American Heroes! Never Forget.

[Sterling Snow @sterlingmsnow]

I reread this every year.

I cry like a baby every year.

Todd Beamer died a father, husband, and hero.

Todd: Hello… Operator… listen to me. I can’t speak very loud. This is an emergency. I’m a passenger on a United flight to San Francisco. Our plane has been hijacked.

Lisa: I understand. Can they see you?

Todd: No. There are three that we know of. They have knives — razor knives, like box cutters. Someone announced from the cockpit there was a bomb. It sounded fake.

Lisa: Your name?Todd: Todd Beamer. United Flight 93.Todd: They killed one passenger in first class. They forced most of us back. Fourteen of us here. Five flight attendants. The guy with the bomb ordered us to sit on the floor.

Lisa: Are you okay?

Todd: We’re going down… wait. No. We’re leveling off. We changed directions. We’re flying east again.

Todd: A guy named Jeremy called his wife. She told him two planes hit the World Trade Center. Lisa, is that true?

Lisa: I have to tell you the truth. It’s very bad. Both towers are gone. A third plane hit the Pentagon. Our country is under attack. I’m afraid your plane may be part of their plan.

Todd: Oh God. Lisa, will you do something for me? Call my wife and my kids. Promise me you’ll call.

Lisa: I promise.

Todd: Our home number is… You have the same name as my wife. Lisa. We’ve been married ten years. She’s pregnant with our third child. Tell her I love her. I’ll always love her. We have two boys — David, he’s 3, and Andrew, he’s 1. Tell them their daddy loves them and he is so proud of them. The baby is due January 12th. I saw an ultrasound. We still don’t know if it’s a girl or a boy.

Lisa: I’ll tell them. I promise, Todd.(Lisa patches in the FBI.)

Agent: Todd, your plane is on a course for Washington. Best guess is the White House or the Capitol.

Todd: I understand. I’ll be back.

Todd: Everyone knows this isn’t a normal hijacking. We have decided we will not be pawns in their plot.

Lisa: What are you going to do?

Todd: Four of us are going to rush the one with the bomb. Then the cockpit. A stewardess is getting boiling water. We’ll take them out.

Todd: Would you pray with me?They pray the Lord’s Prayer. Then: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou art with me.

Todd: God help me. Jesus help me.Are you guys ready? Let’s Roll.

Best hitter ever.

[the Sports ON Tap @thesportsontap]

On the last day of the 1941 season, Ted Williams was hitting .39955.

Officially, that rounds up to .400.

His manager offered to sit him. He could have walked away as a .400 hitter without lifting a bat.

He played both games of a doubleheader instead.

Understand what was at stake. Hitting .400 is the most romantic number in baseball. It had been done a handful of times and it was already becoming rare.

Williams was 23 years old. If he sat, the record book would say .400 forever.

He refused.

His reasoning, as he told it for the rest of his life, was that he didn't want to be a .400 hitter with a technicality. He wanted to earn it standing in the box.

So on September 28, 1941, in Philadelphia, Ted Williams played a doubleheader against the Athletics with the single most famous batting average in American sports hanging on it.

He went 6 for 8.

He finished the season at .406.

Nobody has hit .400 in a Major League season since. Eighty five years and counting. It has become one of those records people quietly assume will never be broken again.

And here's the part that makes the whole thing even more absurd.

Ted Williams lost nearly five full seasons of his prime to military service in two different wars. He was a Marine fighter pilot in World War II and flew combat missions in Korea, where he crash landed a burning jet.

He still finished with 521 home runs and a career .344 average.

His final at bat, in his last game in 1960 at Fenway Park, he hit a home run. Then he ran the bases, went into the dugout, and never came out to tip his cap.

And when he was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1966, he used his speech to argue that Negro Leagues greats like Satchel Paige and Josh Gibson belonged in Cooperstown too. That was 1966. He didn't have to say that. He said it anyway, and it's cited as one of the reasons the doors eventually opened.

Two games he could have skipped.

Eight at bats he didn't have to take.

Six hits, and the last .400 season anyone has ever had.

Turns out being a Cowboy isn't limited to students. 🤠

On #NationalDayoftheCowboy, we're tipping our hat to one HSU parent who never misses a chance to show up in full game-day style.

The Cowboy family wouldn't be the same without fans like you.

[Wesley Hunt @WesleyHuntTX]

It’s amazing how quickly the gatekeepers of culture decide what’s acceptable.

In June, every logo becomes a rainbow. Every stadium, every jersey, every broadcast gets a political message.

But put a Bible verse on your cap? Suddenly that’s “controversial.”

Put an American slogan front and center? Suddenly that’s “divisive.”

The NFL had no problem painting political movements in the end zone. Major League Baseball has no problem turning every June into a month-long corporate activism campaign.

Yet the moment someone wants to celebrate faith, patriotism, or traditional values, we’re told those things don’t belong in sports.

Funny how the people preaching inclusion always seem to have a very specific list of viewpoints they’re willing to include.

If rainbow logos belong in sports, then so do Bible verses.

If political messages belong in sports, then so do messages celebrating faith, family, and country.

The double standard isn’t subtle anymore. EVERYONE sees it.

[𝕊𝕠𝕝𝕒 ℂ𝕙𝕒𝕕 🎚️ @sola_chad]

If you’re gonna force players to wear the rainbow, don’t get mad when they teach you what the rainbow actually means.

It’s not a celebration of sin, it’s a covenant with God’s people.

How can you not stand to protect Americans first??!!!?? Disgusting!!

[Libs of TikTok @libsoftiktok]

HOLY SH*T. The Democrats REFUSED to stand when Trump said that the duty of the American government was to protect American citizens, NOT illegal aliens.

Democrats OFFICIALLY hate America.
