This jealousy that folks here in San Antonio have of Austin is almost on the level of Memphians' jealousy toward Nashville. It's sad and funny at the same time.
Maybe a similar rivalry but SA is no Memphis with all due respect, and does not share the same level of disparity as Memphis may have from Nashville. San Antonio is more on par with Austin in many regards, some things superior and some inferior.
