Who are your favorite Texas Baseball players in Omaha?

I'll never forget watching the 2021 team in the summer between high school and college, and seeing the Hispanic Titanic launch this three-run missile for the win.

Training in the weight room isn’t just about “staying healthy.” It’s about giving yourself a chance to be elite for a long time.

Chapman is 38 years old and is throwing the ball better than ever. I get to the clubhouse around 5:30 AM every day during spring training… this dude is already drenched in sweat and 2/3 of the way through his workout before most people even walk in.

Physical specimen.

Oh… and then he leaves driving a literal tank… talk about Bad Ass

LeBron James says he isn't a billionaire. Forbes has him at $1.4 billion. He's right.

He went on Complex this week, held up a $405,040 Richard Mille, and said the watch was free. He said his bank account holds a couple thousand. He said his kids have all the money now.

Every line is accurate.

The Lakers paid him $48.7 million this season. His off-court income runs around $80 million annually from Nike, PepsiCo, Beats, and a dozen other brands. None of that sits in a checking account at age 41. It moves into investment vehicles the same week it clears.

The Richard Mille is the RM 65-01 LeBron edition, limited to 150 pieces globally. He didn't buy it. He co-designed it. Richard Mille gave him 001/150 because every paparazzi photo of his wrist sells the next 20 to oil magnates and tech founders. The watch is technically free in the same way the MacBook Tim Cook holds at a keynote is technically free. The brand pays the principal to wear the product.

The 2011 Fenway Sports Group deal is the textbook version of the trade. LeBron got Liverpool FC equity for marketing services, zero cash out of pocket. Liverpool was valued around $300 million at the time. The club sits above $5 billion today. He converted that stake into a broader FSG position in 2021, which now also includes the Red Sox and Pittsburgh Penguins. FSG itself runs north of $12 billion. He paid nothing for any of it.

SpringHill is the bigger one. RedBird Capital led a 2021 round at a $725 million valuation, with Nike and FSG also putting capital in. LeBron remained the largest single shareholder. The company just merged with Fulwell 73, which extends the slate without diluting his control. None of that equity is liquid. It compounds inside a holding structure that does not show up on a bank statement.

Now the kids. "They got all the money now. They take care of dad." Read that as an estate plan said out loud. Move appreciating assets into trusts in your heirs' names while the assets are still small. Pay gift tax on the original valuation. The S&P doubles, the trust doubles, the IRS already saw its slice. The Walton family ran this on Walmart in the 1980s. The Mars family ran it on candy.

The Complex headline is "LeBron reveals he's not a billionaire."

$1.4 billion is the entity. Couple thousand is the man.

There’s a reason Paul Skenes resonates with so many people.

Baseball fans respect the talent.
Americans respect the patriotism.
Service members respect the path he almost took.

Originally, America was getting a soldier.
Instead, it got an ace. 🫡 🇺🇸

Texans, I’m Doc Pete Chambers.

I’m not a career politician – I’m a Green Beret, a warrior diplomat, and a physician who’s seen what bad government does to real people.

Greg Abbott is running a $100‑million campaign funded by lobbyists and corporate insiders. I’m running a lean, people‑powered campaign funded by Texans who are tired of paying for all that influence.

If a man can’t run his own campaign on a responsible budget, why would you trust him with a $300‑billion state budget?

I will fight to abolish property taxes, truly secure our border, protect our energy and water, and end corporate control of Austin.

More importantly, in these exigent times, I will swiftly round up the bad actors who are in this State after failed federal and state border policies.

If you want more of the same, you already know who to vote for.

If you want a governor who pinches pennies like you do at the kitchen table,

I’m Doc Pete Chambers, and I’m asking for your vote.

The way travel baseball is run nowadays has hurt High School Baseball. Some will understand this others won’t. But players don’t play the game like they did 10 years ago.
