The prayer requested by General Patton near Bastogne in December 1944. Christmas in another place and time worth remembering in 2025.

The El Salvador video that CBS pulled but was apparently shown in Canada. Posted by Cory Booker yesterday. For those who haven't viewed.

Just a bit on the Heisman Race in 1971. Ed Marinaro of Cornell was the leading rusher in the country and the East Coast media put on a huge campaign for him. He went on to play for the Vikings and then a fairly successful career as an actor. Pat had a tremendous game against undefeated...

Sullivan received his Heisman the week before the Bama game and had by far his worst game of the year!

We all have seen enough of the games over time to know how difficult it is to judge specific match ups and how they may go in the game. Has Indiana been tested to the degree that Alabama has? Probably not! Just based on games over time, all it would take is for Ty to have time and success in...

Venables has made life rough on Alabama at Clemson and obviously at Oklahoma. I believe the Alabama offense will need to play measurably better in all phases in order to pull this one out. I am not sure that Grubb has a game plan in him to contend with Venables defense other than having the...

I agree that the spike in electricity and natural gas prices coupled with our antiquated distribution system will make solar much more attractive from a pay back standpoint. As a first step I am trying to force myself to develop a solar station for charging batteries for back up power. It has...

I agree that it makes no sense to purchase an electric car and then charge it with electricity generated at a coal fired plant. This is similar to eviromentalist decrying the use of peat moss and advocating for use of coconut coir that must be transported from the South Pacific region. All of...

Having been involved in a significant private equity deal and following the business through several iterations with the last one being an IPO, I can see the challenges of involving private equity at the university level. The only value proposition I see for equity investors is a valuation...

Yes, with a team full of walking and out for the season players playing a top three team .... it never was a game. Go to a nice bowl game in Florida rather than go into a process of playing Oklahoma again and the winner getting an opportunity to play in Columbus in mid winter. The team and...

How many times did Germine Bernard touch the football? They bring 7 much of the night and the Bama offense seldom gets the ball out quickly to one of their best athletes in a one on one match up?

Difficult to admit but I believe Texas is a stronger team than Bama at this point in the season. I was impressed with their run game and the fact that their defense held up well against a talented undefeated A&M team that obviously has a QB that is impressive out of the pocket.

The main point in this is that Ukranian strikes have already diminshed Russian refined petroleum production for their domestic and foreign markets. Due to sanctions Russia is already relying on largely uninsured "shadow fleet " to ship their petroleum products at a highly discounted price...

We have a very serious problem in restocking any missiles now due to China's extremely tight controls on shipping rare earth magnets that are directed to defense manufacturers. This has become a major strategic blunder for the US to have not developed other sources.

From my perspective the primary issue for Russia is an economic one. Their capability to finance their war depends on oil revenue. They don't have the ability to fund the war through debt in the manner the US has foolishly done too many times. Cut off their ability to refine and ship oil and...

This was reported on France 24 this AM in Europe. How Witkoff coached the Russians on how to appeal to Trump. I continue to be amazed at how impotent the Europeans are relative to Trump!

My question is Auburn's front four - front seven equal to or stronger than Oklahoma's? Just being realistic, given all of the past games there, it is reasonable to expect a mad house and a gut wrenching game. As others have said there have to be options to get the ball out quickly otherwise Ty...

Unfortunately there are so many self serving and ill informed moves that will have a negative impact on this country for years to come. Perhap the most immediate is the administrations attempt to force Ukraine to cede land to Russia and give up Ukraines long established defensive positions...

This may be an exaggeration but based on watching Ole Miss vs Oklahoma and Ole Miss in general under Kiffen. I would tend to think that Kiffen could take Ty and Bernard and with his schemes have the best offense in college football. I tend to believe that Grubb hasn't adapted to the defensive...

The OU Defense dominated the game. Handled the run game, put constant pressure on Ty, and covered the passing game the entire game. Just an outstanding defensive plan and effort on their part.
