Do you Remember October 31, 2001. Lee Greenwood Sang "God Bless The U.S.A" before game 4 of the 2001 World Series at Yankee Stadium. So beautiful and Chills were felt and Strength of America United We Stood, Proudly!
Really Sickening to think Mamdani is The Mayor in NYC after What happened on 9-11.
Meanwhile we are surrounded by people that don’t Respect or love Our Great Country!
God Bless The USA. 🇺🇸

Go to ANY state in the U.S., and you're going to hear people that are critical of their HS state organization. MSHSAA is no different, and it's certainly far from perfect. But oversight from the governor and a committee is...weird. And I don't think solves anything.

[John Hough @JohnHough__]

Whatever aisle you fall on politically and how you feel about MSHSAA, we can’t let politicians takeover high school sports in our state. More harm than good would most likely come of Senate Bill 863 and frankly, Missouri has much better things to focus on than HS sports.

@A_RogBB Unbelievable!

[Tim Thompson @TT4mubu]

@obannonman @MSHSAAOrg @mshsaa MSHSAA does not make the rules .. they enforce what the schools vote as rules.. this should be brought up by your coach to the basketball advisory committee or your athletic director if they want change

Claudia would be a great First Lady..

[Annelise Hanshaw @AnneliseHanshaw]

A sweet moment from the Kehoe watch party last night: @MikeLKehoe's appreciation for his wife @ClaudiaLKehoe
"Will she make a great first lady or what?!" he said in his victory speech, to applause from the crowd and a tearful smile from Claudia.

[Tim Thompson @TT4mubu]

Mike Kehoe has my vote!

[Casey Adrian @CaseyHoggAdrian]

@DuchesneHS Congratulations Paul!

[Tim Thompson @TT4mubu]

This should be used by every coach!

[Kirk Herbstreit @KirkHerbstreit]

EVERY coach in EVERY college sport should listen to this approach. It’s not an accident Coach Hurley has created a consistent winning culture!

[Tim Thompson @TT4mubu]

Good stuff!This applies to all leadership not just coaching!

[Jamy Bechler @jamybechler]

University of Louisiana baseball coach Matt Deggs on advice he'd give young coaches.

This is a good listen no matter what sport you coach.

Great edition to Eldon! Look at this new indoor facility! I’ve never seen anything like it for a local school district. Eldon is using it for about every sport and about all ages. @EldonMustang AD Steve Henderson gave me the tour the other night. Incredibly impressive!

The Carolina Way, By HOF Coach - Dean Smith.

Legend.

When he passed, Coach Smith left $200 for each of his former players for dinner.

Here are 10 LIFE and COACHING Lessons from Coach Dean Smith.

1. Stay Humble - Stay Hungry
"A lion never roars after a kill."

2. What's Done is Done
"What to do with a mistake. Recognize it, Admit it, Learn from it, Forget it."

3. Give Credit Where Credit is Due
"I do believe in praising that which deserves to be praised."

4. You Have Got to Care to Lead
"The most important thing in good leadership is truly caring. The best leaders in any profession care about the people they lead, and the people who are being led know when the caring is genuine or when it is fake or not there at all."

5. Act With Honor and Integrity
"Good people are happy when something good happens to someone else."

6. At the End of the Day, it's Just a Game.
"If you make every game a life and death proposition, you are going to have problems. For one thing, you'll be dead a lot."

7. Surround Yourself With Winners
"I would never recruit a kid who yells at his teammates, disrespects his high school coach, or scores 33 points per game, and his team goes 10-10."

8. Value What's Most Important
"As soon as you try to describe a close friendship, it loses something."

9. Lead By Example
"A leader's job is to develop committed followers. Bad leaders destroy their follower's sense of commitment."

10. Never Underestimate Teamwork
"Play Hard. Play Smart. Play Together."
