This is where you're supposed to say 'They're coming to hear y'all...not for the food." 😁

I assume Georgetown won the coin flip? I wish they'd do away with one game series. I thought they already had. Obviously, I was wrong.

The crack spread doesn't account for all of the products a refinery produces. Basically, they're losing money on all products except gasoline & diesel.

I paid $3.39/gal at Kroger La Porte day before yesterday. Of course, I had gas points worth .30/gal. It's still $3.69 today.

Peyton Smith is starting to impress. I've heard he's been working very hard. I'd love to see him involved in the offense more. He received offers from Oklahoma State and Stanford this month to up his total offers to 15 so far, and is actually ranked ahead of Sean Simon right now at #6 overall recruit in Texas for 2028. Sean Simon is currently #8. [Hidden Content]

Makes one wonder where we’d be if we were still on the gold standard. Really interesting article for those interested in the history of our fiscal policy, and some of how we got to this point. [Hidden Content]

I won’t get into the Trump partisan issues. I’ll leave those to the two sides. But, stocks rise and fall due to many more reasons than tariffs. Insurance costs are also affected by multiple things. If you wanted to find a common denominator, the common denominator would be labor costs. That would cover all forms of insurance—medical included. Property taxes did not decrease in Texas. Voters approved a larger exemption amount for some. Big difference. If property taxes were actually decreased, people could possibly negotiate a lower rate for home/flood insurance due to a decreased value, and save more money—or, at least, minimize increases. That isn’t the case. Facts matter.

After a long rain delay in the 6th, La Porte and Sterling resumed and went extra innings. The game lasted 4.5 hours with La Porte winning 4-1 and sweeping the series to advance.

Correction. LP gets Hendrickson next. I was looking at PO chart wrong. My bad. 😬

You’re correct. I was looking at the chart wrong. LP gets Hendrickson.

La Porte takes Game 2 against Crosby 4-1, and sweeps the series. BH also swept College Station. LP vs BH is up next. Texas Coaches Poll had BH #1 in State and LP #6 last week. Last year, these two teams played one of the better series in the PO’s.
