I know @jmpaquette is a lightning rod around here on HRT. Let’s face it, she could turn into Tom Durkin and would still get shit on by many.
I’m not saying she’s everyone’s cup of tea (but I know there are some popular guys that I don’t care for), I’m not even saying you have to like her, but damn it, you better give her some respect. Show me another announcer this weekend that’s had to call over 250 horses through 26 races. She’s been on point both days and despite all the hate, always carries herself like the consummate professional.
So I’m gonna go out and give her the flowers she deserves cause nobody else will.
Great job today Jess, you nailed it.
Sadio Mane, a Senegalese soccer star, earns approximately $10.2 million annually. He gave the world a rude awakenng after some fans were flabbergasted when they saw him carrying a cracked iPhone 11. His response was awesome:
"Why would I want ten Ferraris, 20 diamond watches, and two jet planes? I starved, I worked in the fields, played brefoot, and I didn't go to school. Now I can help people. I prefer to build schools and give poor people food or clothing. I have built schools and a stadium, provide clothes, shoes, and food for people in extreme poverty. In addition, I give 70 euros per month to all people from a very poor Senegalese region in order to contribute to their family economy. I do not need to display luxury cars, luxury homes, trips, and even planes. I prefer that my people receive some of what life has given me.
I searched the crowd for my father, knowing his thoughts were with my mother too. I wanted him to know this gold medal belonged to all of us. As we look ahead to the next Olympics, I'm reminded that behind every athlete is a family whose love & sacrifices make the dream possible.
8 years ago, my Dad was diagnosed with Stage 3 Colon cancer and last night he gave me the surprise of a lifetime that will go down as one of my most cherished memories on #HockeyFightsCancer night 💜
To those battling cancer, You are not alone. To those who know someone in a battle, reach out to them as they embark on life’s hardest fight; a text, a call, or a letter can make the biggest difference, even though it may seem small. My Dad is living proof that love, positivity, and support give us all the best chance to eradicate cancer.
Thank you to the entire @utahmammoth organization and the @NHL for making this possible, it’s a moment that we as a family will never forget.
There’s no one in this world I’m more proud of than my Dad, as he continues to be a beacon of hope that one day we can all say, “Hockey Beats Cancer” 💜
