Is it finally over?

The 2005 hurricane season has officially come to a close for the Central Time zone. But is it really over? And what does the future hold?

More from the Greek Alphabet

Tropical Storm Epsilon has formed in the Atlantic. It is the twenty-sixth named storm of the year meaning that if the NOAA didn't exclude some letters of our alphabet from hurricane names, we'd be on Z right now. But since several uncommon letters are thrown out, we are on the fifth letter of the Greek alphabet. The hurricane season is set to end tomorrow night but like I said recently, I wouldn't be surprised if we see another hurricane start up sometime in early December.

Shakeup in A&M Coaching Staff

Texas A&M Head Coach Dennis Franchione has released Defensive Coordinator Carl Torbush of his coaching duties.

It has been a rough couple of years for A&M football most notably on the defensive side of the ball. The once vaunted and top-rated Wrecking Crew defense has declined to epic lows in the past three years.

I've been hoping that some changes would be made for several weeks, but now that it has happened, I only hope that a suitable replacement can be found quickly and that he will be able to step in and affect change relatively quickly with little additional growing pains.

The search is on!

The Bad Part of a Rivalry

I hate it when news like this comes out. Rivalry brings this kind of behavior out in some people and unfortunately that reflects poorly on any group as a whole. A member of the Texas A&M's Parsons Mounted Cavalry has been charged with throwing horse manure on members of the University of Texas band during the march in prior to the game on Friday.

The game ended up being great -- one of the best in years -- but this kind of behavior tarnishes the play on the field. Aggies should never forget that this is just a game.

Godspeed Mr. Miyagi

Pat Morita has left this mortal coil. I will never forget how much I loved Karate Kid in my youth. Looking back on it now, it was a typical '80s kid movie, I still think that Mr. Miyagi was a great teacher and role model for everyone. We'll miss you Pat.
