Orrick, MO

Orrick took care of business in their home opener on Friday (and then some). They simply couldn't be stopped as they easily beat the Southwest Wildcats 56-0 at home.

Jose and Aurora Rodriguez founded La Serenata in 1985 in Boyle Heights. That was a pivotal era in L.A.’s Mexican food community, and Jose Rodriguez's culinary pursuits led him to become a pioneer in rejecting the “combination plate” standard laden with soggy tacos and burritos.

Louisiana State

The Lens

During my childhood, when my family visited relatives “across the river,” in Bayou Plaquemine, Bayou Goula, Caddo, the Pointe, and White Castle, my siblings and I would sometimes race up and down the levees, some distance away from the cows grazing there. At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.

The Venezuelans living in Aurora apartment buildings facing condemnation were not put there by the city of Denver. Denver city spokesman Jon Ewing said none of the residents are part of the Denver Asylum Seekers Program, or DASP. Amidst a flurry of media reports, some not substantiated, some have claimed the City and County of Denver placed the migrants in the Aurora buildings.

Burnet, TX

Lago Vista, TX

Burnet couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They fell just short of the Lago Vista Vikings by a score of 23-20 on Thursday.

The team also got some help courtesy of Brock Morton, who picked up 127 receiving yards and a touchdown.

Aurora, Colo. -- Angry Aurorans on social media poked fun at the local news media Friday as more information came out about Venezuelan gangs on the Front Range. Mike Coffman, Aurora mayor, posted on Facebook that the city will use court orders to shut down additional apartment complexes that have been infiltrated by the gangs. It contradicted comments made by Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, who told the New York Post the gang problem was a figment of Aurora council member Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.

Colorado State

Despite what proponents of a ballot measure to stop the hunting of bobcats and mountain lions in Colorado claim, hunters say science is on their side. Several hunters reached out to this reporter after he authored an article last week about the so-called “trophy hunting” of bobcats and mountain lions. Initiative 91, on the Colorado ballot this November, would put an end to the practice. An organization supporting hunters, Coloradans for Responsible Wildlife Management, said that the “trophy hunting” language is misleading, and in fact hunters play an important role in ecology.

Carbondale, IL

Murphysboro had to hit the road for their first game and it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They fell just short of the Carbondale Terriers by a score of 36-33 on Friday. The Red Devils were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Terriers apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in August of 2023.
