Roy S. Johnson: Who’s stopping ‘auntie’ from taking Thanksgiving chitlins on a plane? Not TSA. After years of empty holiday memories following the death of my father, having children renewed my holiday zeal. And an auntie gave us a memory for the ages. Or the stomach.

Who wants a prison named after them?! Our governor. And it makes perfect sense, sadly. www.al.com/opinion/2024...

Goodman: An Iron Bowl connection made Miles College a champion Miles coach Sam Shade is a rising star and his diamond-studded defense is a conference champion.

Kudos to champion #MilesCollege from my @aldotcom.bsky.social colleague Joe Goodman. An homage to its Coach of the Year and the president who is quietly building a gem that may soon be in Bham. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Roy S. Johnson: I watched basketball with a Trump Republican. It’s a start. We have much in common, but the presidential election strained us. Watching a basketball game was our first step toward repair.

Hey, I'm tryin'.
