Steve and DC

Athletes. Musicians. TikTok Influencers. Those are NOT heroes. Talented individuals absolutely. A hero is someone that has sacrificed so much, and sometimes their life, to serve our country. A few weeks ago, on Veterans Day, a Tuscaloosa family heard about a local restaurant honoring veterans.

A bizarre message from the Blount County Sheriff's office has gotten lots of attention on Thanksgiving Eve. The message, HERE, alerts folks with missing packages from Fed Ex to remain patient and calm. They currently have deputies en route to find out why hundreds (some estimates say 300-400) of packages have been thrown off a ravine.

Why Alabama? Tuscaloosa? Northport? Birmingham? More on that later. Yes, a famous killer of two children, Paula Sims, is on her way to Alabama.

Donald Trump, Herschel Walker, Steve Young, Doug Flutie and Reggie White. What do they have in common? Not much, you might say. True. However, in 1983-1985 they were personalities involved in the U.S.F.L. The United States Football League. Once, a big part of the football history of Birmingham, Alabama.

Well, it came. The verdict heard around the world. I watched from a busy shopping center in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. I want to know how Tuscaloosa and West Alabama folks feel about the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict. Tap the app below and let me know. Lots of inflamed passionate opinions are flowing here.

Nick Saban changed how I, as a diehard Alabama fan, look at college recruiting. Yeah, I don't really worry about it anymore. This goes back to the year that Saban swore he wasn't gonna leave the Miami Dolphins. Too bad so sad for them. I just have plenty of faith that we are gonna see plenty of the TOP recruits in Tuscaloosa each year.

I do not have the words to write. This is hard to watch. It needs to be watched. The young lady, Kristin Evans, is asking for help to catch her abuser. His name is Zac Stacy. He is unfortunately from Centreville, Alabama. Bibb County of course.

This story really hit me hard. These things keep happening in Alabama. This story is bizarre. It sounds like a movie script but unfortunately it is absolutely real. Her name is Megan Green and she is a mother of three. She's been missing since Saturday. Much like the Garrett Walker story, in my opinion, this has so many strange and unanswered questions.

Here's the latest attempt from former Alabama and NFL superstar Henry Ruggs III and his attorneys to keep him out of jail. You get what you pay for, as they say. Clearly, Henry Ruggs, who spent a few years living here in Tuscaloosa, is paying them plenty of money. Ruggs lawyers are arguing that turning over medical records are a violation of "doctor-patient privilege".

Hollywood likes to make fun of Alabama. They have for decades. However, in recent years they can't get enough of filming in cities like Tuscaloosa, Birmingham and Mobile. Bruce Willis has been in Tuscaloosa as well as Birmingham working on a major motion picture. We have all heard about Atlanta becoming "Hollywood South" but it looks like Hollywood just prefers the SOUTH.
