In between Spurs games last week, I penned this tribute to James Blackwood, a beloved former longtime cross country and track coach at Texas and UTSA.
He died Jan. 22 at 84. His runners loved his sense of humor and the unwavering support he gave them.

Prop A and Prop B Numbers:
👉🏽 There will be NO increase to property or sales taxes. The arena will be funded by visitor taxes.
👉🏽 No money is being taken from city or county budgets. General funds stay intact for housing, flooding and other needs.
👉🏽 State law limits these new revenue sources to promoting tourism only.
👉🏽 The San Antonio Spurs and their partners are investing $2.1 billion in San Antonio. $500 million toward arena construction,
$1.5 billion in job-creating development projects, and
$75 million in community benefit initiatives.
👉🏽 The Spurs – not taxpayers – will pay every extra dollar if there are cost overruns.
VOTE YES.
