Officials are investigating what may have killed some 100,000 fish in the Arkansas River in the northwestern section of the state, authorities said on Sunday.

This sounds like a bad horror movie, first thousands of birds drop dead from the sky in Beebe Arkansas, and now 100,000 fish are found dead in the Arkansas River.

Yesterday when I wrote about the dead birds in my article "Thousands of Blackbirds Drop Dead From The Sky In Arkansas! Wrath of God?", I was moved to use apocalyptic language. When thousands of birds fall from the sky and tens of thousands of fish mysteriously die, it`s reminiscent of the Biblical plagues.

I`m a freethinker who doesn`t see the hand of God in these natural disasters, but I invoke the Almighty to dramatize the magnitude of the calamity. I don`t plan on donning a white robe and heading to the nearest mountain to wait for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

Pollutants and poisons have been ruled out because only the drum fish were killed. Pollutants would have wiped out all the fish in the Arkansas River. Poison has also been ruled out in the mysterious death of the birds.

In a horror flick residents of Arkansas would soon be dropping dead like flies, only to come back to life as zombies.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
