I have never been a big birthday guy. No need for cake or candles. Give me a nice drink, good company and a quiet setting.
Still, the last two years have been the most meaningful birthdays of my life. My post-surgical diagnosis was I wouldn't see 60.
You see, when prostate cancer escapes and spreads, that "easy" cancer to beat becomes a demon. I was 54 and the demon was loose inside.
Last June 1 was my 60th birthday. Sunday was my 61st. This isn't borrowed or stolen time. This is a blessing. And here I am, beating the odds, praying more, drinking less and rarely out of the company of my two dogs and/or my grestest blessing, my wife.
Men, if you're 45 or older, please ask your doctor to score your PSA (prostate specific antigen). It's sime blood test and the best tool we have for early detection of prostate cancer. And the sooner you catch it, the better.
Please score that PSA and avoid a life of exhaustion, incontinence, erectile dysfunction or eventual death.
No, these aren't bonus birthdays. They are gifts from God, and added time to shout my message from the mountain tops. All I ask is you lend me your mountain top and spread this message. 🙏❤️🤙

4th and 12
Backup QB in
The defense hadn't allowed ASU to cross midfield in the six drives before.
Simon McClannan had already pinned them inside the 10 three times.
Put the pressure on them, not on your offense to convert and on your defense if you don't. – at Manhattan, KS

I know the national media is going to spin this as Texas Tech being a bad team. But if this were the SEC, this loss would be labeled as how deep the conference is and how much of a grind it is week in and week out. Unfortunately, the Big 12 doesn’t get that same respect.

K-State QB Jacob Knuth on Avery Johnson:
"There's not a lot of words that can describe me and Avery's relationship. I got his back no matter what, and today, him having my back meant a lot to me and the team, just the way he led, even though he wasn't on the field."

Hindsight is always 20-20, but the fact of the matter is that this game completely flipped and took an absolute 180 after the failed 4th and 12

Collin Klein says there are “more questions than answers” with Avery Johnson at the moment.
There is no current timetable for his return. The plan is for Johnson to consult with K-State’s medical team over the next few days and then go from there.

A friendly reminder to all the olds in your life… K-State didn’t lose because of purple helmets and pants today.
