Let’s not let this Knicks historic comeback/win distract from the fact that that was a truly horrific dumb dumb half by the Spurs in every way. Just an all time moment too big for them.

[Dustin Wright @CoachWright333]

Winning and losing both matter. Winning teaches an athlete what is possible. Losing teaches them what is required. If adults remove the sting from losing too early, they also remove part of the lesson. If everything gets rewarded, then nothing gets measured.

If every kid is handed the same validation regardless of effort, growth, sacrifice, discipline, or result, then we should not act surprised when they struggle later when the competition stops being easy.

Sports are not supposed to protect athletes from truth. Sports are supposed to prepare them to handle it. This is the lesson we’re forgetting in youth sports, and it’s hurting our kids later in life. Build mental toughness now. The real world won’t hand out participation trophies.

If current cuts to the Federal Science Budget proposed by the White House are approved by Congress, that will far-and-away be the largest cut to science since the United States began funding it.

Republicans & Democrats alike know there’s no surer path to Making America Not-Great

37 years ago tonight, April 1, 1989, Corey Glover and Living Colour performed “Cult of Personality”(1988) on NBC’s Saturday Night Live. The song peaked at #13 on Billboard’s Hot 💯.

For some coaching at a 1A school is a stepping stone.

For @coachjgroves, it has been a way of life.

This is his 5th state finals appearance in 21 years with @TrojanBaskets, but his biggest wins have come from his impact on players.
