Wildfires Cause a Possible Move for Texans

Due to the recent outbreak of wildfires that is sweeping through California, the San Diego Chargers might be faced with the possibility of moving their game to Texas. Potential stadiums that the NFL is looking into are Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas Stadium in Dallas, or possibly holding out to Monday and have the game in San Diego depending on the conditions.

Personally, I would like to see the game be moved to Reliant to get that home team advantage, but I'm biased. I would like to see the Texans get a win, since lately, they've been going a little downhill - some close calls - but still downhill.

A Change in Direction

After some careful consideration, and lack of blogs on my previous topic, I have decided to switch my blogging topic to the Houston Texans. I feel strongly for the Houston Texans, since they are the team of my hometown. Therefore, once I receive information for blogging purposes I will make a new post on my new topic. Until then, feel free to browse other Houston Texans blogs that I have posted to the right of the screen.

Bob Dole To Become the 12th Speaker in President's Series

I recently read an article (if I can even call it that) published online at Today @ Sam, a student newspaper published at Sam Houston State University, about how Bob Dole will become the 12th speaker in the SHSU President's Series. The article is a timeline or resume of sorts for Bob Dole. The "article" speaks nothing of previous speakers or even what the series entails. Why is he speaking and to whom is he speaking? I'm not quite sure, BUT I do know that Bob Dole grew up during the Great Depression. I also learned, thanks to a type-o, that Bob Dole's first job was as a "soda jerk." I truly am surprised that I made it past the title, let alone the first couple of sentences.

I think that a speaker of this magnitude is entitled to a bit of press and a little hype because after reading his resume - oops! I meant this "article" - the man deserves a little respect. Most can only dream of half the career this man has had, yet he has very distinguished military AND political careers, and frankly, Sam Houston State University is lucky to have him. I mean this man is retired. He could be on a beach somewhere sipping on a coconut with an umbrella, but No! He is speaking to a group of 20-somethings who are probaly skipping class to see him, trying to make the world a better place for those who play hookie.
