IMS tribute:

[Denny Hamlin @dennyhamlin]

Absolutely cannot comprehend this news. We just need to think of his family during this time. We love you KB.

[Brandon Taylor @BrandonTaylor77]

I completely and selfishly hope this wasn’t the end, but thank you @ovi8. The @Capitals and the entire DMV are forever in your debt. Sheer gr8ness. @JohnWaltonPxP @JoeBpXp @MonSportsNet

[NHL @NHL]

John Carlson’s time with the Capitals has come to an end — but his place in their history books is permanent.

He leaves Washington as the all-time leading defenseman in:

🦅 Games played: 1,143
🦅 Goals: 166
🦅 Assists: 605
🦅 Points: 771 (a 297‑point lead)

[Washington Capitals @Capitals]

You gave 17 years to this franchise, but your impact will last forever. Thank you for representing with a professionalism and pride that extended well beyond the rink. We’ll be rooting for you in Anaheim.

Go, Johnny, Go!

@JerryBrewer @rmnb I never comment on stuff, but this is an absolutely disgraceful piece. What a shame. This moment is too big for you to handle. Hence a hit piece such as this one to divert attention back to you. I’m sorry I wasted my time reading. Shameful.

@zack_kelly Quack!

@KevinMyattWx And just south of Fincastle is the edge of the dry and moisture. Will still get a few spurts of snow, a glimmer of sun, and then another cloud. Cold and flurries in the air currently at my locations. Probably and inch to 1.5” at my Troutville location.

[Brandon Taylor @BrandonTaylor77]

@KevinMyattWx At midnight, stepped out to a coating on all surfaces including sidewalks and roads. 4.5 miles SW of Fincastle in Troutville. Currently 19 degrees.

@footballzebras Really curious on your thoughts on Scott Novak missing an on field playoff assignment for second consecutive years. He was an alternate for a wild card game but I felt like he’s been solid and deserving for an on field job.

[Brandon Taylor @BrandonTaylor77]

@rossiadam Well said, sir. The time for action is now. I’m an educator and live in Botetourt. We can’t ruin this state. There is just too much good here.

[Brandon Taylor @BrandonTaylor77]

@KevinMyattWx @WDBJ7Weather @WSLSWeather Sitting at exactly 2.5” and was a very swift change to all sleet now. 4.5 miles SW of Fincastle.

[Brandon Taylor @BrandonTaylor77]

@KevinMyattWx @WDBJ7Weather @WSLSWeather Snow coming down at a really good rate right now. 2.25” and now starting to pile up pretty quickly. 4.5 miles SW of Fincastle in Troutville.

[Brandon Taylor @BrandonTaylor77]

@KevinMyattWx @WDBJ7Weather Streets and driveways with a full, clean layer of snow here in Troutville.

@KevinMyattWx @WDBJ7Weather @jameysingleton First flurries trying to push over the mountain and hit the air in Troutville, VA. 4.5 miles SW of Fincastle.

[Tim Murtaugh @TimMurtaugh]

Spanberger didn’t run on this, and not a single Virginian knew they were voting for this.

[Brandon Taylor @BrandonTaylor77]

@jeff_gluck Thanks, Jeff. This man will forever be a hero and legend in my book - and for all the right reasons.

Greg Biffle's second act was as good if not better than the first.

Yes, he was a tremendous driver that won a bunch of races.

But the second act was Greg the humanitarian - the selfless guy that answered calls for help to a degree that should earn him sainthood.

Be like Greg.
