Good morning! It’s June 1, so we’re officially in the month in which Baby Tex is supposed to grace us with his presence (and perhaps change things here at Her Loyal Sons). Our thoughts and prayers are with Mrs. Tex because – let’s face it – she’s doing all the hard work. We’re also less than 100 days away from kicking off the 2015 season and I personally cannot wait to see how Malik Zaire does as leader of the offense.
Here are your headlines:
