This post didn’t age well at all. Hey @tmobile how about a statement or update? @Verizon your turn for a Golden response!

[T-Mobile @TMobile]

T-Mobile’s network is keeping our customers connected, and we’ve confirmed that our network is operating normally and as expected. However due to Verizon’s reported outage, our customers may not be able to reach someone with Verizon service at this time.

See what’s new with VCF 9 and the innovation that it is bringing to the Datacenter. https://t.co/lVbLuqcfjO

Proud of @graciebeane2025 for the success she had this year with Basketball and Track and Field.

NASCAR was so much better when the main sponsors were cigarette and beer companies.

[Dale Beane @dbeane4]

@BballCoachMac Or a travel ball organization tells you to pick them or your other sport. Find an organization that will welcome an athlete and work with them to be a better athlete not be restricted to a single sport.

[Tom Crean @TomCrean]

Just Coach the Team !

No drama. No division. No doubts.

Have a contagious energy

Remind them of what makes them important and impactful

Leave every timeout or huddle with BELIEF

Don’t fight the referees. Fight giving into
fatigue and frustration

Lead with JOY

Big shout out to the parents whose kids don’t get much playing time or spend most of the game on the bench. You still come to every game, cheer for the team, and support every player, even when your own child might not get any minutes. You’re teaching your kids what it means to show up, be part of a team, and put 'we' before 'me.' It takes real dedication and selflessness to be there all the time, and your example is helping your kids become strong and caring people. Thanks for showing what true team spirit looks like! Especially the parents from RMHS!

[William Payne @TweetsbyCoachP]

IF it were REALLY about the kids, you’d see:

HS coaches working w/ travel coaches

Parents and Teachers working together

And all of them having the KIDS best interests ahead of their own.

But we all know, it’s really rarely about the kids.

Female athletes ages 14–18 are 4–6x more likely to tear an ACL than male athletes.

The earlier they learn to move well and build confidence in the weight room, the more that risk drops.

[Dale Beane @dbeane4]

Will Duke fans complain about the refs today? A 21-0 free throw advantage is crazy.

[Alan Stein, Jr. @AlanSteinJr]

Tough conversations don’t get easier with time.
They get heavier.

What you avoid today doesn’t disappear—it compounds. Assumptions grow. Resentment builds. Small issues turn into fractures.

The discomfort you’re trying to dodge now will cost you far more later.

Strong leaders, teammates, and partners don’t wait for the perfect moment. They choose the right one—early, honest, and respectful.

Avoiding tough conversations doesn’t protect relationships.
It weakens them.

If you want strong relationships, you have to be willing to have strong conversations—before silence does the talking for you.

[Jeff Janssen @janssenleader]

If you fail to hold your teammates accountable during practices,

YOUR COMPETITORS WILL HOLD YOU ACCOUNTABLE ON GAME DAY.

Got a child that wants to play at the next level. Please help them understand the importance of Steph’s message here. It isn’t always about the stat line.

[Hoop Herald @TheHoopHerald]

Steph Curry with a great message here about affecting the game, even when you don’t stat

“If it’s not your night stat wise, whether you play two, 10, 20 minutes, come with the right energy.”

A winner is a winner, no matter how many minutes they play

[Jeff Janssen @janssenleader]

“If you’re someone who shows up, does your job, works hard, knows what to do, is accountable, and communicates, I’ll listen to you and do whatever we can to help you.
If you’re somebody that doesn’t do those things, we don’t want you." Mike Vrable

[Dale Beane @dbeane4]

Great message for any parent of an athlete or any child.

[Allyson Schwab @allysonschwab]

I’ve saved this clip from 2024.

Maybe you’re a parent that needs to hear it now and maybe you’re a parent that needs to bookmark it for later to come back to. Either way if you have watched your child sacrifice the norms to not be of the norm and watched them fall short you can relate.

For those that aren’t at this level yet- remember every match/game/point is big to them in moment and I think we minimize that thinking we are helping them when in reality we are protecting our own self from the hurt we feel when our child is hurting.

Struggle and failure are life’s biggest teaching tools. They are also some of the most painful to go through, but more so to watch someone you love go through. I hope this helps some parents- now or in the future or even those parents of kids at the younger ages. Hopefully you focus on building healthy relationships with your kids over their win loss record. Hopefully you are praising them not only in their successes, but also in their failures of trying so they continue to just that- try.

[Dale Beane @dbeane4]

Great words to live by.

[Wesley Pritchett @wpritchett34]

This is Pure Gold. I had the pleasure of spending time with Coach Holtz. I wanted to hear him explain his Three Rules for Life! 1) Do what’s right - trust. 2) Do everything to the best of your ability- commitment. 3) Show people you care - love. It’s pretty simple. He goes on to highlight why the transfer portal is ruining college football. The kids are losing out on the life lessons learned- how to persevere, how to be committed to a program and a group of people. You miss out on the bonds you create over 4 years. If you leave, you still have the problem, you are changing the address. These are words to live by.

[Greg Berge @GregBerge]

Adversity is guaranteed.

How do you regulate your emotions when it happens?

Your ability to “get out of the bucket” quickly ultimately determines your success.

This is a great tool to use with athletes.

[Dale Beane @dbeane4]

So true. Teach your children this while they are also learning their sport!
