The SEC Women’s Basketball Tournament in Greenville, South Carolina, this week will be an opportunity to pad win totals for some and serve as a lifeline for others. Teams like Mississippi State, South Carolina, Texas A&M and Kentucky are near locks for the upcoming NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament. They may not have much to play […]
First, my wife and I have opposite opinions on the statue debate, but we discuss and respect each other’s opinions. My great-great-great grandfather fought for the South but did not own slaves.
