Dad always said to “smell the flowers” because you never know when you’ll be able to again. Today, I will. Broadcasting 100 games across 9 sports on 5 outlets in the last year, has been so special. Thank you to those who continue to support. Much love❤️ My last 3 offices:

Gorgeous night in the River City. All Southland Conference eyes will be on @UIWWomensSoccer 4-5-3, (2-2-2) as they host @LionUpSoccer 3-6-4, (2-2-2). Two squads battling to stay in the postseason picture. Something’s got to give. Join at 7 PM CT on @ESPNPlus

https://t.co/2QgMUiZjhq @EJSanchez22 filling in very capably for me tonight. I'll be doing PA for my sons' game at Lake high. EJ is the best in the business, so you are in great hands, Tigers and Trojans.

After notching career kill #700, @finleye22 then propels the Cards to a 5 set THRILLER to continue the best start in program history. The senior finished with 24 kills to lead the way. Privilege to be on the call. #TheWord

Very niche group of people are going to notice. Adam Amin is playing a virtuoso on this broadcast call. Just masterful. #ALDS

#ICYMI @gustavoopez07 is an absolute weapon. Go read Alex’s piece while you’re at it. ⬇️

Last year, I had a conversation with another ATX media member, where I stated that @calebcrenshawc1 was the best pound-for-pound RB in the 512. His success is one of the great stories of the year and I can’t wait to see it myself the final week of the year.

🎙️Tonight you’ll see @LaurenShehadi on TBS as the field reporter for Dodgers vs Phillies. But her journey to the national stage started by earning only $9k a year in Minot, North Dakota 👀 She sent 100 VHS tapes & pizza to newsrooms … only one called her back after graduating

1) Texas better not be above Vanderbilt next week. 2) I know it won’t be, but the narrative of this game should be based around DJ Lagway.

With playoff positioning stake, @TheCougarWay picks up a CRUCIAL win against Hendrickson to make it two straight district wins. Sr. @RylanWalton5 with 2️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ and 3️⃣ TDs to lead the way and Keaton Johnson ran for another 2. More fun in 12-5A D1. Don’t count out the Cougs. @dctf

Filling in for both @UIWMensSoccer and @UIWWomensSoccer on ESPN+ has been an absolute BLAST. Hoping just the start of my journey in the OVC and Southland conferences. #TheWord

Whoa. Chad President’s Wildcats looks every bit the part in their 48-14 win over Austin to finish non-district, 4-0. So. @KylanBasinger with 6 TD passes. Kids going to be good. And will somebody just come get @Mauhnnn11 ? 11 TDs caught in 4 weeks. Yeesh. Highlights from @dctf

I beg your FINEST pardon? Goodness.

Guys, stop worrying about @ConsolFootball. They’re still here. They knock off #9 Weiss (2-1) thanks to 290 rushing yards and FOUR defensive turnovers. Chunky Mooring with 3 TDs. Camron Ruston with 2. The Tigers are 2-1 and more importantly 1-0 in district. @dctf Highlights:

FINAL Weiss - 40 A&M Consol - 48 Couple of wrapped up thoughts from Tigerland… *I’m not @TrevorBullard2, pls be nice*

Halftime in Tigerland. Weiss - 27 A&M Consol- 21 Simon Starks with a KR TD and Dallas Schad has caught two TD passes from his little brother, Jaxon. J. Schad 335 yds, 3 TD Chunky Mooring 10/53 TD DO NOT miss the second half: https://t.co/jmZMPITGuH on @DCTF

📍 Tigerland Stadium #9 @WeissFootball (2-0) heads to the Brazos Valley to take on @ConsolFootball in a 12-5A D1 opener. •3 point game in ‘24 •Playoff seeding implications Potential look at a district champion favorite. https://t.co/jmZMPITGuH on @DCTF at 7 CST.

People ask if broadcasting is hard, and I always tell them no. Anybody can talk into a microphone. Being GOOD at it is a whole different beast. Film, boards, player recognition and coaches calls are just pieces of hours of prep throughout the week. That’s the separator.

Shoutout to @GavinMoritz & @EJSanchez22 for the tremendous PxP work to help open the 2025 season in style on the Rising Game of the Week!
