This had real bite. I told my daughter to go to bed and she invoked the EO below to overrule me and watch until the end. Elections have consequences.

The Inkster Award, first given in 2020, was created to recognize the highest-ranked women's collegiate golfer across NCAA divisions who completes a full four years of eligibility rather than turning professional early. Megha Ganne is the 1st @StanfordWGolf player to win it!

[The Tennis Letter @TheTennisLetter]

Maja Chwalinska has changed her life at this year’s Roland Garros.

Her total career earnings before Roland Garros:

$864,030.

What she’s earned at this tournament:

$1,624,000.

Because the players don’t get the money til after the tournament, she was worried she wouldn’t be able to cover her costs for a hotel as she went further and further in the draw.

Polish company OSHEE had to step in and pay for the rest of her hotel fees.

It’s nothing short of heartwarming to see this happening to such a humble person who has overcome her share of struggles.

She overcame a battle with depression and stopped playing tennis entirely for a period to take care of her mental health.

She wasn’t sure if she’d ever come back to this sport.

Absolutely unreal story. 🥹

Chwalinska d. Diana Shnaider 7-6(4) 6-4

MAJA CHWALINSKA IS A GRAND SLAM FINALIST.

She is first qualifier in history to reach the Roland Garros final.

A statement that most people would’ve thought was unthinkable at the start of Roland Garros.

The world #114.

9th consecutive win since the start of qualifying.

18sets played, just 1 set dropped.

0 top 50 wins before this tournament.

Now she’s had 4 in a row & will leave Paris ranked AT WORST #21 in the world.

Move over Cinderella, there’s a new fairytale in town.

🇵🇱❤️

Sampling was once dismissed as lazy, but is now recognized for the artform it is. All art is derived from SOMETHING, the question is how someone chooses to reinterpret it.

For Day 4 of the #BlackMusicMonthChallenge, share you favorite sample flip (and the original song).

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

For 20 years, students at a strict Catholic school in Los Angeles feared their calculus teacher.

Then they discovered where he spent three nights every week.

His name was Jim O’Connor.

Former Navy veteran.
Math teacher.
Relentlessly demanding in the classroom.

At St. Francis High School, students knew him as the teacher who never accepted excuses.

Discipline mattered.
Effort mattered.
Precision mattered.

Nobody would have described him as soft.

Then one day in 1989, a friend asked Jim to donate blood at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.

He had Type O-negative blood — the universal donor type.

He gave once.

Then he kept coming back.

Over time, hospital staff noticed something else about him.

After donating blood, Jim would stay.

He learned about a small volunteer group that cared for infants who were sick, abandoned, withdrawing from drugs, or simply alone for long stretches of time.

Babies who needed to be held.

So Jim signed up.

Three days a week.
For 20 years.

After finishing work at school, he’d drive to the hospital, walk into the neonatal ward, pick up whichever baby needed comfort most, and quietly rock them to sleep.

He fed them.
Walked the halls with them late at night.
Sang softly to them.
Held them against his chest for hours.

Nurses said he could calm even the fussiest infants.

And he never told anyone at school.

Not coworkers.
Not students.
Nobody.

For two decades, the toughest teacher on campus spent his evenings comforting fragile newborns in dark hospital rooms.

Then a group of students organizing a blood drive visited the hospital.

The moment they mentioned St. Francis High School, hospital staff lit up.

“Do you know Jim O’Connor?”

The students were confused.

Then they saw the plaque listing the hospital’s top blood donors.

At the very top was their calculus teacher’s name.

Jim O’Connor had donated 72 gallons of blood.

And volunteered with infants for 20 years without ever mentioning it.

When reporters later asked why he kept it secret for so long, Jim looked genuinely confused by the question.

“I wasn’t hiding it,” he said.

“I just didn’t think it was anybody else’s business.”

That’s probably why the story still moves people.

Because real kindness rarely announces itself.

Sometimes the people who seem hardest on the outside are carrying the softest hearts in complete silence.

And sometimes the most extraordinary things a person does are the things they never felt the need to tell anyone about.

On this day in 1967, Jimi Hendrix performed a cover of “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” at London’s Saville Theatre just days after its release, with Paul McCartney and George Harrison in the audience.

[NBA Courtside @NBA__Courtside]

Jay Willams says Jalen Brunson is the antithesis of what fanbases think about the NBA right now:

“He’s the antithesis. Well, guys are overpaid, he’s not overpaid. You think about other things teams are tanking, they didn’t tank they built it the right way, they built the right culture around that. Load management, when is he load managing? “Oh I hurt my pinky toe I can’t play.” This dude hurts his knee, he hurts his ankle, he comes back in and he closes a game down the stretch. You tell me this guy at 6’1, 6’2 isn’t the most likable player in the NBA right now, how do you root against a guy like that.”
