('88-89) and his father Clayton in 1995.
