Editor's Note - September 2024

 

I love a good nostalgia story. But I would never have imagined that I would find myself enamored with a story about an Aggie tradition. I am a proud Longhorn. I have never been to Kyle Field. Once, I sold a car because it was maroon instead of the promised cherry-red. However, I recently found out the story behind the legendary 12th Man Kickoff Team at Texas A&M, led by Coach Jackie Sherrill. I still can’t believe I said yes to this much maroon in The Buzz, but I'm so glad I did. Speaking of sports and nostalgia, everyone will agree that having a neighbor who was an original WNBA player – and the inspiration for a Disney movie – can give us all something to be proud of. And speaking of being proud of Houston athletes, meet four Buzz-area baseball players who were recently selected in the MLB draft. To sweeten this issue, meet a Buzz resident who finds joy in baking – and sharing –  delicious pastries. This issue is full of talented, interesting residents. And because I can’t help it, I will end with this: Hook ’em. [email protected]
