Welcome to the Midwest edition of Deep South Smack Talk. The Dawgs are, thankfully, off this week. But looking westward to my graduate alma mater, there’s a big game brewing in Lincoln. Undefeated and fourth ranked Missouri is headed into a tricky match up with the 3-1 Nebraska Cornholers. Cornhuskers, sorry, I always get that [...]

Sunday
Makings of a good Sunday:
Georgia 27, Arizona State 10 (11 straight for the Dawgs)

A much deserved Monday and Tuesday off.

Father’s day at long last and equal time for nourishing mothers
Regular readers of A Free Man may know that one of my life long quests, much like Superman, is fighting for justice and pointing out inequity when it crosses my path. For example, the fact that Dr. O’C has celebrated two Mother’s Days in her first year as a Mother and I have had no [...]

In the county jail
I was smoking with the boys upstairs
When I heard about the whole affair
I said oh no
William and Mary wont do…”
What a year in college football! Both of my alma maters (or is it almas mater) are in the [...]
