One key thing Coach West is saying is "compete"
For me its definitely a red flag if a skill kid isn't running track, it tells me a lot about your mentality....even if you play baseball you can still compete in track... #txhsfb

@Coach_SG Do you do a new QR code everyday or same one?

[Brian Etchison Jr @Coach_Etch]

@Coach_SG Can you share what it ended up looking like on your end?

@CodyC64 Instead of paying game buyouts make things right with Coach Leach’s family and pay them whey he’s rightfully owed.

[Calvin Applebottom II @_MaroonKoolAid]

Texas Tech is willing pay millions of dollars in buy outs in order to play Texas week 1 but isn’t willing to pay Mike Leach’s family millions of dollars that they owed him https://t.co/yvNYNFBliu

@entreprattorney @mhp_guy They’re directly voting on it. not sure what the issue is. You could choose not to. I’ve coached and taught in Texas and in another state. Texas residents have decided that this important to them. They also are a factor in increasing property values which benefits the homeowner

I talked a dad who told me he spent $10k a year on travel baseball between tourneys, travel, and gear for his son. He got a partial scholarship to D-2 school. If he had put the $10k in a mutual fund each year, he would have had about $190,000. The scholarship was $5k a year.

@ClayTravis @JeffBezos That’s an incredible idea. What an excellent book and story. Visuals would be insane.

[Jennifer A. Frey @jennfrey]

Insanity. We've killed youth sports.

@Hudl_Tucker @Coach__Phillips @MissouriScoop @Hudl Not trying to be devils advocate, but if you don’t have a full schedule where the whole ecosystem is Hudl, you’re still owning and hauling sideline and end zone equipment.

@CoachGiff702 @CoachMcNallyOL If on slide side and no immediate threat i teach my guys to toe set (pick up your inside toe and put it down). Hand help, squeeze air out of the gap and keep eyes in your gap.

[Brian Etchison Jr @Coach_Etch]

@CoachGiff702 @CoachMcNallyOL In other words, if center has A gap but guard to man side has a shade, center hand helps a with eyes in A gap?

[The Biblical Man @Biblicalman]

Joseph of Arimathea pulled a corpse off a cross with his bare hands.

Blood under his fingernails. The weight of a dead man sagging into his arms.

He wrapped God in linen, pressed the fabric into wounds that were still wet.

Nicodemus brought seventy-five pounds of burial spice. A king's funeral for a man the world just murdered.

They carried Him into a hole in the rock and rolled the stone shut.

And everything you've ever done went in with Him.
Every night you can't sleep because of what you did. Every morning, you can't look in the mirror. The thing you did to her. The thing you did to them. The
lie you've been carrying so long it feels like bone.

The version of you that drinks alone and pretends tomorrow will be different.

That man was buried with Christ.

Stone sealed. Done.
Not managed. Not in therapy. Not on a payment plan with God where you slowly earn your way back. Buried. In a tomb. Under rock. Gone.
Three days of silence. Three days of a cold body in the dark.

Then the stone moved.
And when He walked out, the grave clothes were folded on the slab. He didn't stumble out tangled in death. He left it sitting there like a man who's done
with the clothes he used to wear.
Lazarus needed someone to unwrap him. Death still clung to him even after he was breathing.
Jesus folded His own burial linen and walked out clean.

That's the difference between religion and resurrection. Religion unwraps you slowly. Asks you to manage your sin. Attend the class. Read the book. Try harder next week.
Resurrection says the man who walked into that tomb is dead. The man who walked out doesn't know him.
You're not fixing the old you. The old you is in a sealed tomb in Jerusalem, and he's not coming back.
The man reading this, the one who thinks he's too far gone, you're not too far. You're already buried. The funeral happened two thousand years
ago.
Now get up. The stone's already moved. The linen's already folded.

Walk out.

So I watched "The Passion of the Christ" last night. And I am on my back deck tonight thinking.

Think about this.

In the movie, they have beaten him to near death and when they first take him to his cross, Jesus clings to it, and the thief chastised him for embracing his own cross. Mocking him for doing so.

Then Christ gave all he had to carry that cross which weighed as much as him.. They beat him while he did. It came to the point that his physical body couldn't carry it any longer, so a man was ordered to carry it with him. Yet Christ still clung to the cross.

Do you know why?

Because he knew at the other end of that short journey was OUR freedom. Not his.... OURS..... with every single step, with every drop of blood, with every single tear, he knew he was one moment closer to being at the right hand of the Father and his mission complete to free us all.

The man embraced the cross. Begged God to forgive the men nailing him to it. Begged God to forgive those that had beaten him with whips and canes and hammered a crown of thorns on his head.

He embraced it all.... for US......

And now, when times get hard and life gets even slightly uncomfortable, we claim that "God isn't listening and won't take my burden" as if we even know what a real burden is...

How many times would we cling to the proverbial cross for another and suffer as he did to free them from the pain? Would we ever do it at all? Maybe for our own child? Maybe?

As you lay down tonight, pray a prayer of thanks. Not for the normal things. Not tonight. Tonight, pray a special prayer of thanks that he held on to that cross and carried it as far as his mortal body would allow... because that took more dedication than any of us could give for anyone.

By the time you wake up in the morning, he will have risen, 2000 years ago. He will have beat death. 2000 years ago, all the sin you and I will ever commit was paid for because he clung to that cross like it was a lifeline.... not for him... But for you and me.
