CONGRATULATIONS TO THE REFEREES AND THE MIAMI HURRICANES ON THE WIN TONIGHT AGAINST NORTH CAROLINA.
One of the worst officiated games we have ever seen in college football history.
North Carolina recovered TWO consecutive onside kicks, only for penalties to wipe them both out.
Some all-time bad calls went against UNC.
🚨 COMMITMENT ALERT! 🚨
Michael Malone and the Tar Heels got their guy, securing a commitment from five-star prospect DeMarcus Henry! #GDTBATH ⬇️

100 years ago, thirteen black men put together their savings and founded Safe Bus Company, making it the largest black owned bus company at that time.
It was formed in Winston-Salem to serve the black neighborhoods due to segregation and operated till 1972.
Thirteen Black men pooled their life savings to purchase $100,000 in stock, forming Safe Bus Co., Inc. on May 26, 1926. The company quickly grew into the largest African American–owned bus company in the nation.
Safe Bus expanded rapidly and was once described as the largest Black-owned transportation company in the world. By 1955, the company grossed $825,000. At its peak, it carried approximately 15,000 passengers per day, earned $18,000 weekly, and employed 75 people.
Early fares began at five cents and increased as the company expanded. The fleet grew from 35 to 42 buses, serving roughly 20 percent of the city. Black bus drivers earned between $1.60 and $2.50 per hour—wages that exceeded those of many schoolteachers at the time.
By 1968, Safe Bus provided transportation across the entire city. However, following integration, the company experienced a sharp decline in ridership. Changing social attitudes and increased competition led to significant financial losses.
In 1972, stockholders voted to sell Safe Bus to the city. The Winston-Salem Transit Authority then assumed responsibility for public transportation, marking the end of one of the most successful Black-owned transit companies in American history.
REMINDER: #Browns WR KC Concepcion was mocked for how he spoke at the #NFL Combine.
KC has dealt with a speech impediment and stuttering his entire life.
The courage it took to stand in front of cameras and speak publicly is admirable.
Special person.
