One of the greatest teams ever assembled

On this Kentucky Derby day, here’s your reminder that Secretariat was faster than any horse who has ever lived. The year is 1973 and this is his track record run. Untouched for 53 years. The GOAT.

A giant among a very small group of coaches who not only knew how to coach championship basketball, but did it with class, respect for those he interacted with daily and was always ready to help others.

Photo called "Into the Jaws of Death" taken on this day in 1944.

36 men, on the initial storming into the water at Omaha Beach in Normandy.

100 pound backpacks.
Rough seas.
Germans shooting from bluffs on high.

The sacrifice is hard to fathom.

For those that battled, THANK YOU.

With the wounds of Afghanistan still fresh, and D-Day upon us again, I want to highlight something rare in today’s leadership culture: Accountability.

June 5th, 1944. On the eve of the largest amphibious invasion in history, General Eisenhower sat alone, chain smoking cigarettes, burdened by the weight of the free world. The weather was erratic. The risks were monumental. Failure meant catastrophe. Not just for the operation, but for the cause of liberty itself.

And yet, in that moment, he didn’t shift blame or hedge bets. He wrote a letter. A short one. Just a few sentences.

In it, he took full responsibility, before the battle even began. He misdated it, likely from the stress. But the message was clear:

If this fails, blame me. Not the troops. Not the conditions. Me.

That’s what the mantle of command truly looks like.
Not just basking in success, but bearing the full weight of failure too.

As we honor D-Day this year, remember that moment.
Because accountability like that isn’t just historical, it’s aspirational.

And we need more of it.

RIP George Wendt, the great Norm Peterson from “Cheers”…

He provides us with a touching moment in the last scene of the show.

Everybody still and will forever know your name.

Darrell Waltrip won the 1975 Music City USA 420 at Nashville fifty
years ago today. 🏁

He started on the pole and finished two laps ahead of 2nd-place finisher Benny Parsons. It was DW's first career Winston Cup win.

@rarerookies How ironic that we are now playing Tennessee in Indiana.
