This story is beautifully written and a pleasure to read on a Sunday morning - but also a sad reminder of the inequity worsened by climate change. https://t.co/kz9nIc3Z5z via @nolanews

“When y’all came to visit last week, it’s like y’all gave me a vitamin C shot.”

Jackie Wallace’s words of joy…. when he called this morning to say he’s counting his blessings. #yououghttodoastoryaboutme

@JSODonoghue @ScottLSternberg It is a fascinating chapter of Louisiana sports history. Thank you @JSODonoghue

@VicVela1 So poignant for you to post this today, as Jackie has wrestles with more consequences of his addiction, his CTE, his selfish pride. We don’t give up, his spirit doesn’t give up, but the consequences are so painful to watch. His endless guilt. His endless quest for redemption.

@VicVela1 @COPublicRadio @CPRNews I sent the link to Jackie this morning…and to his family as well.

In 1990, New Orleans photojournalist @TedJacksonPhoto was taking pics of a homeless camp. A man says, “You ought to do a story about me.”

“Because I played in 3 Super Bowls.”

Back From Broken: “There’s gonna be times in this episode when you’ll think Jackie is all in the clear, just like Ted thought. But the unfortunate reality is addiction doesn’t let go of people easily.”
Take a listen. Your day will be blessed.
