It is with immeasurable sadness that we announce the passing of Coach Ted Wolford.
Teddy was a coach, a mentor, a husband, a friend, and will always be- a legend.
Please keep his wife Vickie, all of his siblings, and the 3132 family in your thoughts and prayers.

Fun facts to date the @OHSAASports boys D1 lax breakdown of games. Note that only 2 of the “moderate games” took place between teams seeded within the top 8 & bottom 8 seeds. That was a 8/9 & 7/10 game.
Argument could be made for top 6 in & 2 play in games would be dandy.
Physician-owned hospitals are “conflicts of interest.”
Health systems employing every primary care doctor in a zip code is “integrated care.”
Amazing branding department.
If you want more doctors doing house calls, not selling their practices and going to work for the big HC conglomerates, make public med school free.
A little gov intervention, so that rather than having 100s of thousands in debt guiding their decisions , they can do primary care or be a family physician and spend as much time with patients as they want.
They can take cash. They can take chickens.
If you had 250k after almost a decade of school, do you think that would impact your decisions ?
And if you own a big HC conglomerate, does knowing they are drowning in debt impact your decision and how you compete and contract with them ?
Fuck yeah it does.
You pressure them till they have to sell out to you in an acquihire. They can’t afford to survive on their own and every huge HC company takes advantage of them
About 32k students enter med school and DO school a year. 75k for a grant each. Thats 2.4b annually for each class.
That’s it.
You want better healthcare for everyone. That’s the place to start.
This is a catastrophe.
You had a profession that was proud of their work. They would build independent practices, establish themselves in their communities, and work well into their twilight years.
Now we are a bunch of w2 employees looking for the exit.
Milton Friedman on why medical care costs so much in the US:
“Most payments for medicine are third-party payments. The insurance company pays. The government pays.”
“As a result, everybody is spending everybody else’s money. And nobody spends somebody else’s money as carefully as he spends his own.”
Jeff Bezos was born in Alberquerque to a 17 year old high school mom who divorced his alcoholic dad before Jeff was 2. He worked at McDonald's before his grades earned his way into Princeton. He started Amazon in a garage with a 245k investment from his parents.
That's reality.
@foxnewspolitics To people who ask why there aren’t more arrests or what’s happening with the fraud in Minnesota....
Minnesota is protecting the fraudsters because they are IN ON the fraud.
“The fact that college campuses, once the cornerstone of free expression and open debate, are now among the most intellectually intolerant spaces in America should concern us deeply.”
- Ben Sasse
Most insurers aren’t insurers. They are holding companies that arbitrage capitated systems and self insured employers, looking for weaknesses and lack of contract enforcement in state, federal and commercial organizations
Without this global town square for free speech, a lot of important things never would’ve seen daylight.
Real-time information governments tried to bury. Scientific debate that was actively censored. Voices that would’ve stayed silenced forever.
Respect to @elonmusk for being the man in the arena when it actually counted. 🫡🙏
Agree with Jamie Dimon that people vote with their feet. We’ll see many CEO’s and founders divest their NYC real estate and start staying in hotel suites when in town. All so that @NYCMayor can fund Learing Centers and “free” child care. Does he not realize how mobile the workforce and especially his targeted tax bracket is?
