    Is the Clinton library worth seeing in Little Rock? I have never been to Memphis and do want to see that and Nashville (only been to the Smokies in Tennessee).

    Both Memphis and Nashville are great! My only trip to Arkansas was long before Clinton became President. Before Carter did, actually.

    Yes. Little Rock is worth seeing. There's a little museum across from Central High School, and the downtown area is small, but there aresare actually decent restaurants. Arkansas, in the fall especially, is beautiful. The cotton is in the field and the rice paddies are ripe. That's on the east side, the delta area where they have the water to grow rice

    It isn’t bad. They’ve done a really good job of booking some top flight speakers and the whole presidential library experience is something.

    as a place to visit, Little Rock isn’t a bad time. Or at least it was before the covid hit. Besides the library, Central High is a sight to see. Also some good places to eat and drink.

    Good golf as well, if that’s your thing.

    Did some digging into the Morning Consult poll.
    Fans of every single Power 5 conference support the Pac 12 and Big Ten's move. And overwhelmingly so. Somebody tell the Big Ten Parents Council that they look like bigger idiots every passing day.

    The Razorbacks could go 0-120 over a decade and they'll still be the big banana in the state. Second banana would be a horse win the Arkansas Derby and the Triple Crown.

    Just realized today that under normal circumstances, we would be watching college football this weekend.

    There are reports out that the Big Ten is talking about playing an eight game season, starting Thanksgiving weekend. I assume that will be a conference only schedule. Starting that late would mean that they'd start playing after the Bowl Championship season is over. I don't think there's a chance in hell that they hold off on the championship game to wait on them.

    Where the hell did they do that polling of SEC and ACC fans? There's no way two-thirds of the people in those conferences' member states are saying canceling the college football season is a good idea or something they support.

    It struck me as odd as well.
    Here's the link.
    I'll tell you right now that it's hard to figure out. Go to page 55. I combined strong support and somewhat support into a general support category. Same for opposition.

    I think these reports being generated by Big 10 deniers who can not accept the reality of the conference postponing the season.
