Turnaround by the Vikings and collapse by the Chargers make for a first in the NFL

The Minnesota Vikings and Los Angeles Chargers are the surprising last teams standing with a zero in either the win or the loss column. The Vikings beat Indianapolis 16-10 on Sunday and are now the only undefeated team remaining after losses by San Francisco and Kansas City, while the Chargers are the last winless team after Miami beat the New York Jets. That makes this season the first in the Super Bowl era, according to Sportradar, when the last undefeated team missed the playoffs the previous season and the last winless team made the previous postseason. While the Vikings and Chargers are on opposite sides of the standings, they are tied in one statistic that shows just how unlikely this 6-0 start is for Minnesota. The teams are averaging 1.5 offensive touchdowns per game for the second-lowest mark in the NFL. The Vikings scored five TDs on offense in the opener against Green Bay and…

Greg Abbott, Gina Hinojosa each post biggest fundraising hauls yet in final leg of Texas governor’s race

The third-term GOP governor’s burst of fundraising and spending was especially notable, signaling how seriously he is taking the once-overlooked race. A remarkable amount of money flowed into the Texas governor's race over the last month, marked by a furious fundraising push by Gov. Greg Abbott as he finds himself in an unusually competitive race against Democrat Gina Hinojosa. Abbott also spent heavily, dropping $35.8 million in the last month. His outflow of more than $1 million a day mostly went toward television ads, which, in tandem with Musk-funded spots boosting Senate nominee Ken Paxton, have dominated Texans' commercial breaks for weeks. The staggering sums are a sign of how tight the race is and how seriously Abbott is taking the threat, with a handful of public polls putting the governor behind for the first time in any of his four gubernatorial runs. Monday's campaign…

This Witte Museum exhibit leads visitors on a Texas culinary tour through time

Before there were tacos and barbecued brisket, there was corn. Before there were culinarians and Michelin star chefs, there were the Caddo. Travel back to 700 A.D., and you’ll find members of Native American tribes cultivating corn beneath the East Texas sun. Leap forward to present-day San Antonio and you’ll see Rico Torres and Diego Galicia helming a Michelin-starred restaurant in Southtown. A compelling exhibit at the Witte Museum, “Gather ‘Round the Table: Texas Food Traditions,” compresses 1300 years of gastronomic history into a one gallery that covers 5,500 square feet. “Texans are foodies,” said Nalleli Guillen, vice president of interpretation and curator of history at the Witte Museum. “People love their barbecue. Their Tex-Mex. ‘Gather ‘Round The Table’ is what we hope is an accessible way for people to enter and think about Texas history and culture.” Central to the exhibit…

Andy Reid Announces Positive Rashee Rice Injury Development

The Kansas City Chiefs returned to the practice field Wednesday to prepare to take on the Denver Broncos in Week 8. Kansas City is coming off its first loss of the season, defeated by the Seattle Seahawks 20-3 last week. The Chiefs beat Denver handily 31-10 back in Week 1, and will look for the season sweep on Sunday. While speaking to the media, coach Andy Reid announced that every player on the active 53-man roster will practice on Wednesday. That includes the Chiefs’ top wide receiver Rashee Rice, who has missed the last two games with a hamstring injury. Rice injured his hamstring early on during Kansas City’s Week 4 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. With the bye week included, he has now had nearly a month to rest and recover. Although he didn’t officially participate, Rice was present at every practice during his absence and did little workouts to the side. If Rice participates in…
