@gerardkcohen Impressive show of humanity, @gerardkcohen I would not have had the skills necessary to be a part of your team but after reading this thread, I would have been honored to have been a part of it.
Grateful to have read it for lots of reasons. More New York than New York. Makes me love and appreciate my friends from Inwood even more. Proud of my Irish American heritage and their special style of hospitality. ☘️ #thegreatestbeerrunever

I wish I could open my social media and see highlights about Women’s sports. ESPN, Sportcenter, Bleacher Report etc. post about the NBA, NFL and Men’s NCAA right now. There are so many top 25 teams battling in the Women’s NCAA right now, with NO coverage. 😡
Do Better.
@intentionally To your son:
Try your best & have fun!!
As a fellow Dad that just went through this I would encourage you to acknowledge your own nervousness, hopes and protective feelings for your son and be kind, patient and encouraging to yourself throughout because it’s a tough process!
“It seems to me the quality that makes any book, music, painting worthwhile is life, just that…the best of them can catch an echo of that (life) & you leave…with that illumination, which feels I’m going to say holy, by which I mean human raptness.”
