Special moment for me last night wrapping up the regular season. I had my first linebacker coach come to the last game of the season. This game being special because it was the first place I took a snap as a linebacker in 2020 (yes, I’ve only been playing this position for a legit 4 years ). Anyways, it was this man that told me at one of my lowest points I would get drafted and play in this league. And all he asked for was a signed jersey. All-way love, coach. There will be more growth as you taught me never to settle !!!! Brian Ward

The Kamala-Biden regime has officially imprisoned pro-lifer Bevelyn Beatty Williams to serve three years for protesting abortion outside Planned Parenthood. Her husband said, "The Biden-Harris administration made me a single father," Also telling Americans to vote for Trump. "Obama has the audacity to speak to black men and tell black men they need to vote for Kamala Harris when Kamala Harris administration is separating me from my wife and my wife from her daughter at two years old for unlawful assembly." Watching Bevelyn stand up to BLM & fight for Trump in 2020 was one of the big inspirations for me to get involved. We're not just voting for Trump because this is a game. It's life or prison or even death for some. I hope President Trump pardons her as one of his first actions, as well as firing the demons at the DOJ that did this. God bless the Williams family.

The coolest thing for me as a kid wasn’t only finding out my uncle was a professional football player for 11 years but seeing the “Karate Kid” wearing his jersey in the movie. Wes Chandler the great wide receiver to EVER play at the university of Florida! Also a college and nfl receiver coach for years. Taught me to be a man,husband, father, player, coach, protector and provider. If you want to know who Dallas Baker is this is a great example. You’ve made impact on many, such as greats like Peyton Manning. Thank you for the vision and I love you.

In a fawning promo for the Obamas, GMA asks Barack how he finds a balance of staying quiet or speaking out post-presidency. He says his initial goal was to emulate George Washington: "I've done my done my stint, and now I'm going back home." “What I've tried to do is move from player to coach." This schtick is really something. He’s ever-present on podcasts, network interviews, campaign trails and railing at every major Democrat event. He can’t stand being out of the spotlight for five minutes, and it’s been like that for ten years.

If you were wondering why Khamzat Chimaev had such a bad weight cut look no further. 😭 They were literally training down the street from one of the best strength and conditioning coaches in MMA my guy Chase, who also trains all the Kings MMA pro fighters. Coach Cal was a math teacher for 35 years and did run a decent wrestling camp in Montana for years as well as do triathlons but that David Goggins type training method did not help Khamzat at all in his fight with Strickland the same way it didn’t help Tony Ferguson or Izzy.

After 19 years in coaching, I stepped away this spring to spend more time with my family. I loved coaching. I didn’t love how much time it took away from everything else. That’s a big reason I built ONE MORE. An AI assistant that learns how YOU coach and helps turn what’s in your head into something you can actually use, in a fraction of the time. The goal is simple: help coaches coach at a high level without letting coaching consume their lives. Here’s a 30-second look at what we’re building 👇 I’m opening the first wave of beta testing now.

Today was one of the hardest days in my Franklin County high school basketball career. Since I was in 6th grade, I could not wait to play for the lady flyers. It felt so good to see coach Thacker support us at our middle school games. My first year playing was my 7th grade year. Since then, Joey Thacker has coached, trained, motivated, encouraged, and pushed me to be what he knows I could be. He held me accountable while also congratulating me on jobs well done. I watched him sacrifice day after day to be in the gym with us. He stayed strong while his family was handling health concerns. No matter what, he has always been there for us. For me, he has been one of the best coaches I have ever had. I have so much I could say, I’m just having a hard time getting my thoughts out. I love you coach Thacker. Thank you for being a coach that realty cared about his players and not about the wins and losses. Thank you for your sacrifices. Thank you for building a program that set the standard in the 11th region. After 22 years, 1 2A state championship, 2 sweet 16 state runner ups, 5 elite 8 finishes, 7 11th region championships, 94 straight 41st district wins with 12 straight district titles, and countless tournament championships, my coach will be retiring. It hurts to not be able to finish up my high school career with him as my coach, but I am so happy for him and his family. I am happy to say I played for Coach Thacker since my 7th grade year and would not trade any minute of it. I would have love to have just 1 more year with you. 💔As always, I will continue to text you even if you are not my coach anymore lol. Sorry I didn’t get you the KHSAA state championship😞. I am going to miss you coaching me. Love you coach. #thegoat🐐

Kevin Durant says he wears No. 35 to honor his late childhood coach “Charles Craig. That was my first coach when I was about eight years old. I started playing at this rec center down the street from my house. He took a liking to me because of my size and how quick I was to get up the court at my size. So he just started working with me from like 8 to 12 he was my coach” “The neighborhood got into some stuff one night. It escalated, and he got murdered at a barber shop probably when I was a junior in high school, just about to make my decision to go to college and make that next step. It was devastating. It was shocking for that to happen” “Periodically I think about it. I wish he could see all the stuff that I've done so far, but I always live with that number on me. That's why I wear that number, because he died at that age. So I try to keep something around that symbolizes what he meant to me” “It was a tough time, not just for me, because he coached a lot of my friends that went on to play outside of high school, and they wear the number too. It's kind of a connection that we all have coming from that rec center that he coached at. I just try to carry his name as much as I could. That's why I wear that number”

Stan Van Gundy turned down $37,000 to make $7,500 because his dad told him to choose responsibility over money “It’s 1983, And I ended up with two job opportunities at the same time. I could have gone as the assistant at Dartmouth… That job was paying like $37,000. Or I could go as the head coach to Castleton State, which was a Division III program, for $7,500 bucks a year. So like a five-times difference.” “I remember calling my dad. He said, ‘If you want to coach, take the responsibility over the money.’ ‘You’re 24. You don’t need the money.’ He said, ‘Once you have more money, you’ll never go backwards, so then you’d never take a job like that again.’” “He said ‘The bottom line is $7,500 is good for you because if they were paying more, you couldn’t get it!’ He said ‘They’re stuck with you a $7,500 and 2 years of experience. And so that’s what I did.” “And the opportunity to be a head coach, and inherit a really good team at that level, was great. And with great people who virtually every single one of them I’m still in touch with now. And again, learned a lot from them in terms of how to coach. I came in with all the answers… My dad would say ‘If you got all the answers, it’s only because you don’t know all the questions.’ I remember thinking that’s so true in any job. “It was great experience to be able to coach my own team. I was two years older than most of the players… It’s still the most fun I’ve ever had coaching, and I’ve coached a ton of NBA teams.”

Evans is currently ranked No. 3 in the SC Next 25 for his class. While scouting him as he played two age groups up with Austin Rivers SE Elite U17 squad on the Adidas 3SSB circuit, he was consistently scoring and rebounding. He was also the youngest player selected for both the Adidas NXT Generation and Eurocamp this year. He more than held his own. He is a very coachable with a high upside due to his length, skill set and explosiveness. His dad was a beast at Iowa and played in the NBA for over 10 years. He holds early offers from: FSU Iowa NC State Miami Georgia Tech FAU Providence Sacramento State

Kerry Kennedy says that RFK Jr’s partnership with Trump is a betrayal to their fathers legacy: “If my father were alive today, he would detest almost everything Donald Trump represents.” “I'm outraged and disgusted by my brother's gaudy and obscene embrace of Donald Trump. I love my brother, but this is an outrage and I completely disavow and separate and disassociate myself from him on this issue.” “There's so much at stake in this election. This is why almost every single person in my family is fighting so hard to re-elect Kamala Harris and Coach Waltz, because they've been champions of the values my family has fought for.” Kerry Kennedy realizes that weaponizing our government systems, holding the most undemocratic Democratic primary in history, suing to keep political opponents off of ballots, pro-censorship, pro division over unity, and pro-war are the antithesis of what her father and uncle would stand for right? That’s what Harris/Walz represent. I doubt JFK and RFK Sr. would be fans of Trump either, but what world is she living in that they would support what the Democrat party elites have created the party into. She says she loves her brother but then completely disavows him because he disagrees with her politically, and says nothing when Biden/Harris take away his Secret Service Protection putting his life at risk. Kerry Kennedy and other Kennedy family members who have been sucked into this extreme polar thinking need to do some deep contemplation on what JFK and RFK Sr. actually stood for.

📣🚨 NEW FSU MEMBER TESTIMONIAL Steve Horner is a Reform UK councillor on Teignbridge District Council in Devon. He stood as a parliamentary candidate in the 2024 general election. In his testimonial, Steve speaks about the abuse he has faced in recent years due to his support for Reform UK. Concerned about how public bodies might respond — and what that could mean for his ability to exercise his right to free speech — he joined the Free Speech Union. He initially joined for our content, but soon found himself in need of our support. As a district councillor, Steve raised concerns on Facebook about the covert placement of Afghan migrants in his area, citing the costs to local residents and the fact that the public had not voted for this. He received his first formal complaint for challenging Devon County Council and standing up for the residents he represents. Following his post, a complaint alleged that he had breached the council’s code of conduct. With the support of the Free Speech Union, Steve submitted a response, and the monitoring officer ultimately dismissed the complaint. A number of similar complaints were also subsequently dismissed. Later a new more serious, seemingly professionally framed complaint was sent to the Council after Steve raised concerns about potential discrimination by the Arts Council. With our support once again, the complaint against him was dropped. But it didn’t end there. Steve was later targeted by a political opponent in the district council who in a publication inferred he was a racist. This was immediately challenged within the confines of the Council, and petered out. However, he now has the FSU on speed dial. We are pleased to have been able to support Steve. At the Free Speech Union, we are increasingly seeing codes of conduct being weaponised to silence those who do not subscribe to prevailing orthodoxies. This is a growing problem across the UK and poses a threat to freedom of speech and our democracy. Watch Cllr Steve Horner’s FSU Member Testimonial below and join the FSU today 👇

And with full knowledge that my opinions are no more or less important than those of any of my fellow citizens, here's my answer: I'm supporting Kamala Harris for President and Tim Waltz for Vice President and opposing Donald Trump and JD Vance. Here's why. We are shortly coming upon one of the most consequential elections in our nation's history. Perhaps not since the Civil War has this great country felt as politically, spiritually, and emotionally divided as it does then at this moment. It doesn't have to be this way. The common values, the shared stories that make us a great and united nation are waiting to be rediscovered and retold once again. Now that will take time, hard work, intelligence, faith and women and men with the national good, guiding their hearts. America's the most powerful nation on earth. Not just because of her overwhelming military strength or economic power, but because of what she stands for, what she means, what she believes in: freedom, social justice, equal opportunity, the right to be and love who you want. These are the things that make America great. Donald Trump is the most dangerous candidate for President in my lifetime. His disdain for the sanctity of our constitution, the sanctity of democracy, the sanctity of the rule of law, and the sanctity of the peaceful transfer of power should disqualify him from the office of President ever again. He doesn't understand the meaning of this country, its history or what it means to be deeply American. On the other hand, Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz are committed to a vision of this country that respects and includes everyone regardless of class, religion, race, your political point of view or sexual identity, and they want to grow our economy in a way that benefits all, not just the few like me on top. That's the vision of America I’ve been consistently writing about for 55 years now. Everybody sees things different, and I respect your choice as a fellow citizen, but like you, I've only got one vote, and it's one of the most precious possessions that I have. That's why come November 5th, I'll be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.”
