James Garner explains how Steve McQueen was convinced to continue working in "The Great Escape" (1963) after he quit midway: "In the middle of the shoot, McQueen walked out of the picture. He’d seen about an hour's worth of dailies and didn't like how he looked. Wanted to reshoot the whole thing. Of course, they couldn’t reshoot that much footage—it would have taken too long and cost too much money. Steve’s agents flew in from the States and had a showdown with Sturges. The next day Sturges called me in and said, “Jim, McQueen’s out and you're the star of the picture. We'll change a few things here and there. It'll work.” I didn’t see how it could possibly work, and neither did Jimmy Coburn, so the two of us sat down with Steve at my rented house in Munich and asked him what the problem was. “I don’t like the part. I’m not the hero. And the stuff they have me doing is corny.” “Well, Steve, the reason you're not the hero is because it’s an ensemble cast. There are a lot of heroes.” Steve could be a stubborn little cuss, but Jimmy and I finally convinced him to stay on the picture. To pacify him, Sturges added some motorcycle stunts and changed his character, Hilts, the Cooler King, to a guy who goes out to reconnoiter the surrounding countryside, then unselfishly allows himself to be recaptured so he can share the information with the others. There were no Americans in the actual escape; they'd all been transferred to other camps before the tunnel was finished. And there never was a motorcycle chase, but | think it’s the most exciting and memorable part of the movie. When people think of 'The Great Escape', they think of Steve on that motorcycle." ("The Garner Files", James Garner & Jon Winokur, 2011) P.S: On this day, 63 years ago, John Sturges' "The Great Escape" (1963) premiered in London, UK.

🎥 Arda Güler’s post-match interview. 🎙️He is with us now, the author of probably the best goal of the season, Arda Güler. Congratulations. How would you describe in Spanish the amazing goal you scored? • "Thank you very much. A great goal, and I'm very happy. Hala Madrid!" 🎙️Have you seen your goal already? Have you watched it? • "Yes." 🎙️I want you to watch it and tell us live on Real Madrid TV what you feel when you see your work of art. • "Yes, here I looked at the goalkeeper, and the goalkeeper was not in a good position. I tried it -and great goal." 🎙️How much credit does today's win deserve after all the effort against Manchester City, Arda? • "Of course, we were a little tired, but we knew we had to win this match. That is why it was important to count on all the young players, because with the support of the academy players we were able to play a good match and achieve a clear victory!" 🎙️You scored your goal and then hugged the coach, with Álvaro Arbeloa. What does he want from you? What does Arbeloa ask of you? • "We have a very good relationship with the coach. We are with him both in the good moments and in the difficult ones. Today, after the goal, I went to celebrate with him and with everyone. The coach asks different things of me depending on the position. When I play deeper, he wants me more involved in the build-up, and when I am further forward, he asks me to play more between the lines and be more direct. I always try to do the best I can." 🎙️And on Tuesday, Arda, a key match against Manchester City? • "Yes, we have to go out looking for the match from the start, take advantage of playing at home, and that way we can score more goals!" 🎙️Thank you, and keep scoring more amazing goals like that. • "Yes, let's go - Hala Madrid" 😁😄🤍

Steve Jobs on why the Beatles were his business model: In a 60 Minutes interview, Steve Jobs is asked about his approach to business. His answer? The Beatles. "My model of business is the Beatles. They were four very talented guys, four guys who kept each other's negative tendencies in check. They balanced each other and the sum was greater. The total was greater than the sum of the parts." Steve explains that this is how he sees business: "Great things in business are never done by one person; they're done by a team of people." He points to what happened when the Beatles split up as evidence: "When the Beatles were together, they did truly brilliant, innovative work. And when they split up, they did good work, but it was never the same. And I see business that way, too. It's really always a team." When asked about his biggest strength as a person, Steve's answer reinforces this team-first philosophy: "I've been very lucky in meeting incredibly talented people and hanging out with them. And so that's been my greatest strength." But Steve also warns about what can undermine great teams — arrogance: "All of us need to be on guard against arrogance which knocks at the door whenever you're successful." When asked if he'd lived through that himself, Steve acknowledges he had. The interviewer points to Apple's initial success and the sobering reality of competitors catching up. Steve goes further: "As you may know, I was basically fired from Apple when I was 30 and was invited to come back 12 years later. So that was difficult when it happened, but maybe the best thing that ever happened to me. There wouldn't be a Pixar if that hadn't happened. And so you know, you just move on. Life goes on and you learn from it." Asked if returning to Apple at 42 felt like sweet vindication, Steve's response reveals his broader outlook: "No. I thought at that moment what a circle of life. Life is just always mysterious and surprising and you never know what's around the next corner."

What happened to the aging NFL wide receiver? A thread: I was thinking today about how the NFL hasn’t had a WR sustain elite-level success into his late 30s in a long time. Steve Smith is the perfect example. He was ridiculous from ages 32 to 37. Over his final six seasons, he averaged: 8 targets per game 5 receptions per game 69.6 yards per game That works out to a 17-game pace of roughly 85/1,184/5 from ages 32–37. In 2015, at age 36, before going down with a midseason injury, Smith was on pace for 112/1,627/7. There seems to be a pretty clear cutoff around age 33. The last WR to have a 1,200+ yard season at age 33 or older was Reggie Wayne in 2012. What’s even more fascinating is that high-end WR production beyond 35 is essentially unheard of now, but there was a period where it was surprisingly common. From 1991–2014, there were 17 instances of a WR recording 1,000+ receiving yards at age 35 or older. A couple of interesting takeaways: 10 of the 17 happened at exactly age 35, and Jerry Rice accounts for three of the seven age-36+ seasons by himself. Rice putting up 1,211 yards at FORTY years old is absurd -- his receiving record likely won't be broken. As of the end of the 2025 NFL season, we’ve now gone 11 straight seasons without a 35+ year old WR reaching 1,000 yards. Since 2020, we’ve seen just two WRs age 31 or older put up 1,100+ receiving yards: Keenan Allen with 1,243 yards at age 31 and Davante Adams with 1,144 yards at age 31... both in 2023. Ironically, those two guys might be our best chance to see sustained, high-level WR play into the mid-30s again. So what has changed? Why does it seem like high-end WR play beyond age 33 has basically disappeared over the last decade? My thoughts below: (Smith is 35 years old in the clip below).
