Highschool athletes will call their coach “Coach” until he or she dies. It’s a respect thing…

@coachtf Never quite. My team's saying.

Kyle and I had a really challenging existence for many years. But we luckily took the time to figure out our differences and that was something he instigated with a conversation in his bus around how we each managed our racing teams. I was super eager for us to get on better terms. But it was he who made the effort for that to be possible. We did some media together also to laugh through some of the things we put each other through many years ago. Most recently we had even been discussing him running my Late Model at Wilkesboro this summer. He seemed extremely happy and we had planned to meet up next Thursday to get his seat to the shop. He laughed over the idea of his fans and JRM fans having to cheer in unison during that race.

Kyle was one of the greatest drivers in NASCAR history. No one can deny that. But he was also a father, a husband, brother, son, and a friend to many. My heart is broken for the Busch family. I will never be able to make sense of this loss but I am thankful that we had found a way to become friends.

🚨 NY’s Tax Exodus Just Got Worse

NY Gov. Kathy Hochul is stunned by fresh IRS data.

Between 2020-2024, 892 companies fled New York — taking $47 BILLION in income with them.

• Florida: 341 companies
• Texas: 187
• North Carolina: 129

It’s not just billionaires anymore. Middle-class professionals, small business owners, and families are voting with their feet — escaping crushing taxes, regulations, and declining quality of life.

Shrinking tax base = those who stay pay even more.
Hochul once mocked them: “Just get on a bus.”

Now the exodus is accelerating — killing jobs, services, and the economy.

Actions have consequences.

His name was Chris Gardner.

In 1981 he was a medical supply salesman in San Francisco. He had a wife, a baby son, and about $10,000 in debt he couldn't climb out of.

One day he saw a man parking a Ferrari outside a building downtown. He walked up to him. He asked two questions: what do you do, and how do you do it?

The man was a stockbroker.

Gardner went home that night and told his wife he wanted to become one.

She left.

He enrolled in a training program at Dean Witter Reynolds that paid almost nothing. He had to move out of their apartment. He had no place to live with his son.

For nearly a year, Chris Gardner and his toddler son slept wherever they could. Shelters. Bathrooms. Parks. The floor of a subway station.

Every morning he put his son in daycare, put on his best suit, and walked into the office like nothing was wrong.

Nobody at Dean Witter knew.

He became their top trainee. Got hired. Worked.

In 1987 he started his own firm. By the mid-1990s he was a millionaire.

He wrote a book. Will Smith played him in the movie.

He tells the story in speeches now and always ends the same way.

He looks at the audience and says:

"The cavalry ain't coming. You have to be your own cavalry."

[Lemma the Optimist @DoctorLemma]

There is a hotel in the southern United States that employs a man whose official job title is Duckmaster. The position exists nowhere else in the world. Twice a day he puts on a red and gold uniform, takes the elevator up to the rooftop, and walks five ducks down to the lobby. They march across a red carpet to a marble fountain in front of the guests, then swim there until evening.

The tradition started in 1933 when the hotel’s manager came back from a duck hunting trip with too much whiskey in him and dumped his live decoys in the lobby fountain as a prank. Guests loved it. A few years later, a former circus animal trainer working as a bellman at the hotel volunteered to look after the ducks and taught them to march. The hotel gave him the title of Duckmaster.
He kept the job for 50 years.

The ducks now live on the rooftop in a marble palace that cost the hotel $200,000 to build, with their own miniature replica of the hotel inside. The hotel’s French restaurant has refused to serve duck on the menu since 1981.

John Daly hit it close on 17 and picked a little fella out of the crowd. He calmly walked up and dropped the putt. May be the best thing you see today. #RegionsTradition

TRUTH !

[Mike Hoffmann @MikeHoffmann]

Luke Falk shared a Mike Leach story that stopped me cold:

Two kids. One rich. One poor.

Every training camp, Coach Leach told his team about these 2 kids.

The rich kid has two choices.

Get soft. Get entitled. Expect everything handed to him because he was handed more.

Or take the resources, the coaching, the opportunities, and compound them into something greater.

The poor kid has two choices too.

Say nobody gave him anything. Blame the world. Make his circumstances the reason he never became what he could have been.

Or outwork everyone in the room.

Luke said the locker room had both. Kids from wealth. Kids from nothing. Kids with every advantage. Kids who scraped for every inch.

Same choice for all of them.

Ownership or victimhood.
Fuel or excuse.

The rich kid can waste the head start or build on it.

The poor kid can drown in the deficit or weaponize it.

Greatness doesn't come from where you start.

It comes from which kid you choose to feed.
