Shedeur Sanders held a free youth football camp in Brooklyn, Ohio. The camp—in collaboration with #Browns Give Back—hosted over 500 kids who spent the afternoon learning the game.

After camp, kids got to meet Sanders while enjoying pizza, ice cream and bounce houses on site.

This is what’s happening in Chicago that they don’t talk about because it doesn’t fit their narrative. In fact, Black folks are doing this in cities all over the country. We’re happy, healthy and enjoying the summer.

Michael Jordan: "To win, you got to lose. To be happy, you got to have disappointment."

"I really don't have regrets. As soon as you look back in your history and you come up with something you feel like you want to change, something else has to change."

On disappointment:

"To win, you got to lose. To be successful, you got to have something that's not successful. To be happy, you got to have disappointment. All of those things have evolved to make me who I am and understand the benefits and privileges I have for being who I am."

Jordan shares what his parents taught him:

"Don't wear your reputation. Don't wear your accolades. Don't wear your personality on your sleeve. Let it happen. Let it be you. It is who you are, don't hide from it. But don't rub it in people's faces."

On being voted the greatest athlete:

"It's ironic that I'm the youngest of the three. It's all relevant based on who is watching now. If you ask 20 years from now, I'm pretty sure LeBron may beat me based on who's going to be making the voting. I say that to understand: it is what it is. I don't wear it. I don't showcase it. Someone else's opinion. As an athlete, all you want to do is be the best athlete you can be."

Jordan reflects on his father:

"I had him for 32 years. Obviously, he was murdered. Rarely do I get the chance to talk about him. But the thing I remember, I think about him practically every day. For a person like myself, who lives in the spotlight and is so critical from people all the time, what I do, what I say, where I go, the thing he always said: 'Take a pause before you make a decision. And say: what if.'"

He explains the purpose:

"Whatever decision you make is always going to have consequences, pros and cons. If you think about the consequences, you make the right decisions. Now, all the decisions I made, other people may view them as not the right decisions from their perspective."

Jordan addresses his "failed" baseball career:

"Everybody says it was a failed opportunity to play baseball. That's what they think. For me, it was the best thing that could have happened. It allowed me to go back to the game with stronger passion. At the same time, I was able to understand the love these minor league baseball players have, making $1,500 a month. Which is nothing. But for them, it was big."

He continues:

"To see that helped me put things in perspective to understand the platform I was on in '93. When I went back to it in '95 and '96, I appreciated it even greater. When we won those championships, those things mattered to me far greater than what I did in '91, '92, '93. People don't see that. People will never understand that."

Jordan shares the deeper lesson:

"All they think about is, well, he batted .202, he struck out a certain number of times. Yeah, okay. But the effort was there. The learning curve and the passion was there. That has transcended not just to me, but to other people who are afraid to do things because they're worried about the perception from other places. To me, that's more gratifying than anything. That's what my father and mother instilled in me: take a negative and turn it into a positive. Don't be afraid to fail."

On his mother's constant reminder:

"My mother calls me practically every day. The last words are always: 'Keep your nose clean.' That's her constant reminder: people are watching, people are learning, people are paying attention."

On why he stepped back from the spotlight:

"I want my life to be my life. My time in the spotlight is dwindling, and I want to be able to control what I do and what I don't want to do. I need no more admiration. I've had enough. And it's been great."

Jordan shares what retirement means to him:

"Sometimes I surprise myself saying, 'I got nothing to do today. I got nothing to do tomorrow. I got nothing to do on Wednesday.' That's ultimately retirement. That's where I want to be. Not worrying about what I have to do tomorrow while I'm living in the moment right now."

University of ​Colorado Football Coach Deion Sanders suggests certain players only chasing money in the Portal could be jeopardizing their futures:

​"I've never chased money in my life. I've chased greatness. And guess what came with greatness? The money"
