"However large or small our own empire, aren’t our angry outbursts and our irrational responses when things don’t fall out the way we would like signs that we know deep down that we are not in control, and that we do not like that truth?" Alistair Begg in Brave. #alistairbegg

Stat of the day: Under Nick Saban, Alabama had more players drafted in the first-round (44) than it had losses (29).

My favorite Nick Saban moment was not a win, it came in defeat. Coaches and parents make sure you affirm your children/athletes even after losses. Forever my favorite Saban moment.

From a Psychology Today article on on the 2016 book by Rivas et al., The Self Does Not Die: "In another case, this one originally recorded by Kenneth Ring and Madelaine Lawrence (1993), a patient described having an NDE in which she was pulled upward through the floors of the

On the topic of Alabama's interest in Kalen DeBoer... His career record is 104-12 and he's 12-2 all-time vs Top 25 teams. Yeah, he's never coached in the SEC but then again, neither had Nick Saban till LSU hired him: theathletic.com/5193708/2024/0… theathletic.com/5193708/2024/0…

@TheMistressB I'll be frank; Christian cinema tends to get preachy. I give "God's Not Dead" a B- for keeping it to a minimum... My ranked list: 1. "The Passion of the Christ" is good but brutal, strong acting, high production value; not for the squeamish or younger viewers. Jim Cavaziel.

“All the things I believed in for all these years. 50 years of coaching, no longer exist in college athletics.” - Nick Saban speaking at Ted Cruz's roundtable on the future of college sports today in Washington D.C.

Meteor? Ufo? I filmed this at 143am on a night walk in South Salinas. Several are reporting it across California, and many are calling it a meteor shower, which is not accurate. My best guess is burning space debris of some sort, but was fascinating to see!! Any confirmation as

A genuinely funny joke from 1844, related by Southern anti-slavery pastor J.M. Pendleton in his autobiography: There were two women on a boat, one of whom wished fresh air and the other did not. The name of the chambermaid was Tabitha. In the night the cry was heard, "Tabitha,

Interesting piece of early pandemic protest art featuring the Simpsons. Read the eyes!

Miller funeral home in Oxford, Alabama is doing a smoked meat fundraiser. Something about that seems a bit off…

I have just felt my SECOND earthquake as a Californian! I think that makes me official. 4.1 earthquake in Tres Pinos, California, somewhere around 20 miles away from Salinas as the crow flies. Interestingly, it was the FOURTH earthquake tonight in Tres Pinos over 3.0. (I get

I had hoped I would never have to post this again in my lifetime, but an event similar to the 4/27/11 super tornado outbreak is within the realm of possibilities Saturday. I beg each and every one of you, if you know someone in the threat area tomorrow, send them a message and

A high risk (level 5/5) has been defined for parts of AL and MS for “round two” tomorrow afternoon/night. A new video briefing will be up shortly.

Antifa CEO Bart Rardo Ambassador Mike Huckabee Interesting theory. We have substantial reason to believe that they were put into the tomb on Friday Night, and were missing Sunday Morning.
