These are proper Texas nachos. You'll note that each chip is individually stacked with the ingredients (the dip is in the middle). This way, you don't have a giant pile o'crap, with the risk of pulling out a "dry" chip, or a chip that's so overloaded it breaks - forcing you to send in a rescue chip.

Each nacho perfect. That's the Texas way. Every time I've treated out-of-staters to Texas nachos they ALWAYS immediately understood, and loved them.

"Today everybody wants to talk about their rights and their privileges.
50 years ago, people talked about their obligation and responsibility.
You have obligations to other people.
If you want to fail, you have the right to fail.
You do not have the right to cause other people to fail because you do not do everything to the very best of your ability."

[Lou Holtz @CoachLouHoltz88]

Louis Leo “Lou” Holtz, legendary college football coach, Hall of Famer, bestselling author, and one of America’s most influential motivational voices, has passed away at the age of 89 in Orlando, Florida, surrounded by family. Born January 6, 1937, in Follansbee, West Virginia, Holtz rose from humble beginnings to become one of the most respected figures in college athletics. Over a remarkable five‑decade career, he led college programs at William & Mary, NC State, Arkansas, Minnesota, Notre Dame, and South Carolina.  He transformed every team he inherited and captured the 1988 National Championship with the Fighting Irish. Holtz was preceded in death by his beloved wife of more than 50 years, Beth, with whom he shared a life grounded in faith, devotion, and service.

Holtz is remembered for his enduring values of faith, family, service, and an unwavering belief in the potential of others. His influence extended far beyond the football field through the Holtz Charitable Foundation and the many players, colleagues, and communities shaped by his leadership. He is survived by his four children, nine grandchildren, and two great‑grandchildren. Funeral arrangements, including a Mass of Christian Burial at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart at the University of Notre Dame, will be announced as details are finalized.

@iJordanMoore @SethCPayne “That’s how football works” is quite an absurd statement when talking to an NFL vet, sir

I do not. It was a bad loss 13 years ago. Those who have been in the arena know, sometimes it doesn’t go your way and you live with that.

My most recent memory in that stadium is much more positive. When I walked in for the Bills-Patriots game in December, the lovely older woman working the beer stand on the 1st level concourse just outside the press box gave me a Christmas gift with a very kind note. That was a first, quite unexpected and a delightful gesture.

I was flying Southwest from Dallas to New York. Three rows ahead of me, there was a young soldier in uniform. He looked barely 18. He was staring straight ahead, gripping the armrests. He looked nervous. When the drink cart came around, the flight attendant asked him what he wanted. 'Coke, please,' he said. 'Heading home?' she asked kindly. 'No, ma'am,' he said. 'Deploying. First time.' The whole row went quiet. The flight attendant didn't say a word. she handed him his Coke. Then, she got on the PA system. 'Ladies and gentlemen, we have a very special guest in Row 8 today. Private Miller is on his first deployment to serve our country. Since I can't buy him a drink, I’m going to ask a favor. If you want to write him a note of encouragement, pass it forward.' I grabbed a napkin. I wrote: 'You got this. Stay safe. - A dad from Row 12.' I watched as napkins traveled up the aisle. Napkins, receipts, pages torn from books. By the time we landed, the soldier had a pile of paper on his tray table three inches high. He stood up to get his bag, and he was wiping his eyes. He carefully packed every single scrap of paper into his rucksack. 'Thank you,' he told the flight attendant. 'No,' she said. 'Thank you.' We all walked off that plane a little quieter, reminded that freedom is just a word until you meet the kid who is defending it.

@Matt_Fortuna @BarstoolBigCat @BoardGeniuses This is brilliant. Nay, necessary

@NClemens48 @consumerofsoda @Its_Sabotage @stoolpresidente I also remember a ghost call on the kickoff return TD just before this. Can’t leave it in the hands of the zebras amigo

@DougKezirian @TheRealDisco @BFW You claim he’s oversimplifying it but you’re overcomplicating it. They played on the field.

@BruceFeldmanCFB @bykevinclark Yes Bruce

@hardgour @billyliucci Notice how the committee sneaks exactly one 4 loss team into the rankings. Iowa. Boosting Oregon’s resume artificially. Interesting

[Brett Vinzant @Bveezy1]

@JoshPateCFB The correct take. To be honest they should BOTH be in and the problem is auto qualifiers. Plenty of years where a G5 team would be deserving of a spot they had EARNED (Boise, UCF, etc.) This is not one of those years. We saw what happened on the field when Tulane played Ole Miss
