In collaboration with Tunnels to Towers, we were honored to present our Veteran of the Game, U.S.M.C Corporal Adrian Simone, with the keys to a mortgage-free, custom-built, smart home.

In 2011, Adrian lost both of his legs after he was wounded by an IED in Afghanistan.

[Kansas City Chiefs @Chiefs]

Today's a big day for the man behind the mask, and not just because it's National Mascot Day. After 35 years as KC Wolf, Dan Meers will be officially hanging up the suit.

Dan has been an integral part of #ChiefsKingdom for over three decades and has cemented himself as one of the best mascots of all time!

Stay tuned as we'll be sharing some of our favorite KC Wolf moments in the coming weeks before his official retirement on July 1 ❤️

[Kelvin Beachum Jr @KelvinBeachumJr]

Thanks for the birthday love. 29 again 😜😂 #ForeverYoung

[Mason Anderson QB 2029 @MasonAndersonQB]

Thank you @JK_Kelley for this camp. I have been to so many camps across the country and this one has the most current and Ex-NFL players than any of them. @NFL Hall of Famers like @thurmanthomas and @BuffaloBills Wall of Famers like Darryl Talley @DarrylTalley . Current Bill @JoeAndreessen was even there. Too many to list. And they all are hands on coaching. I loved it

My favorite part was 1v1 but the funniest was the coaches tug o war.

This is devastating..

Jim had friendships with a lot of his former players.. I was lucky to be one of them.

Playing for a team that Mr Irsay ran was an honor. He was funny, brilliant, unique, and somehow still wildly relatable for a man who became the sole owner of an NFL team at the age of 37.. and before that, hired as the youngest general manager in the history of the league as a 24 year old.

He battled his demons, as we all do but, God blessed Jim Irsay with an abundance of compassion.. he wanted to give back/help everybody and everything he saw or knew about… putting a list together of all of the causes/things/people that he’s given to would be an impossible task.. probably well over $100,000,000.. there was even a whale about to get an assist from Jim at one point.

The 1st time he and I really had an extended convo was at training camp after the lockout in 2011.. players and front office weren’t allowed to communicate with each other during the lockout but, Jim followed me on Twitter throughout the CBA negotiations.. his first day at training camp, immediately after the lockout ended, he drove his golf cart over to where I was and started firing off questions about Twitter.. He enjoyed the thought of being able to connect with Colts fans all over the world.. he appreciated the opportunity to be able to share some of his thoughts in his own way.. and he absolutely LOVED the idea of being able to give money/experiences/tickets/etc. away to people on Twitter.

He was a mogul who had a creative artist’s brain.. Everything he did he wanted to do in a big and imaginative way.. his Twitter Giveaways became just that.. he wanted them to be awesome... and they were. He was a Billionaire who yearned to share his wealth in fun ways.

Anybody that met him would say that he seemingly woke up everyday wanting to help people.. life got in the way sometimes but, anybody who actually knew him, loved him.

A true anomaly.

When I decided to retire.. he and I had a 2.5 hour conversation in his office. He was sitting at his desk.. hitting the shit out of his vape .. and we talked about everything I was hoping to go do.

He tried to stop me for a few minutes.. even offered to renegotiate my contract.. and then once he realized my decision was made.. the convo turned into him trying to give me as much game as possible about running a business and maintaining authenticity. He gave me quotes and words to live by.. told me stories of mistakes he and others had made and he promised he would do anything he could to help me in my venture.

“If for some reason this doesn’t work or you don’t want to do it anymore, you’ll always have a job here at the Colts. You are family.”

Since that day.. Jim has done everything he can to help me succeed.. He’d join our show anytime I asked, no matter where he was in the world.. He’d send me motivational messages when he heard I was going thru something.. he’d forward articles that he’d come across that he thought I should read.. He’d answer any question I had about decisions I had to make.. and he even offered up his connections if I wanted to “buy that lovely wife of yours something nice brother”

Jim was a real one.. and we will all miss the shit out of him.

I send my positive prayers and vibes to his daughters, his grandkids, his loved ones, his staff, and everybody who has been working with Jim for the last 40 years.

Thank you for EVERYTHING big man.. You were a damn legend.

Rest Easy, brother.
