1. Everyone involved with the construction of the collapsed Cowboys practice facility is distancing from the thing, including the engineer listed as responsible for its design.

2. As the DISD board tries to figure out what do about the three seats that should have been up for a vote this Saturday (you’ll recall that the A.G. ruled trustees cheated when they recently extended their terms), more bad news trickles out of the district: Booker T.
