Random Monday Morning Thoughts






  • In Tarrant County, there was a sentence in a case involving Munchausen syndrome by proxy (but for some reason the Fox 4 story never calls it that.)


    • Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office Det. Michael Weber sure had some hot opinions about the Tarrant County DA's office.


  • This happened on Saturday, and I don't think any local newscast had the story until last night.




  • We've got yet another "standoff" after a police chase this morning. There's an epidemic of that happening within the last week. 

  • Hamas hit an Israeli soccer field in July and everyone lost their minds.  But Israel kills 100 in a school and it's barely a blurb on the news. 



  • Trump, upset by Kamala's crowd size, went to Truth Social to falsely claim the pictures of one crowd was by A.I.  If your elderly parent wrote something like this, you would call an emergency family meeting. 


  • Eagle Mountain High School off of Bonds Ranch Road has its $270 million grand opening and it looks like a small college. The classrooms have a very lecture hall feel to them. And they got their own football stadium (not sharing) and indoor practice facility. In its inaugural season, football will open with Jacksboro (8/30) and later play other home games against Paradise (9/13) and Bridgeport (10/25).


    The weight room is impressive.

  • I think I said this four years ago, too: How come we don't have a scoring system for the overall standings where you get three points for gold, two for silver, and one for bronze? The U.S. comes out on top either way, but still. 

  • Cancer doesn't discriminate.

  • Matt Kuchar was the only player in this weekend's PGA event to come back this morning and complete his round after the  tournament was called for darkness yesterday. He's now done. It took him six minutes. He made par. Here's why he tried:
    Yesterday evening
    This morning


  • Why would you have Trey Lance over Cooper Rush as your backup?
