Yeah, this should be a mistrial due to a conflict of interest. Jeff Metcalf, Judge Roach, and DA Greg Willis all know each other. Karmelo is innocent!

Public setting not trespassing ✅️
Was NOT the aggressor✅️
Knife was legal per Texas law✅️
Was attacked by two low IQ thugs✅️
Karmelo Anthony is 100% innocent

Times are certainly changing for the better. Here is the new indoor facility in Longview, Tx.

There will now be two indoor facilities in Texas that are owned by the city and not affiliated with a university.

@maxguwapo Thats honestly justified

🚨 TEXAS STATE RECORD, #4 ALL TIME COMBINED shot/discus behind guys like Ryan Crouser, mason Finley, Niklas Arrhenius…. Woah 👀

I only told a few people what I THOUGHT would happen this year back in September… now’s he’s getting closer and closer.. In my 10 years of coaching, 5 in the NCAA and now 6 in this space.. when you have throwers like this kid, GET OUT THE WAY! Haha simple as that. Offer Guidance, advice, a plan of action.. but let them walk their path. Momentum has coached some of the BEST ALL TIME the last 3 years but @cjthethrower is certainly in his own lane! Follow the journey and check out his YouTube!

Managing athletes during this time of year is really more so "less is more".

Thank you, Brother Rizza. This is the point everyone needs to grasp: every serious push for reparations has been met with brutal resistance. That backlash alone proves how threatening real accountability is—and why the issue has been suppressed and deflected for generations.

Even after 200 viewings, Heath Ledger’s performance in The Dark Knight still feels completely unreal.

Question

I still see a lot of “uncommitted” juniors and sophomores in track and field…..

Who’s signing sophomores and juniors in our sport?

[Booker G. Washington @BookerGWash]

She won’t be going away. She ran in an expected, long-shot US senate race because Texas Republicans had to cheat to eliminate her incumbent Congressional district. She’ll be on to something bigger.

The worst politicians in America are about to quote Martin Luther King Jr.

You can’t quote “I have a dream” on MLK Day then legislate against that dream every other day of the year.

😪 Struggling with your block starts?

This clip features Canadian sprinters Andre De Grasse and Akeem Haynes, and shows how two world-class athletes solve the start in different ways.

🔍 Taken from our course Stop Dragging Your Toes, Stu McMillan introduces two primary block-clearance “mailboxes”:

☑️ TYPE A – linear and volitional
☑️ TYPE B – torsional and reflexive

Athletes sit on a continuum between these styles. Understanding where yours fall is the key to coaching effective block clearance and early acceleration.

You’ll see how Akeem produces force through a more linear strategy, while Andre generates projection through torsion and elastic qualities. The implications for cueing, programming, and progression are significant.

💡 When you understand these distinctions, you stop guessing and start coaching with clarity.

If you want to develop real expertise on the sprint start, Stop Dragging Your Toes gives you the full framework: how to analyse movement, how to coach technical change, where the toe-drag idea came from, and how to set athletes up for efficient block clearance and early acceleration.
