Sunday Sundown Rundown - 2/9/25

3 Up

1. Eagles Defensive Live - I'm no football aficionado or even a huge fan - but what the Eagles front four on defense did was dominating. 

1a. Philadelphia Eagles - Congratulations to Eagles fans and the city of Philadelphia on the Super Bowl win. 

2. Kendrick Lamar - I'm sure it'll be controversial - we all knew it would be going in. Throwing my two cents into the arena of public opinion, I thoroughly enjoyed Kendrick's performance. I'm a fan, so that's easy. Tough night to be Drake though. Yikes! 

3. Human-Like Teeth in Pigs - Science can be cool. But stories like this are absolutely amazing. 

3 Down

1. Plan for Education? - Look, I'm all for cutting wasteful spending from the government. However, I also want to know the plan to replace or support the areas that are being cut. Eliminating the Department of Education? Ok, cool. What's the plan after that?

2. USAID - We live in a VERY blessed country. My heart is with the countries and people who rely on those USAID efforts. I can't get my mind beyond that when tackling this topic. 

3. DEI - I called it a buzzword several weeks ago. But seriously, we're a country divesting from wanting representation. Weird times...
