News Roundup

The biggest story is President Obama’s final State of the Union address. I didn’t sit around and watch it but I will get a rundown of what all was in it on like The Daily Show and Colbert

In the world of football there are two large stories Alabama winning another College Football National Championship by defeating Clemson in a shootout on Monday night, now Alabama just needs a dozen more championships to tie Princeton for the most all time National Championships. I doubt Nick Saban will be around that long, some have even speculated that he might be ending his time on the Alabama sidelines. On the Professional side the Rams are moving back to Los Angeles. This has been something that seems like a 20 year long error, moving the team to Saint Louis was a foolish idea since it left one of the largest media markets without an NFL team.

News Round up

But the biggest news of the week is the State of the Union Address. NPR has a nice wrap up of the event. President Obama brought to Congress and the American people a bunch of ideas and something should come from it. A lot of what was proposed wold help the middle class (raising the minimum wage, lessening the cost of child care, free community college).
