Who am I?

I'm from Houston, a graduate of the University of Texas, a fan of the Houston Astros and Houston Texans. But this blog will be about the "greater sports", whatever that means.

Sportsman of the Week Ending 9/29/2024


One of the biggest college football games of the SEC (which means in national college football) was Alabama hosting Georgia and the action did not disappoint.  Alabama surged to a 30-7 half time lead and there were arguments the score did not even reflect the domination of the Tide.  Then Georgia, inspired by a halftime lead, scored 27 of the next 30 points to take an improbable lead.  Enter our Sportsman of the Week Jalen Milroe.  One play for 75 yards to end the scoring.  But it was his dominant effort all game, throwing 27-33 (missed six passes) for 374 yards and two TDs.  He was also the Tide's leading rusher at 16 carries for 117 yards and two TDs.  That's like near 500 yards in their biggest game of the year.  Milroe has ascended to the short conversation for Heisman Trophy and is the Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
