I'm back in the rolling hills of Northwest Arkansas and writing as a correspondent for the McDonald County (Mo.) Press.

At newspapers, you get paid in friendships and laughter.
The Tigers need to be disbanded after losing to the Marlins.
Salute, @AaronRodgers12. So much respect for your commitment on and off the field... #Retweet4Good
I'm no fan of either team. Packers-Niners had drama, a comeback and redemption for a kicker. It's like going to the movies, but it's real. NFL is king.
Blast from the past.
Keep an eye on the kid who brings this lunch box to school. He's either bound for greatness or going to get someone killed. Maybe both.
I remember drawing helmets during class back in the day.
The Rembrandt of all bored kids who ever zoned out in class, ignored the crap their teacher was talking about and did more important things.
Two legends.
The party hasn’t really started until Willie Nelson and Earl Campbell are singing a duet ...
If I had a dollar for every laugh I've had in a newsroom, I'd be a millionaire. In journalism, you're paid in laughter and friendships.
Sweep the leg.
NFL schedules are out. I always make snap predictions about my DC team. at Cards: W; Colts, W; Packers, W; at Saints, L; Panthers, W; Cowboys, W; at Giants, L; Falcons, W; at Bucs, L; Texans, W; at Cowboys, W; at Eagles, L; Giants, W; at Jags, W; at Titans, W, Eagles, W. 12-4.
The best Phoenix Suns logo. Accept no substitutes.
Arkansas should cancel the rest of the season. You must win certain games. Instead, you get your clock cleaned -- at home -- by a beatable Kentucky team. You lose to that weasel, Calipari. If Nolan was the coach, the Razorbacks would have won. But not everybody is Nolan.

Elvin Hayes reminds Tiny Archibald not to bring Kool-Aid to a grown man's party. This rated as his second most badass moment of the night after earlier telling the Bullets' equipment manager "Just put 'Elvin' on my jersey." bit.ly/2y2oml1
Alex Smith to DC? He's even worse than Cousins. Smith is an older version of that clown. And Smith couldn't lead peanut butter to jelly. Lord have mercy. Let's go 0-16 in 2018 and draft a real QB -- or disband the franchise.
I saw The Post, a great movie. Being a hard-bitten newspaper man. I've been taught three keys to journalism, no matter the platform. 1. Tell the truth. 2. Be fair. 3. Remember that it's not about you -- unless you're writing an opinion piece. It's about the story and the people
