There's very little news out there and I woke up 30 minutes late so I'm running a little behind.

As far as my July 4th festivities are concerned I only have one thing to report. It could be disputed that I am the 2nd or 3rd best washer player in Kaufman County, and I lost twice last night, it wasn't pretty. Need to work on my summer form. I realize that it's awfully boastful to say that I'm such a good washer player, but when I was born, the good, clean Lord gave me two talents: the ability to type very fast (in junior high 112 words per minute which allowed me to skip typing in high school) and the ability to put a washer in a hole. I don't know if that makes me a sad individual, but that's what I got.

DMN's Ross Taylor (he might be the new Texas Tech beat writer) has an article on the three incoming freshman playing in the Global Games. I really like this quote from John Roberson:

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Johnn Roberson is going to be a star, not because of that quote, but because he's going to be a helluva basketball player. I detailed some of the information you might need about the Global Games earlier this week. I still plan on being there on Friday night.
