A random Thursday

But not just any Thursday for me. Today is the day I met my wife 9 years ago. I'll never forget it. If you haven't heard the story and you want to, I'll hit it at the beginning of the show today. It's an East Texas love story for the ages.

Now to the Women's game last night. They just couldn't get enough offense to help Ashley Lindsey. They had a shot at the lead early in the 2nd half, but missed a layup. There were a few chances to cut a 4 point lead, but they couldn't convert. Andrea Riley didn't have a great game overall, but finished with 20 while three of her teammates ended up in double figures. By the time Texas got in a groove and hit some shots, it was too late.

Ok now a pet peeve. I took this pic because something has always bugged me about Ok. St.'s home. They put the word "Historic" right before "Gallagher" so it reads "Welcome to Historic Gallagher-Iba Arena Dedicated 1938". If it's been there since '38 and everybody knows about it, why have the word historic on there? We know it's historic. That's like putting "The Famous Augusta National Golf Course" up in Georgia. Don't use an extra word if you don't need it. Come on, Pokes.


But one thing they do have right is the flag. I took this picture with the intent of ripping the folks in Stillwater for their flag hanging, but they are right. This is how you are supposed to hang the American flag indoors. I thought you were supposed to hang it the other way like the Oklahoma flag is done here, so I looked it up. It seems wrong to me, but the rule is to keep the blue in the upper left. Just a helpful tip. If you really want to be a flag geek, I found your page - Flag Rules
