Sports Yappin': Who will be next first-time national champion, part 1
Indiana broke through the glass ceiling with a national championship. What other programs can follow in the Hoosiers' footsteps?
open.substack.com
Decided to tap into the Substack gimmick and just start yappin' about stuff that I find interesting. I figured it's a good way to keep the writing skills sharp and start experimenting with different things.
Anyway, a future congrats to Lubbock and Tempe.

RIP to Jesse Jackson, who in this debate w/David Duke in 1977 delivered (until the host cut him off) a message of unity and against "national isolationism" that's important to hear today. He also ended the show w/one of the sickest burns ever directed at Duke: "You're not even a legitimate Klansman"

My mom pulled me out of school when I was eight to attend this protest in Tallahassee. I didn’t really understand what was going on at the time until years later, but knew it was a big deal because Jesse Jackson was there.

Obama: "At some point, you age out. You're not connected directly to the immediate struggles that folks are going through. I'm not making a hard and fast rule here, but I think Democrats do well when we have candidates who are plugged into the moment. To the zeitgeist. To the times."
