Happy Birthday to my son @chrismpeters! Chris is a hockey player, hockey dad, hockey coach, and hockey journalist. And just an overall great guy! Enjoy your special day bud! Very proud of you!
On this day our military personnel and our Allies helped to secure freedom from tyranny! As always “All gave some, some gave all”! Thank you to our veterans and Allies! 🇺🇸
Six years ago today we lost my youngest brother and best friend. Great husband, dad, teacher, coach. Miss him every day! Love ya Bob, watch over us all. 🙏🏻
On this Memorial Day weekend please remember that “all gave some, but some gave all.” But a poppy in remembrance of those who fought for our freedom! Stay safe! #USA
This week is EMS WEEK honoring Paramedics, EMT’s, ER Nurses and Docs, and Aeromedical personnel! Thank you and well deserved salute to my Brothers and Sisters in EMS. Stay safe all! #EMS#FirstResponders
Very sad news. Once again I ask you to remember the men and women of the CFD as they deal with the loss of another member. The last few months have taken a toll on our 1st Responders.
Today is #InternationalFirefightersDay so say a prayer to St. Florian for your local Firefighters. And if you see a rig on the street, give them a wave of support and thanks! #StaySafe
Tonight once again the Chicago Police Department mourn one of their own and pray for another critically wounded. It takes a unique quality to be a 1st Responder. They need our support! Pray for them all! #BackTheBlue#CPD
The flag that Rick Monday rescued 50 years ago today is headed to Cooperstown!
OTD in 1976, Monday, a Cubs outfielder and veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, grabbed an American flag from two protesters who had run onto the field at Dodger Stadium and attempted to burn it.
Monday, the longtime Dodgers broadcaster who played 19 years in the Major Leagues, was a two-time All-Star and a World Series champion, has often been asked about the moment.
“If that’s all you’re ever remembered for, that’s not a bad thing at all,” Monday told MLB Network in 2016.
Monday still owns the flag and it will be on loan to the Baseball Hall of Fame this summer as part of America’s 250th birthday celebration. In addition, Monday will be honored on July 25 during induction weekend.
You know if you’re a hockey player who loves the game, it doesn’t matter where you’re from or at what level you’re playing, passion is everything! @yukimiura36 has it all! A gentleman and a great player! Best of luck Yuki!
The nuns I had in grammar school were tough but thank God I didn’t have this “nun!” I would have been either benched or in the penalty box in the coat room for a long time! 🙏🏻🥅🏒
