Seriously, how can you not love Texas Tech coach Mike Leach?
His favorite weather: “When it rains mud.” His half-ass name for the live radar: “The beam.” His favorite creed: “You’re going to be dead in 100 years anyway. Live dangerously.”
Still hope he somehow winds up in Dallas. Not to replace Pete Delkus, but Wade Phillips.

A Friend of Unfair Park directs our attention to Uncle Barky's nice YouTube discovery: WFAA-Channel 8's analog adios on Friday, a brief retrospective of the ABC affiliate that offers a far fancier farewell than KXAS-Channel 5's anti-climactic fade-to-static.
