Re: the Butler thing…. It of course looks fishy as shit, but I have yet to hear even a plausible theory on how that could have been staged. What with the dead bodies and all. Maybe that one dude directing traffic just has amazing political instincts and wanted it captured like that. Dunno.
Who could have foreseen that electing the guy who previously tried to end democracy, the convicted felon and child rapist, would turn out badly. Like, emptying the treasury into his bank accounts and threatening NATO countries with invasion badly.
Burton: Update on OL Laurence Seymore, the most recent commitment to Texas: Spoke to someone close to the situation. Seymore is not expected to join Texas until summertime. He is finishing his undergrad degree this semester at Western Kentucky. Texas has a lot of confidence that he will be granted his waiver. However, the only timetable currently for that is “sometime this spring”. He is expected to visit Texas for the first time at some point in the next couple of weeks.
