Brought to you in part by South Plains College. The Road To Raiderland Runs Through Levelland!
Happy Tuesday, Y’all !
We woke up to temps in the low 30s and snow flurries this morning on the South Plains! Great way to get into the Christmas Spirit. Since we have decided to skip fall this year and move straight to winter in a few weeks, glad to have some seasonal weather. I’ve still got a lot of long-sleeve shirts that haven’t seen the light of day this fall!
Beyond felling like Christmas, it’s also Transfer Portal Season. They set a record yesterday and broke the computer system that runs the whole deal. Sounds about right.
No surprises for Texas Tech fans which is good. They players saying they were gonna go for the most part are in the portal now. The interesting thing will be who comes in with Texas Tech hiring several new coaches.
We’ll look at that plus more CFB and Hoops as well as the hapless Dallas Cowboys tonight on The Daily Broadcast. Join us LIVE at 6:30 Central on X, YouTube or Facebook Live. Your choice!

Tuesday’s Best
We always want to celebrate Greatness around Raiderland and today is no exception. On Tuesday’s we give you a topic and you give us your two best/favorite example of the topic. Sometimes sports, sometimes not. Today is a “not”.
Best Holiday Snacks/Treats
There’s certain foods and snacks that only seem to be strong during the holidays. What are your Two Favorites? From Fruitcakes to Fudge, chocolate covered pretzels, rum balls, sugar cookies like trees, you tell us today. We’ll give you a couple.
- Homemade Peanut Brittle. Done right, it is out of this world. Only shows up about six weeks out of the year. Don’t know why it isn’t stronger the rest of the year. If you get some, consider yourself lucky!
- Fruitcake. Yep. Stay with me. High quality, fresh fruitcake is great. Serve it warm and put just a little butter on there. Some folks add a dash of cinnamon as well. If you’ve never had real, great fruitcake, you just don’t get it. Very hard to find so good luck.
OK, there’s a couple of things to get you started. Fire away in the comments below and tell us about your favorite Christmas snack and treats!
Raiderland Hot Links
Each morning, we serve ’em up Fresh and Hot! The Best links from Raiderland and Beyond!
As a former resident of SoCal and sibling of a Pepperdine graduate (a student during the “Battle of the Network Stars” era) we got to attend the taping of the show – I think I gave a frisbee to Finkner with the show logo.
What stands out to me the most, besides the show’s efforts to get the female stars into wet clothing as much as possible, was how accessible everyone was to intermingle with the public – there was very little security – the break areas and restrooms were the same.
But what cracked me up today watching the video was the quote from Howard, “Letterman bringing up the rear, he’s used to that” 🤣
Thanks for sharing! Brought up some good memories. Now I gotta go ask my sister if she still has the pics. (one of which is me with Cheryl Tiegs)
