Happy New Year everyone!  It's hard to believe 2007 has come and gone. but 2008 is here and so are a couple of big stories already. First, congratulations to the Missouri Tigers on a big win in the Cotton Bowl. Their victory was another argument against the BCS system. The Tigers beat Arkansas who beat LSU who is playing for the national championship. Yet Mizzou and it's 11-2 (now 12-2) record was not good enough for a BCS bowl game. But enough already with the whining about that. The Tigers won a big bowl game and hold a lot of promise for 2008.

Second big story on the second day of the new year... The countdown is over.. HIGHWAY 40 IS SHUTTING DOWN!!  The very idea still sounds crazy doesn't it? Where else in the country have they done something like this? Whatever.. we have to deal with it. We at Fox 2 will do the best we can to help you navigate the resulting maze.. and we are counting on you to help us as well.l. We will get through this together. 2008  should be an interesting ride.. HANG ON!!

Happy New year Tom......

Hwy 40 is not a concern for me except the road rage we will be seeing by the frustrated drivers over the next few weeks.... I do have the luxury of not going there for a while....

Go Mizzou

I feel sorry for you at Fox2. Maybe you should hitch a ride with John Brubaker.

Happy New Year....

My ALT. route has already been in place for awhile...whenever they closed the Bellvue exit to my hospital. So I have already been traveling the back roads and it has not been bad....

BUT....now that others are going to be traveling it with me....we will see wont we?

Happy New Year Tom! I don't get near an interstate to get to and from work unless it is late evening, so I'm not too concerned about the 40 closing. I actually try to stay away from 40, that road scares the dickens out of me.

Was happy to hear that MIZZOU won, good job!

Now, can we keep the chaos down a bit this year? (HOPE HOPE HOPE)

I anchor the 5pm and 9pm news at Fox 2. This is the career I chose when my dreams of playing professional baseball faded into reality. Should I coach or go into the news business? I made the right choice. But I have played sports all my life and remain an avid sports fan. When I'm not working, I enjoy working out, riding my motorcycle, playing golf and doing a little fishing.
