There's No Way Texas Tech Can Compete With Other NIL Deals

There's No Way Texas Tech Can Compete With Other NIL Deals

Image by PublicDomainPNG.com from Pixabay/Texas Tech Athletics College football is changing and it looks like we may be left behind.I do not begrudge any student-athlete getting whatever they can, while they can. After all, they are just one injury away from never receiving anything for playing and practicing sports their entire life. This is where N.I.L. (Name, Image, Likeness) rules come into play. The athletes CAN now receive some compensation, but a limit was never instituted and as a result, some athletes are already past a million dollars a year.Texas Tech's Matador Club stepped up...

Groomed To Kill: Meet The Texas Teen Who Slayed & Tortured Boys

Groomed To Kill: Meet The Texas Teen Who Slayed & Tortured Boys

Pasadena mugshot with edit"I just blew his life away." -Elmer Wayne HenleyIf Elmer Wayne Henley had committed his crimes during this decade, the outcome of his trial may have been very different. Henley is currently serving six consecutive life sentences for the murders, mutilations, and torturous sexual assault of several victims. These crimes are sickening, but you might ask yourself, was Henley really to blame?You often hear the term "grooming" now, and whether it's frequently being used in a disingenuous way is up for debate. However, in Henley's case, it would be an honest way to...

The Average Annual Salary in This Poor Texas Town Isn't Even 5 Digits Long

The Average Annual Salary in This Poor Texas Town Isn't Even 5 Digits Long

Your very first job probably paid you more than $10,000 per year. Picture yourself, 16 years old, living off of mom and dad, blowing your measly paychecks on cigarettes and clearance t-shirts from Hollister. You were broke, but it didn't matter. Your mom was still feeding you Hamburger Helper and putting gas in your car when you inevitably spent your entire check on BS. You were just a kid, learning how to become a productive member of society. $10k a year was likely all you needed to have a little fun with your pals. Can you imagine what it would be like to raise a family with even...

Lucky 3: Texas Death Row Prisoners Granted Clemency Since 1976

Lucky 3: Texas Death Row Prisoners Granted Clemency Since 1976

Texas Department of Corrections mugshots Since the death penalty was reinstated in 1976, 313 men and women on death row have been granted reprieve. This does not mean they are not paying for their crimes- most sentences were commuted to life without parole. Of everyone spared the death penalty, less than 1% are Texas death row inmates.* Not only is Texas the least forgiving of those on death row, but we have led the nation in executions since 1976 by a comfortable margin.In fact, only three men have been granted clemency in Texas. We will examine their lives, crimes, and why they...

[WATCH] Texas Cop Saves Choking Woman on Highway

[WATCH] Texas Cop Saves Choking Woman on Highway

A police officer on the highway in Mansfield, Texas was in the right place at the right time to save a choking woman's life with the Heimlich maneuver. Had it not been for him, she may not have made it. She was heading down the highway, chewing a piece of gum, when a passing motorist scared her, causing her to inhale her gum accidentally. She continued to drive and tried her best to breathe with it stuck in her throat, but she couldn't get it out. She turned on her 4-way flashers, which alerted the police officer in traffic next to her. He threw his lights on behind her and they both pulled...

Delta 8 And Delta 9 Hemp Products Could Soon Be Illegal In Texas

Delta 8 And Delta 9 Hemp Products Could Soon Be Illegal In Texas

In 2018, the federal Farm Bill made the production of hemp products legal by removing them from the Controlled Substances Act. And with that came products like Delta-8 and Delta-9. Unlike hemp-derived CBD, which has been touted for its health benefits like controlling anxiety and helping alleviate chronic pain and insomnia, Delta-8/9 does get the user high. Sometimes extremely high, if the user ingests more than they should. There have been incidents of people seeking medical intervention because they got dizzy, began to hallucinate, etc. Now, Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick is making it a...

Texas Solar Outpaces Coal Energy Production

Texas Solar Outpaces Coal Energy Production

Texans have a field day trashing renewable energy, but the have no problem using it. IFL Science reports that Texas Solar Power contributed 10% to the ERCOT grid, while coal went below 10% for a whole month for the first time. This is absolutely shocking to a state that loves the oil and gas industries. Yes, coal is not oil and gas, but just allowing a renewable energy source to start picking up steam seems outright rebellious in the Lone Star State. There's always going to be a place for oil and gas and we don't have to choose. The fact is that the consumer benefits when there is...

Caution Texas! Common Squirrels Can Kill Your Pets, Here's How

Caution Texas! Common Squirrels Can Kill Your Pets, Here's How

Nothing sets my dog off quite like seeing a squirrel. Honestly, it's cute to see her ears perk up and her pupils dilate as she rears up on her back legs. I always have her on a leash when we walk outside, so I'm not sure if she would "play" with a squirrel or actually, shall we say, hunt it down. Either way, it's not a good idea to let your dogs or cats come into contact with a squirrel if you can avoid it, because a squirrel can hurt or even kill your beloved pet. If you're thinking rabies, you can set that worry mostly aside, especially if your animal is vaccinated against it. If you are...
