Good morning beautiful people & HAPPY THANKSGIVING
I am wildly thankful this year for my family, for life, for ball, & FOR ALL OF YOU
THANK YOU for following along & allowing me to live the dumbest life of all time
I’m the luckiest dude on Earth
NOW..GO PLAY YOUR TURKEY BOWLS
Good tidbit — when Alec Pierce was at Cincinnati, he told the coaches to put the team's best cornerback on him everyday at practice. For two straight years, "Alec wouldn't go up against anyone else," one coach said.
That corner was Sauce Gardner
Now they're teammates in Indy
Charlie Kirk, a name synonymous with having the courage to speak what you believe and seek/welcome conversations with those whom you disagree with.
I’m not a political person but I am a proud American citizen and today was startling, saddening, and maddening all at the same time.. I’ve realized that I’m a bit naive to how crazy it all has become but watching a man get hunted and slayed in broad daylight because of his opinions made me disgusted and devastated.
This can’t be what we actually are or become as a country.. I believe that the good people will always outnumber the evil people but damn… today was an alarming day in our country’s history.
2 kids lost a dad.. a wife lost a husband.. and societal discourse lost a voice.
RIP @charliekirk11.. I send my prayers, thoughts, and love to his family and friends.
Thank you @Pacers.. This season was a lot of fun.
Fresh off of an Eastern Conference finals appearance last year.. nobody, outside of Indy, expected shit from this team. So when they stumbled out of the gates, everybody wrote them off.. then the All Star break came and went and all of a sudden, DON’T LOOK NOW, The Pacers became the hottest team in basketball.
They were counted out.. overlooked.. voted overrated.. and they showed up in the biggest moments EVERY DAMN TIME (except for tonight.. obviously)
We’re all bummed for Tyrese.. actually sick to our stomachs for him.. He was playing thru a lot for this city, and ultimately will have to sacrifice his entire life to get back healthy to try and do it all again. I appreciate the hell out of him, Pascal, TJ, Obi, Myles, Nembhard, Nesmith, Mathurin, JJ, TB13, Sheppard, Thomas Bryant, Coach Tricky Ricky Carlisle and his staff..
This city came together and was insanely joyful while rallying around this gritty team.
It was truly a HELL OF A RIDE. This city will be very grateful forever.
CONGRATS TO OKC on becoming NBA Champions. Your team and fanbase were first class. WELL EARNED.
