At the level these kids are at in the LLWS….throwing 70+ mph from 46 feet, you cannot give these pitchers 3 inches off each corner. You just can’t. A strike is a strike. This isn’t a rec game.
I aint never told noone but when we evacced from afghanistan I put all the gym machines in the base at the max so if they came through theyd be like damn these niggas strong as hell I served my country man
People having the IQ of a stale biscuit is a public health crisis. This person should not be able to drive a car on a public road with other humans. It’s like giving a toddler a gun and hoping nothing bad happens.
LSU football coaches sons produced two memorable plays for U-High against St. Charles Catholic:
QB Knox Kiffin (son of LSU head coach Lane Kiffin) connects with Kevin Smith, Jr. (son of LSU RB's coach Kevin Smith) for a 40-yard TD
Later in the scrimmage, Kiffin scrambles and finds Smith, who takes a massive hit and still holds onto the ball
Have a day, David Gabriel Georges! 🤯
The consensus No. 1 RB in the country and Tennessee commit was a man possessed in No. 12 Baylor (TN)'s opening night win over No. 13 Brentwood Academy (TN). 💪🏿

Chief Petty Officer Kevin A. Houston, DEVGRU (SEAL Team 6) Gold Squadron, killed on August 6, 2011, when Extortion 17 was shot down in Afghanistan.
Houston ranked among the most tactically skilled operators Gold Squadron ever produced. He was instrumental in the deaths of senior al-Shabaab figures in Kismayo and Barawa and conducted continuous combat operations throughout Kunar, Paktika, and Ghazni provinces in Afghanistan.
On the night of November 26, 2008, his joint fire team came under intense enemy fire during a raid on a Taliban commander. When insurgents attempted to use a tunnel inside the compound to outflank the assault force, Houston spotted the danger and personally led the high risk clearance. Wounded inside the tunnel, he continued to lead, secured the unit’s flank, and helped break up a Taliban bombing cell that night. For his actions he was awarded the Silver Star.
Almost three years later he was among the 15 Gold Squadron operators killed in a single moment when Extortion 17 was brought down while acting as a quick reaction force to assist Rangers under fire.
That night remains the costliest day in Naval Special Warfare history, and Houston’s loss removed one of the squadron’s most seasoned and effective operators.

Ed O'Neill reveals the exact day Neil Armstrong walked on the moon, he was cut by the Steelers, got blackout drunk with strangers in a dive bar, and was pulled over half naked by police at 3 AM
"I went in the bar, it was like 2:00 in the afternoon and there were a couple of locals. I order a beer, they got the TV up high on the wall, and the news comes on showing Armstrong walking on the moon. That's when I got cut. And I'm thinking, 'Well, somebody had a good day.'"
"Then they went to sports, and of course it's Pittsburgh so they go, 'Linebacker Ed O'Neill released today from the Steelers,' and that's my picture. These guys in the bar look and they go, 'You're Ed O'Neill!' And they said, 'Your money's no good here.' Now they're all buying me drinks."
"I end up at 3:00 in the morning in some car with some girl with a state trooper pulling me over. I don't even know my name at this point. I think I had my shirt off, almost naked, and I'm driving."
"He looks at my driver's license and says, 'Did you get cut today from Pittsburgh?' I said, 'Yep.' He said, 'Miss, can you drive?' She said, 'Yeah, I'll take him.' And he let me go, because in Pittsburgh, they love them Steelers. Even if you got cut, you're still part of the team."
Rules the NBA had to change specifically because of Wilt Chamberlain’s dominance:
1. Offensive goaltending:
"He used to jump up, catch his teammates shots and dunk them."
2. In-bounds plays:
"Players are no longer allowed to throw a pass on the baseline over the backboard. Wilt used to jump up and dunk those, too."
3. Free throws:
"When fouled, players no longer are allowed to take a running start from behind the foul line. Wilt used to dunk his free throws in that fashion as if it were a long-jump competition."
4. Rebounding positions:
"In free-throw situations, the two inside rebounding positions were divided one to the offense, one to the defense. That was changed to both defensive positions because Wilt's coaches ordered his teammates to miss so Wilt could get the rebound and score two points instead of one."
5. Widened key:
"The key area was widened to 16 feet to keep Chamberlain away from the basket."
