You Might Have Been in Northwest Arkansas...

Last Wednesday I went to a meeting of the Marshall, Texas Ministerial Alliance. When they asked where I came from, most of them commented that they had been in my neck of the woods. Whether in Branson or in Eureka Springs they were familiar with northwest Arkansas, especially the fact that the roads are a straight as a ball of yarn.

One of them mentioned that he turned on the news hoping to hear the score of the Texas Rangers game from earlier in the evening to be struck that the only sports news in NWA was the Razorbacks. He was positively dumbfounded that a full sports report could revolve around this one topic.

I have just two comments: First-Well, yeah, welcome to northwest Arkansas. Second-If you think that's bad check out the sports report from Austin.
