"The Grizzlies have played their season opener at home in all seven seasons since moving to Memphis. They are 0-7 in those games.

Perhaps a change in venue is what the team needs to get off to a good start. The Grizzlies open their 2008-09 campaign Oct. 29 at Houston. Their first home game will be Oct. 31 when the Orlando Magic come to FedExForum.

The Grizzlies will appear on national television just once this season, that being their annual Martin Luther King, Jr. game, which will be Jan. 19 against the Detroit Pistons. The game will air on TNT at 4:30 p.m."
