Here is the final ranking. One-loss Oklahoma made the four-team playoff, joining undefeated teams Alabama, Clemson, and Notre Dame. The only other undefeated team, UCF, missed out, finishing seventh.

“Too big to fail” has come a long way since 2008, when we learned that the very corporations that created the Great Recession would not be held accountable. On the contrary, the taxpayers they betrayed were made responsible for nurturing them back to health.

Now we have a president who thinks he’s too big to fail himself, supporting tyrants in Russia and Saudi Arabia.

More than 240 years ago, our nation was founded on the premise that the King of England was not too big to fail.

President George H.W. Bush led a long, successful and beautiful life. Whenever I was with him I saw his absolute joy for life and true pride in his family. His accomplishments were great from beginning to end. He was a truly wonderful man and will be missed by all!

To the editor:

The absurdist dark comedy known as the Trump administration, by cutting regulations in a way that it knows will result in more premature deaths and other poor outcomes, continues its race to the bottom of civil society.

Like we really needed additional studies to inform us that breathing dirtier air, drinking dirtier water and having reduced access to healthcare come with real human consequences. Or that siding with predatory student lenders over students would result in increased student debt burdens. Who knew?

These admissions from the administration itself do not include the economic costs of the thoughtless and arbitrary tariffs, most of which kick in this January.

What remains remarkable is the level of support the administration continues to receive from the very group of Americans that will bear the brunt of these retrograde policy choices.

Note from KBJ: We love President Trump, Mark. We're going to elect him again in 2020.
