Good morning West Texans and all you good, fine, friendly folks out there who wish you were . . .
- I’m still not buying into the idea that LP&L should have bought out Excel Energy. I really don’t think the citizens of Lubbock want the City buying out private business, eliminating competition and doing it all without voter review. That Mayor Tom Martin and others are doing a full-court press trying to spin how great an idea this is after the fact reminds me of how the Obama Administration tells me Health Care reform is really good and that I’m just too stupid to understand and that I just need more “education” on the matter. We’ll see.
- The Flatlanders are back in the Hubbaplex Saturday night at The Cactus Theater. It goes without saying, but if you haven’t seen them you need to. Living, breathing Lubbock musical history and talent.
- OSU’s Dez Bryant is entering the NFL draft. Shocker. Wonder if Eugene Parker will be his agent? Something still doesn’t smell right on this story. If all he did was “lie” to the NCAA I can’t see how that should be a full-year suspension while programs like USC and others wait years and years for “justice”. Right. The NCAA needs to come out with more on this story for me to believe it is justified in the punishment.
- It is sad that college football player Brandon Spikes of Florida has more maturity and integrity than his head coach Urban Meyer, the SEC Commissioner and anyone else associated with his program. Spikes has extended his suspension from one half against Vandy to the full-game for trying to gouge the eyes of a Georgia player. Urban Meyer has no code. He’ll fit in well at Notre Dame soon.
- I’ll take the #14 to win at Texas this weekend. Just so long as it isn’t a repeat for the #24 I’ll be a happy man getting back on the RV late Sunday.
