@dansolomon @mikehalltexas @TexasMonthly Notably the one thing OJ was famous for
Okay, so OJ Simpson ran for 2,000 yards and it was a pretty big deal, but now @dansolomon has written 2,000 @TexasMonthly stories and not only has he never gone on trial for murder but this story is about basketball, Baylor, & Chip Gaines! Congrats, Dan! texasmonthly.com/arts-entertain…
@dansolomon Regardless... I'm sure this involved yeoman's work, and you all came up with a great conversation starter. Big fan of your work and really appreciate the response 👊
@dansolomon Much like college football, much of what makes this work is the controversy. And then weighing different criteria - including all the elements you mentioned. And then... are we weighing for what Texans think - or people outside of Texas??
@dansolomon Hey Dan - thanks SO much for this response. For what it's worth... much of my quibbling is because of how fun this whole debate is. We spent a good 10 minutes in our newsroom meeting the other day (and on air) going over the bracket...
Ultimately it's hard to quibble with the Final Four. Feels like Beyonce' belongs here but she was a victim of that aforementioned poor draw in the Music region. And even though Willie warned mommas not to their babies grow up to be cowboys... it's easy to see why he's the champ.
Some head-scratching inclusions. Like what was Elon Musk doing in this competition in the first place? Awkwardly wearing a cowboy hat doesn't make him a Texan. And by the magazine's own admission including Dakota Johnson as a Texan is... a stretch.
The Wild Card round has some head scratchers. Jenna Bush somehow made it in over her dad, who once part owned the Texas Rangers and WAS A U.S. PRESIDENT. But I especially loved the 16 vs 1 upset: Thomas J. Henry taking out Elon Musk. Which brings up...
Moving to the Hollywood region, it's hard to argue with McConaughey as the 1 seed. And Jesse Plemons' work on Friday Night Lights rightfully earned him the 10/7 win over Glen Powell.
In the Sports region, please explain how Texas native (and Tech grad) Patrick Mahomes is a 13 seed against C.J. Stroud - who has lived in Texas for exactly 1 year, and grew up in CALIFORNIA - at 6?? And Luka Doncic earns a 2 and Tim Duncan is a 5... but where's Dirk Nowitzki??
Like in the Music region, Beyonce shares a bracket with George Strait, Willie, AND Selena. Also... Travis Scott at a 3?? Probably no surprise Erykah Badu won as a 14 seed, though that makes her out to be a Cinderella when she likely deserved at least an 8 or 9 seed.
For starters, they decided to break the brackets down into four regions: Music, Hollywood, Sports and Wild Card. Which meant some terrible draws and early matchups for a few blue-blood contenders.
I don't disagree with Willie Nelson as the overall champion, but how @TexasMonthly picked its Ultimate Texas Celebrity deserves a thread. 🧵
