@Jaredsla I'd honestly put this above 2012 Stanford and 2012 USC as the greatest goal-line stand in recent program history, considering the opponent and the stakes.

I would also like to address fathers and grandfathers. Young people need to see that you pray, receive the sacraments, treat your wives with respect, ask for forgiveness and live with integrity, even when doing so requires sacrifice. Children learn a great deal by seeing that their father can kneel before God without feeling that he is any less of a man for doing it.

STATEMENT FROM JACK CAMPBELL

My family and I want to sincerely thank everyone for the overwhelming amount of love, prayers, and support we’ve received over the past few days. It means more to us than words can express.

I’m incredibly encouraged by the progress I’ve made in such a short period of time. I have full movement in my lower body, and I’m continuing to make progress with movement in my upper body. I know there’s still work ahead, but I remain very optimistic. I’m taking things one day at a time, staying positive, and focusing on getting better.

My faith in God has never been stronger. I know He has a plan for me, and I trust in that plan. I know there may be challenges ahead, but with my faith, my family, and so many people in my corner, I know we’ll get through this.

I especially want to thank the athletic trainers and medical personnel who responded and cared for me on the field. I know those were difficult moments, and I’m incredibly grateful for the professionalism, compassion, and care you showed me. The way you handled everything and looked after me when I needed it most is something I’ll never forget. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

I also can’t say enough about the incredible care I’ve received from the medical team at Henry Ford Hospital and the Detroit Lions medical staff. They’ve been amazing to me and my family throughout this process, and I’m truly grateful for everything they’ve done.

To my teammates, coaches, and everyone in the Lions organization, I want you to know how much I love and appreciate you. This team is a family to me, and the way everyone has been there for me means everything. I’m proud to be a Detroit Lion and couldn’t ask to be surrounded by a better group of people.

One thing I’ve learned about Detroit is that this city is built on toughness, resilience, and grit. That’s exactly how I’m going to approach this challenge.

Please continue to keep me and my family in your prayers. We feel the love, and I can’t thank everyone enough.

God is good. My faith is strong.

Jack Campbell

When you read things like this, you realize how grievously and how often we lose sight of the most basic realities of the Faith.

[Fr. Mike Palmer, CSC @FrMikeCSC]

Please pray for my brother priest.

[mabs @mabowes402]

Please pray for our pastor, Fr. Tim MacDonald, who found out he has stage 4 melanoma with a cancerous tumor in his skull causing mobility problems. The tumor is bleeding and growing. He needs prayers desperately, as does our whole parish. This young man has been a blessing to us.

@Ring__The_Bell It would've been one thing if she admitted "I don't understand this belief" (fair, it's a tough one), but her comment was literally "No devout Catholic -- including Flannery O'Connor -- *actually believes* the wafer is anything other than a wafer." Just bizarre projection.

[Fr. Mike Palmer, CSC @FrMikeCSC]

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them.

May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

[Fr. Mike Palmer, CSC @FrMikeCSC]

@JoyceCarolOates Actually, devout Catholics (including O'Connor) do in fact seriously believe that "the wafer isn't just a wafer," since it's what the Church teaches. It's insulting to FOC that you flippantly call her deep faith "contrarian" -- please read what she said. https://t.co/pb3RxqgejI
