Good morning West Texans and all you good, fine, friendly folks out there who wish you were . . .

It is one of the great triumphs of my life, so I’m proud to announce that I will not be held hostage tonight waiting for the finale of Lost. Never seen it. Don’t feel worse of for it. If you like it, good for you.

Now, as we sit and wait on Tech and Nebraska to start the final game of their series with Tech’s NCAA chances clinging to a thread, we thought we’d pass along a couple of links for you on a Sunday.

If you’re into management strategy, own your own business or just like to read cool stuff you need to check out the Six Discipline’s site. You can find great links to other articles as well as quick thoughts on their blog. Very good place to start your day.

For you Ranger fan’s out there that like a little deeper analysis you need to go to Baseball Times in Arlington. Well written with different takes than what you’ll get in the DMN or The Star Telegram.

If you’ve got any links or websites you’d like to share with us feel free to post them here today.

Now back to the Red Raiders. If they win today they’ll still need to win at least one game at the Big 12 Tournament to feel safe about getting an NCAA Tournament bid. If no win today they have to go beat Texas, win their pool and then with the title game. Four straight wins. One for sure without Chad Bettis. Not gonna happen.

Bobby Doran goes today. If ever a guy took the ball thinking he needed to hold on to it for nine innings, today would be the day. There just isn’t a lot of help in the pen right now you feel good about, particularly after Johnson threw Saturday. The best thing that could happen is for Taylor Ashby Joey Kenworthy and the rest of the bats to wake up and bash their way into the NCAA’s old school style. Go win a 15-10 game and get on with it.

Here’s to Ken McQueen where ever you are. Thanks for helping wreck a season. I hope you feel good about it.
