Happy Tuesday! Our hearts go out to the C-SPAN caller who used his airtime during the inauguration coverage to voice his disappointment with Alabama’s absence from the College Football Playoff. He’s not alone in perhaps being preoccupied with it yesterday.
And on that note, congratulations to the Ohio State Buckeyes (and our colleague Rachael Larimore) on their national championship last night over Notre Dame!
