@GeoffGrammer That whole ad gives a glimpse into how they really think of our populace and it is not flattering.

I don't begrudge Americans who are butthurt about Eileen Gu's choice to ski under China's flag.

Born and raised in San Francisco then educated at Stanford, she was steeped in the freedoms and opportunities her Chinese immigrant mother fled to America to access over three decades ago.

Yet she betrayed the nation that nurtured her rise by choosing to compete for China instead, all the while critiquing the very system that enabled her ascent. It's this ingratitude that stings, mostly.

What she has done cuts to the core of a simmering resentment against the cosmopolitan ideal that nations are interchangeable playgrounds with no reciprocal obligations.

I'm sure this was calculated opportunism on her part. She earns $23 million from endorsements which dwarf her on-snow wages. Her portfolio consists of as many Chinese brands as Western ones as she's able to capitalize on her cross-cultural appeal (also she's super hot).

The world is changing and people are rightly questioning the myth of rootless globalism. She treats her own nation as an optional backdrop to whom she owes no debt - where she continues, to this day, to live and train in btw - only to pledge allegiance and redirect her glory elsewhere for personal gain.

Great choice. #WoofWoofWoof

I am honored to serve as interim Director of Athletics for my alma mater, the University of New Mexico.

Thank you to @PresidentStokes for her belief in me to steady the ship.

I am incredibly grateful to @flovom for the profound impact his leadership has had on me and our department. I look forward to continuing to build on this wave of incredible momentum.

As always, I will pour my heart and soul into the cherry and silver (and occasional turquoise).

Go Lobos!

If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal.

If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist.

If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian.

If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.

The whole point of Charlie Kirk, who was hardly some radical, is that he would debate anyone, talk to anyone, dialogue with anyone.

And they killed him for it.

I am a lucky man.

I've got a job I love, an amazing family I don't deserve and a wildly unique platform for engagement with so many people I've "met" along the way — some actually in person, some only through the screen on my laptop or my phone here on social media.

I love the interaction. I feed off it. At times, it's my therapy, my outlet, and genuinely a tool I have learned to utilize for work. And make no mistake, I appreciate how unusual having this sort of direct outlet to so many people to share my life, and my nonsense, with is.

You all have shown love as I've shared my life here. Well, most of my life. Sure I post plenty about my two amazing daughters, but not all of the people closest to me are as comfortable being as in the public eye as I am, which is why the woman I've been lucky enough to be in a 20-year-relationship with is rarely a part of what the world who knows me only through social media gets to see.

I've recently shared that two weeks ago, my rock — Jennifer is her name, for those scoring at home — has been diagnosed with breast cancer. She will have surgery in a couple weeks. So far, Jennifer has been far more worried about keeping my spirits up and trying to figure out how to let our loved ones, her coworkers, even the neighbors know without them being sad or worried. She hasn't yet had much of her own outward grieving, panic, anxiety, screaming or whatever outlet she needs.

That can't continue. And soon, she'll have no choice but to focus on herself and not worrying about the stresses of all that other reality life outside of cancer may bring.

As the first few surgery estimates have been starting to roll in, and despite us being so much better off than so many of our fellow New Mexicans, the out of pocket costs are already daunting to think about for our family. And this is without yet even knowing the full burden of her yet-to-be-determined treatment plan or future fighting the disease after surgery nor does it account for the frustrating reality that while FMLA helps, it doesn't mean she'll be getting paid for the work she will have to miss.

No, we aren't in the same situation as many others. We're lucky. But we aren't immune. This disease is one that will challenge our family beyond anything we've ever faced.

I debated whether I should share this story, this link. Some of that was just pride, some was based on a very real uneasiness about using the connection I have with so many people gained in large part to merely being a reporter covering a team they like. (No, I don't think you all follow me for my love of La Bamba or insistence on sharing the news anything a New Mexico state flag show up at sporting event).

But right now, my rock needs a rock. My family could use a little bit of help I never thought I'd have to ask for. And I'm going to do whatever I can to help Jennifer beat this thing without any added stress she will inevitably put on her self, including financial strains.

My daughters deserve that.

Jennifer deserves that.

There is no roll call. There is no concern in the slightest if you can't or simply don't want to contribute. I mean that. But if you can help us in what looks so far like it's going to be a long, difficult journey, I am here asking that you do so.

And if not for the cancer, for the peace of mind a woman who has spent 20 years of her life putting up with me deserves. https://t.co/K0BtPeGmHA
