@Frank_Frangie Maybe you need a Drink(witz)?

[Afshine Emrani MD FACC @afshineemrani]

A father will spend his entire life bleeding himself dry to keep his children safe. He will never, under any circumstances, let his child sacrifice a piece of herself to save him.
​She was 25. She was an ICU nurse. And she knew that if she asked, his answer would be an immediate, furious, heartbroken no.
​So she made a choice in silence.
​For eight months, she quietly endured dozens of blood panels, antibody crossmatches, and psychological evaluations on her days off. She hid the bruises from the IV lines. She forged ahead through every risk and every terrifying statistic, swearing the surgical transplant team to absolute secrecy. On the hospital charts, she was listed as an anonymous, altruistic donor.
​Two operating rooms, side by side. One daughter giving back the breath her father gave her twenty-five years ago.
​When he finally woke up from surgery—weeping with gratitude for the "stranger" who had just saved his life—the door swung open.
​In walked his daughter. In a hospital gown. Holding an IV pole.
​The moment his eyes registered her bandaged abdomen, the room went completely still. There are no words in human language for the sound a father makes when he realizes the stranger who saved him was the little girl he raised.
​As I type this, I have a patient walking this exact same sacred, terrifying path right now. Two lives on the line for the purest kind of love that exists on this earth.
​Please pause your scroll for just five seconds today. Drop a prayer, an intention, and all the healing energy you have for both of them.
​Modeh Ani. Life is an impossible, beautiful miracle.

Yay! The Periwinkle People Eaters are out of the World Cup! Viva la Cape Verde!

@MaggieLJohnson “They can make it a 2-possession game!!!”

Honorable mention: “They can make it a 1-possession game!!!”

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@MaggieLJohnson I’ve been getting those watching Mizzou play in March.

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@chambleebrandel “Live From” is the best - it’s often better than the event it previews. Great journalism on the @RexHoggardGC interview of Woodland (which is sadly lacking in most of the sporting world). @RichLernerGC is a superb host and you and @mcginleygolf are top-notch analysts.

@GregSchwem Hughes may not have surpassed Sandy Koufax but he’s now likely to be on the Mount Rushmore of American Jewish Athletes.

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@GregSchwem Because the old joke is that “Famous Jewish Sports Stars” is the thinnest book in the library and because there are far too many Americans who are antisemitic. So celebrate one of ours as an 🇺🇸 hero today? You bet we will! (And for GK Aerin Frankel and the women’s Gold also!)

@PowerMizzoucom The better question: Hey, Ohio State, if you’re going to let them score why not call your last time out before you are going to let them score and give yourself another 35 seconds?

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@KOMUnews I don’t know if I can blame this guy too much. Maybe he was just trying to do his part to help Mizzou “generate” some offense?

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@DanWetzel Hook and Lateral!

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@PowerMizzoucom Drink committed malpractice when he didn’t go for the first down. Kirby Moore committed malpractice on 3rd and 6 when he tried the stupid drag route across the field with our smallest and least likely to plow for more yards receiver. (I’m sick of watching Coleman dance.)

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@BryanDFischer Not a hook. SLANT and Lateral!

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@br_betting @NFL Not a hook. SLANT and Lateral!

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@DKThompson To our beloved but misinformed posters, the 4th Stooge’s name was Shemp! Not Shep! SHEMP! (And Drinkwitz is unlikely to leave Mizzou anytime soon.)

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@jjmolina03 @VicLombardi But I would argue that the “football move” was not made under control. It was made while stumbling, and trying to maintain his balance as he was trying to complete the catch.

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@CFBKings Then on ABC Kevin Neghandi’s update showed a highlight of Missouri’s go-ahead TD and noted that after a successful 2 point conversion they led 26-20 but then he added that “South Carolina has just scored” and the graphic showed 26 to 26. The final was Mizzou 29-20.

[Geoff Solomon @gmsolomon]

@CFBKings Not a good night for ESPN. Early in the MIZ/SC game Dave Pasch introduced Mizzou QB Beau Pribula and said he had battled and lost the starting quarterback job to Sam Horn but then Horn got hurt leaving Pribula the starter. Not correct. Beau was the presumptive starter.
