Just learned that the Big 12 which has 10 teams signed a lucrative deal with Fox. Both new teams in the PAC 12 have lost to their “state” rivals. Well that’s enough football except to say I do not pick Texas Tech to finish in the top four. After I write this will see what the Red Raiders did against the powerful Texas State. Now for my views on the rest of the week. Am happy to see that one of the Voyagers is headed into outer space. members of my extended family will be there to greet it. Many of you are waiting for my analysis of the Democratic Convention. I will say this, they lost the falling balloon contest. Will this be a factor that turns the election to the GOP? Could balloon lovers in rural Ohio make this the seminal event that decides the future of our nation? Wives of both candidates gave probably better speeches than their husbands. And how about Clinton? Almost everybody love him now. Was it always so?
In addition to the Convention, Amazon has introduced a whole bunch of tablets and new e-readers. Talk about American innovation. We need to keep it going!! How to do this? Invest in the future of education by raising the pensions of retired teachers. I have run an exhaustive study that finds this would puts us in the top of something in the world of education. Even better for the people that putting pure cane sugar back into our sugary drinks. Speaking of studies they have found that exercise is good for you unless you do too much and injure yourselves.
