Little delayed on sharing these, but I now have two @annarbornews columns! I now pen the "Hello, Ann Arbor" newsletter. I spoke about my upbringing in Ann Arbor, my family and why last week's Minneapolis shooting hit me so hard.

This week's news around Ann Arbor focused on children, from those returning to school to federal pressure against gender-affirming care to Catholics reacting to the Minneapolis shooting.

La Serre, which sits inside the new Vanguard Hotel, is a special place for a date night with your favorite person.

Nailed this so far!.
Navy will be in that No. 12 spot. They will be 8-0 heading into Notre Dame, and the objective is to keep it close enough to be the top G5 team. I have a really hard time with Boise without Jeanty, plus the Mountain West has too many decent teams to avoid at least one upset.

College football is back, baby.

I listen to Keith Jackson every start of a college football season. Him talking about the Rose Bowl stirs my soul. Happy start of the season, y’all.

Nebraska winning this sort of game is improvement. But Cincy might be terrible, so may only be marginal improvement.
Nebraska never used to win this kind of game ….
