Live from Ratliff Stadium, it's the Permian Panthers home and district opener against the San Angelo Central Bobcats, and the OA will be updating the action as often as possible. A couple of pregame observations from the press box, 45 minutes until game time.

-- Absolutely gorgeous day for football. Barely a cloud in the sky, wind blowing from south to north according to the flags at the top of the stadium.

-- Fun fact of the day: Wish I would have had this in my column today, but OA columnist and former San Angelo Central student Ken Brodnax informed me today that the Bobcats mascot used to be a live bobcat. Not kidding. A real live, mouse-eating, big teeth and biting bobcat. Apparently the thing was named Dynamite.

They kept it caged, though.

Which made OA photographer Kevin Buehler and I wonder. Could Permian find itself a live panther? Run it around the field like Texas does with Bevo?

I bet Garrett Porter could handle the leash.

Might not be the safest mascot in the world, but I guarantee the San Angelo Central players would think twice about running out of bounds this week.

-- Kevin and Joel's Meal of the Week: That's right, we're not stopping a good thing simply because we're at home.

Today's restaurant: Keith's Hamburger Station, down on Andrews Highway across from Ector County Coliseum. Claims it has the world's best steak fingers.

And I gotta say, they're pretty good. Put it this way, it's a good thing I worked out today - and yesterday - because after all the steak fingers, fries and cheese sticks, I'm pretty stuffed. And as for Kevin Buehler's Dessert of the Week, the OA photographer went for apple pie and Blue Bell vanilla ice cream. His thoughts?

"I wasn't thrilled with it," - Kevin has high standards for his desserts - "but the ice cream made up for everything."
