October 11th, 1993 - The Phillies win a wild game 5 in Atlanta. Incredible defensive plays, a Curt Schilling near-complete game, a Mitch Williams blown save, a 10th-inning go-ahead home run from Lenny Dykstra, and Larry Anderson coming in for the save.
"A particularly notable out-of-towner, Ty Cobb, paid “Shoeless Joe” a visit at his liquor store in West Greenville.
Joe Jackson gave his old friend a glance, but said not a word as he pretended to wipe down an already clean counter.
After picking out a bottle of whiskey, an incredulous Cobb spoke up.
“Don’t you know me, Joe?” he asked.
61 year old Jackson replied, “Sure, I know you, Ty, but I wasn’t sure you wanted to know me. A lot of them don’t.”
As the pair reminisced about old times, Cobb declared: “I’ll tell you how well I remember you. When I got the idea I was a good hitter, I’d stop and take a good look at you.
Then I knew I could stand some improvement.
I can still see those line drives whistling to the far precincts. Joe Jackson hit the ball harder than any man ever to play baseball.”
Ty Cobb
"Whenever a youth particularly needed money, my husband would suddenly remember that he could pay someone to sweep the floor of his nearby restaurant."
Katie Jackson, Joe`s wife.
In my HOF!!!
Marine Corps Colonel: "Captain Williams, I want to give you these orders, they relieve you from active duty in the Marine Corps Reserve and assign you to your home.
Ted, I understand that your future address is Fenway Park, is that correct?".
Ted Williams: "Well, as of now, that's where I'm scheduled to go, Colonel. I plan on being up there tomorrow, and needless to say I'm anxious to see if I can still hit.
With the young club the Red Sox have, if I can swing a bat at all, maybe I can help the team.
I certainly hope so."
Ted Williams
Williams checks out with guard at Marine Barracks in Washington D.C. after being released from active duty!
After returning from missing three seasons for military service, in which Ted Williams won three medals of valor, Williams hit a home run on the day he returned.
For the season Williams hit .342/.497/.667 with 38 home runs.
Williams led the league in runs, walks, total bases, OBP, SLG, and OPS and won the MVP.
A quiet, profound moment from Novak Djokovic on Piers Morgan Uncensored that stops you in your tracks.
Piers asked the question almost no athlete ever wants to face:
“When you retire one day… how would you like to be remembered?”
Djokovic paused, looked away for a second, then calmly told the story of the first funeral he ever attended: his “tennis father” who passed away just over a month ago.
He expected speeches about trophies and titles.
Instead, every single person spoke only about the human being — how he touched hearts, how he changed lives, how he made people feel seen.
In that moment, Djokovic realized what truly lasts.
His answer was measured, thoughtful, and crystal clear:
“I’m incredibly proud of the 24 Slams, the records, everything I’ve fought my entire life for.
But when I’m gone, I don’t want the trophies on my tombstone.
I want it to say:
Here lies Novak Djokovic
The man who touched people’s hearts.”
He smiled softly at Piers and added:
“You just helped me put that into words.”
No drama. No tears. Just pure, powerful clarity from a man who has spent decades chasing greatness… and suddenly saw what actually matters most.
No drama. No tears. Just pure, powerful clarity from a man who has spent decades chasing greatness… and suddenly saw what actually matters most.
Watch the 3:37 clip. It’s calm on the surface and seismic underneath.
Then ask yourself the same question Novak just answered so beautifully:
When your time comes… how do YOU want to be remembered?
Saquon Barkley on James Franklin getting the VT job: "Happy for him. The way I look at it is James Franklin's a guy who, I had offers — probably had like three or four offers — but I wasn't really a big recruit. Him, alongside (Sean Spencer and Charles Huff) believed in me and gave me an opportunity. And I know for sure that I'm not sitting here right now in front of you guys answering these questions iff it wasn't for James Franklin. Excited for him and his family, wish him nothing but success, But at the same time, anytime he plays Penn State, I gotta go with Penn State."

"The Miracle at the Meadowlands"
Ahead by five with under 30 seconds remaining, the #Giants inexplicably call a running play during which quarterback Joe Pisarcik makes a 360° pirouette pivot and fumbles.
#Eagles corner Herman Edwards scoops up the loose ball and returns it for a touchdown to win in miraculous fashion at Giants Stadium, 19-17.
A #Philadelphia loss would've seriously damaged any playoff aspirations they may have had.
🚨 JUST IN - SEN. JOHN FETTERMAN (D-PA): "I am NOT just representing Democrats...I refuse to call members of the other team fascists or Nazis. Because if you do, that implies the people that vote for them must be too. That's not true. I know and love MANY people who voted for the president. They aren't Nazis."
"I refuse to engage in those things."
"We really have to find a way forward. And after the tragedy with Charlie Kirk, people deserve to grieve...I'm not gonna try to make points...a father was shot in public. Now, let's just let people realize the tragedy and grieve."
"Pennsylvania - that's where the president was also shot. I was 30 miles away. Thank God he was OK. Imagine where our nation would be if that went in the same way!"
He shouldn't be the outlier in the Democrat Party; he should be the norm.
“It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops. Today, November 2, a Sunday of rain and broken branches and leaf-clogged drains and slick streets, it stopped, and summer was gone.”
- A. Bartlett Giamatti (with a small change from October to November)
An absolutely ridiculous ruling by Replay to determine this is not a targeting foul. He literally launches and makes forcible contact to the head/neck area of a defenseless receiver.
It would be Level 2 DQ in a 2-tier model.
Joe Rogan has a lot of influence. His podcast averages around 11 million listeners per episode—that’s an enormous platform. Recently, Joe has been opening up about his growing faith and even attending church.
In his latest podcast, he said he’s “narrowed it down to Jesus” and is now trying to discover who Jesus really is. That’s the heart of the matter!
In this short 7-minute clip, I share my response, explaining the Gospel message and leading a simple prayer for anyone who wants to personally ask Christ into their life.
If you’ve ever had questions about faith—or know someone who’s searching for God—watch this and share it with a friend.
