Notre Dame football gets underway in 2024 with a showdown in the opener at Texas A&M. Should Notre Dame open the season with a big-time game or should they have a warmup or two?

Before his commitment announcement on August 17, five-star offensive tackle David Sanders is making a return visit to Nebraska. Wide receivers Isaiah Mozee and Michael Terry are in town as well. However, the most important priority for the program seems to be Sanders. According to On3 recruiting analyst Steve Wiltfong, the Big Red has become a “real contender” for his services. But can the program hope to compete against Tennessee and Ohio State? The program has a legitimate shot, but the program has to use these people to land him.

If college football training camps are opening this week, then that also signals the start of the college football “watch lists.” Between July 29th and August 13th pre-season lists of players to keep an eye on this season will be published for 16 different post-season awards. The watch lists are often long as the committees try to be as all-inclusive as they can of players who could potentially win their award in December.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

It shouldn’t be surprising that the emergence of a young third baseman has helped the New York Mets catapult into a playoff spot. However, not many would have expected Mark Vientos to be that youngster. With the slugger establishing himself in the majors, the Mets could be enticed to trade Brett Baty in a potentially impactful deal.

“[I]nvoking the favor and guidance of Almighty God,” the Constitution of the Confederate States of America composed by southern slaveholders in 1861 sought to “establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity.” The authors of Project 2025, the latest playbook for restructuring the federal government in order to accomplish the policy goals of Christian Nationalists, similarly declare their manifesto will “decide America’s future” by securing their “God-given individual rights to live freely” and exercise dominion over others.

I recently had a reader leave a comment on one of my articles about his own experience with homelessness. Here is what he had to say:. “I am homeless. Here's (a) CliffsNotes version. I was an ASE-certified master automotive technician with three advanced level certifications. I did it for 37 years and was one of the top diagnosticians in the city, if not country. Due to some health issues I had to leave that industry and now work as a building maintenance tech at a high-end Denver hotel. My former roommate passed away and the … landlord basically kicked me out. In the interim … I have had two cars stolen in two years. So, I am now homeless, with no car…. I am a highly skilled and extremely intelligent individual who makes a whopping $21 an hour. I walk and ride the bus all over. I see more and more regular people, with pets, kids, and everything they own living in cars. These are not drug addicts or people with mental health issues.”
