RAZORBACKS ANNOUNCE DEPARTURE FROM SEC

                   

University of Arkansas at Fayetteville Athletic Director Jeff Long announced today that effective the 2015-2016 school year, the UAF football program would no longer be a member of the Southeastern Conference. 

Instead Long said “ they would join the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision of Independent Schools and only play teams that there was a 100% certainty that they could beat”. Long added that “ our fans hate losing and another season of getting pounded by teams in the SEC would be more than they could stand”.

PULASKI COUNTY SETS TRAP FOR TIRE TACKER

Pulaski County installed bear traps this week along county roads northwest of Little Rock due to tacks appearing on County Farm Road that punctured tires of several cyclists’ tires riding in the Bike and Hike for ALS. “We’ve got bear traps out there to catch the stupid person who did it,” Pulaski County Judge Buddy Villines said. Villines stated that he authorized the county to purchase a dozen #16 grizzly bear traps at a cost of $279.99 each.

Pulaski County sheriff’s office spokesman Lt. Carl Minden said if a person were arrested in the incidents, he would be charged with criminal mischief, a misdemeanor, unless a report is filed alleging $1,000 or more in damage. “It’s going to be hard catching somebody doing it, unless they get a leg caught in one of those traps” Minden said.
