Cheers and Jeers

To Linda, Gerald and Bill, AARP Tax-Aide preparers, for their time, dedication, knowledge and patience. We are blessed. Ann and Roland Kelley, Colleyville   Cheers: To the person who paid for my dinner at Catfish & Company in Hurst on April 12. Bettye Ratliff, Hurst   Cheers: To the Arlington police officer who took a fake gun away from a kid, instead of the alternative. Really quick thinking. Brooks Todd, Arlington   Cheers: To the wonderful vets and staff at The Cat’s Meow Veterinary Hospital. I took my beloved 15-year-old cat, Katie, to them. She was so sick but she still started purring. She had to be euthanized but they were so kind! It eased her passing. Sue Davis, Fort Worth   Cheers: To Kimberly Johnson and the workers from Corelogic who saved a baby duck from death in a drain. The duck was saved and money raised to send it to a wildlife center. These wonderful people made up for uncaring security and maintenance staff. Robert Parker, Fort Worth   Cheers: To the recent inductees to the National Junior Honor Society at Cross Timbers Middle School. Jeers to the two fathers in the front row who found their iPhones more important than the ceremony. Great example to set. William Taylor, Colleyville   Cheers: To Tarrant Roofing, especially Roger Walden and his crew. Roger took care of everything. In by 6 a.m. and gone before 3 p.m. Excellent. Phyllis Roberts, Kennedale   Jeers: To the irresponsible person in a white pickup who backed into my parked car, doing significant damage, on March 31 and then drove off. Cheers to the Fed Ex driver who witnessed this and found me in my doctor’s north Arlington office to tell me about it. Patty Baker, Mansfield   Cheers: To Dr. Michael Morris and staff at Animal Hospital Southwest. Dr Morris has provided care for our loved ones for more than 30 years, always with exceptional knowledge, kindness and compassion. Recently he was there for us with our loss and we are forever grateful. Ellen and Emily O’Neal, Fort Worth   Cheers: To the Burleson High School Prom After Dark committee for putting together a safe and fun party for students after the prom.

Aztecs hoops secret: Avoid 'bad' losses

Division II Angelo State, are picked to finish fifth in the Sun Belt Conference and have a roster filled with guys from Colleyville, Texas; Radcliff, Ky.; Pine Bluff, Ark.; Bossier City, La.; and Yazoo City, Miss. The Aztecs will be favored to win. But here’s their secret about these games: They always do. To reach the NCAA Tournament six straight seasons, something only seven other Div. I programs can say, you have to do many things right. Two of the most important, at least in the eyes of the omnipotent selection committee, are amassing “quality” wins and avoiding “bad” losses. You want wins highlighted in green when they project your “body of work” on the screen in the conference room of the Indianapolis hotel in March; you don’t want losses illuminated in red. And few teams are better at the latter, unglamorous component of building an NCAA Tournament resume than Steve Fisher’s Aztecs. It has become a quiet, overlooked hallmark of the program. They rarely lose games they shouldn’t, and never do at home. “We’ve taken pride in it,” Fisher said. “We’ve talked to our players about it: We don’t lose these games.
