Talked to @sponglr about one of our favorite topics: Willie Nelson, who has yet another new album out tomorrow. (It’s good!) But also his essential @TexasMonthly list of Willie Nelson albums (now up to 153) and John’s excellent podcast, “One By Willie.” washingtonpost.com/entertain…
Every Willie Nelson album has a story. This man helps tell them.

So in theory, annually now at an offseason Fox Sports NFL planning meeting, there is someone raising their hand and saying something to the effect of “How can we do the highlights without Terry?”

ESPN had Ted Cruz on 'College GameDay' in a conversation with Rece Davis for nearly 10 minutes. Cruz was heavily booed by the crowd -- and heard "Ted, you suck!" chants -- in Austin.
