this tribute to Catherine O'Hara at the Emmys was soooo sweet wow. and the camera cuts to Martin Short and Steve Martin crying...I'm not okay. her on-screen children Macaulay Culkin, Annie Murphy, and Dan Levy spoke so highly of her
Macaulay: "She was encouraging. She was warm. She was funny. But the word that I think of is 'momma.' She was my mom. She was our mom. And by extension, she was all of our mom. She may have forgotten me...twice! But we will always remember her."
Not just special teams.
This is legitimately one of the greatest football plays I’ve ever seen.
It doesn’t get much better than that right there. Every coach in America will be showing this rep to their team this week.
Barry Melrose - for all the flash and fun you saw, which was so great and so real, is beloved at our place for a different reason.
It’s tempting to call someone like him “The man”. But, more than that, Barry was a man’s man. Someone who carried himself in a manner worthy of sincere admiration because of his foundation.
Treat people with respect and decency and earn it from everyone you meet. Work your ass off without complaint because it’s required to succeed. Which he did. Don’t shrink in the face of adversity but take it head on, which he did until the end.
Beneath the mullet and suits and flash was a kid from a farm in Saskatchewan who carried it with him everywhere. A man. In the very best sense of the word. He was so damn pure and so damn loved.
We’re so lucky this man came our way.
Barry was my best friend at ESPN. A big brother figure of rock solid values. I am shook to my core. Barry gave his life to hockey and some of his ESPN family, like me, learned of his shocking death today while at a hockey rink in Las Vegas preparing for the upcoming season. Chilling and fitting--the rink was Barry's home. A more beloved ESPN institution there has not been. We love you, Barry. Forever.
One more note: You won’t find a single Giants’ player say anything but great things about Darius Slayton — the player and person.
He represents everything a New York Giant is supposed to be.
@meshgelman I replied last night on the previous post, here’s round 2... I’m being told I need to consolidate to fit the aesthetic of wife’s new kitchen 😂😂
The Predators have traded Luke Evangelista to the New Jersey Devils in exchange for a 1st and 2nd round round pick in 2028.
Absolute bombshell of a trade. I did not see this coming.
@meshgelman If you have any of the other 25 still remaining - I think that’s the perfect house warming gift when my wife and I move into our new home in weeks
