I love college football! Yesterday, my family and I drove to Fayetteville, Arkansas to watch The University of Alabama Crimson Tide have a little BBQ, defeating the Hogs of Arkansas 49 – 14. It was some very sweet BBQ indeed! Today, I’m very hoarse, and a just a little sunburned (it could’ve been worse without that SPF 50). All in all, it was a fun weekend with my wife and kids since we adore our Crimson Tide!

Here are some great links for your weekend reads:
