The Rodgewood @Maroon_Sports formula for winning 40 straight #NJFlagFootball games:
🏈 Great QB play
🏈 Relentless defense
🏈 Upholding tradition

And if you have a player who encapsulates all 3, you might be on the verge of a 4th straight 🏆…

✅ The #Mets can hit grand slams.
✅ The #Yankees can score 13 runs in an inning.
✅ I can change the ignition lock cylinder on a late-model Volkswagen.

Knicks-Spurs, just like in 1999.

Let's go crazy!!

This was three days ago. Now, he's gone.

Check on your friends. All of them. As many as you can. People put on a brave face but suffer silently.

The bravest thing you can do is ask for help. Let's all just be there for one another.

Claude Lemieux's brought the Stanley Cup to New Jersey in 1995. He came back in 2000 to win it again. It's entirely possible that NHL hockey doesn't stay in New Jersey without Claude.
A spot in the Ring of Honor could have been in the future. Sadly, it will be posthumous now.
