The Memphis, you know, Grizzlies love that verbal crutch

A verbal crutch is a word you use to link sentences together inappropriately or as a replacement for a natural pause. Common ones include "um," "ah," "like," "so," "now," "we're talking about practice" and "you know." Griz forward Zach Randolph (notes) is especially fond of that, you know, last one. Take a pause, man.

Cheers, "bystandervarios" and The Commercial Appeal.
