I thought this was interesting at the U.S. Senior Open.
Notah Begay changed his mind at the last moment on what club to hit (initially wood, then driver) on his first hole of the day, No. 10 at Scioto CC.
No. 10 is one of the best par-4s on Scioto. Shorter drives leave a blind tee shot. Longer drives can roll downhill into the rough or creek.
Players develop a strategy and generally know the day before what club they’ll use off the tee here.
He took a bogey to start the day.
Mississippi State leadership has made a conscious decision to not be players in the college football climate of today. Treading water at .500 is where they choose to be.
As everyone is traveling on their summer trips, it’s important to remember that Mississippi taxpayers are footing a bigger bill than ever for government travel, vehicles, and fuel.
State spending in these categories has climbed to roughly $25 million annually—outpacing similar-sized states like Louisiana, Arkansas, and Iowa by millions of dollars. Since 2015, spending has grown well beyond inflation, and new vehicle purchases have exploded sevenfold.
As families tighten their budgets, state government should be doing the same. Mississippi taxpayers deserve transparency, accountability, and responsible stewardship of every tax dollar.
Arkansas baseball has the best facilities, the best ball park, best fans, and attracts the best talent. There is no reason we should have to sit around while every other SEC school wins a baseball national championship.
Lara Logan just broke down a pattern that hits different once you see it.
They keep creating problems that can never actually be solved: racism that’s “unconscious,” masculinity as inherently toxic, CO2 as the enemy even though we breathe it out, and differences turned into permanent grievances.
The goal? Issues without end. Skin color can’t change. Breathing can’t stop. Masculine instinct doesn’t vanish. So the problems stay… and so does the control.
It’s not about fixing anything. It’s about keeping the fight alive so we stay divided and easier to manage.
Once you spot the tactic, everything gets clearer.
What “unsolvable problem” have you noticed getting pushed the hardest lately?
