@artstricklin I was anchoring that Sunday. I picked out a sound bite where he talked about how special it was to win on the day Jesus rose from the grave. I'll never forget it.

WOW! A drone show put on by a church in Manvel, Texas depicts our Savior Jesus on the cross. One of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. Tomorrow, HE IS RISEN.

Kim Mulkey on a social media rumor that said she’s retiring: “I’m going to be in this game unless LSU fires me, until I can’t put a product on the floor that’s competitive or if my health fails me.”

Terrific read. Especially for those of us who have seen every episode of MASH multiple times.

“Margaret Houlihan Never Really Left.” — What Alan Alda Found Under Loretta Swit’s Bed February 2026. A few months after Loretta Swit passed away, Alan Alda and Mike Farrell quietly drove to her home to help her family sort through the last of her belongings. No press. No cameras. Just two old friends walking into a sunlit bedroom that still felt like her. The curtains were half-drawn. Dust floated in the afternoon light. Her script notes were still stacked neatly on a table. Alan stood in the doorway for a long moment. “Feels like she’s about to walk in and tell us we’re late for rehearsal,” he murmured. Mike gave a soft smile. “And yell at us for tracking dirt across the floor.” They both laughed. Then they found it. Under the bed. A small, battered tin box. The paint chipped. The lid dented. Across the top, secured with old yellowed medical tape, were four words written in Loretta’s unmistakably bold handwriting: “Property of 4077th — Keep Safe.” Alan knelt. His hands trembled—not just from Parkinson’s. He lifted the lid. Inside were no awards. No jewelry. No Hollywood memorabilia. Just… buttons. Hundreds of military buttons. Mike picked one up and held it to the light. “Alan,” he whispered. “This one’s from Harry’s jacket.” Another. “This one’s from Jamie’s dress uniform.” Another. “Larry’s.” Another. “David’s.” They looked at each other. And slowly, they understood. For eleven seasons—and for decades after—Loretta had quietly saved a button from each cast member’s costume. Sometimes she’d ask wardrobe. Sometimes she’d retrieve them after filming. Sometimes, when someone passed away, she would gently request one from storage. When asked once why she kept them, she had laughed and said: “Margaret Houlihan is the head nurse. And head nurses sew families back together.” She wasn’t joking. She had been stitching them together all along. At the very bottom of the tin box was a folded letter. Dated 2024. Alan unfolded it carefully. “Dear my two boys,” it began. “Margaret may have been rigid. But Loretta was always afraid of goodbye. I kept these buttons because as long as we hold a small piece of each other’s uniform, we will never lose our way in the dark. When I go, don’t cry for me. Take them back to Malibu. Let them rest in the soil where we laughed, cried, and became something real.” Alan stopped reading. His voice broke. Mike quietly finished the last line: “We were never just actors. We were family.” On February 28, 2026—forty-three years after Goodbye, Farewell and Amen—Alan and Mike drove to Malibu Creek State Park. No monument. No speeches. No photographers. Just wind moving through the canyon. They dug a small hole in the same dirt where the 4077th once stood. One by one, they let the buttons fall into the earth. Tiny pieces of uniforms. Tiny pieces of memory. Tiny pieces of love. Alan wiped his eyes. Then he stood as straight as he could. “Reporting in, Major Houlihan,” he whispered. “All personnel accounted for.” The wind moved through the canyon like distant helicopter blades. And for a moment… It felt like Margaret was still there. Because she never really left. She just made sure none of them ever would Loretta Swit’s legacy lives on in the hearts of her MASH* family.

@BaylorMBB watching from South Carolina, the first thing that hit me was how great the crowd was and how supportive. Record aside, this team is worth supporting and how great it was to see them enjoy a win!

@SarahRogersBU @BaylorMBB I could not have said it any better. I just loved seeing them have the joy of the win and love watching them play as hard and frustrating as it is sometimes. They are great young men and forever a part of the family.

Admire @BaylorMBB in their effort to stay unified & supportive in the midst of adversity/injuries. They could easily turn against each other in their frustration but have grown together & individually. They also continue to show love & respect to our school Thank you Bears #SicEm

Optimistic Baylor take: DeBraun Hampton signs, 5-10, 187 slot threat from Florida, three years left, bonded with Lagway; Spavital’s playbook gains a security blanket I pretend. 🏈 #SicEm

@DavidSmoak I watched the video he posted of his recruiting visit to Baylor when he was at Willis. You could see that it was a very familiar home. I said at that time, "I think he'll be back." Napier's tenure was tenuous. Now he gets to do what he should have...richer and more experienced.

Now that DJ Lagway has signed, maybe everyone will look at positives of this opportunity for DJ, Baylor, OC Jake Spavital who has a new weapon to turn into something special. So many kept waiting for a meteor to fall, but this has been locked-in regardless. #Relax @BUFootball

@SarahRogersBU It was shameful the way the TCU fans booed him without knowing his story. It's the world we live in though.
