Memphis Flounders In Monthly Rankings

This month's Metro Grade in Men's Health seems an appropriate bookend to our post yesterday about Memphis' meager score as a walkable city.

This month's ranking in Men's Health of America's largest 100 cities addressed the question: "Where our cars are killing us." The subtitle asks: "green drivers or fossil fuels?"

Memphis ranked #80.

This monthly feature often presents a revealing portrait of Memphis - even with its men-focused approach - such as the month that ranked our city #69 for places where men have the best sex.

We clearly should have been #1 for places where dumb men have sex. Memphis was #100 in condom sales and #8 in birth rate.

Well, duh.

#100 in condom sales, #8 in births and the best sex is #69, it just doesn't add up!
Sorry, but, you put the numbers out there, and the trap was laid.
