@abeFroeman_king @smerconish @CNN @cnni @opinion_joe It’s not a free education. They get an “opportunity” to get an education. They are practicing and playing sports full-time. Yes, it’s still a privilege. But if you are generating $millions you get compensation. The other solution: take the $millions out of “amateur” sports.

@smerconish @CNN @cnni @opinion_joe Should we go back to a system where college “amateur” athletes get no money while making millions of dollars for universities, coaches and others? No, that’s not fair! He’s a suggestion, take all the money out of college athletics.

Beautiful day for a bike ride. I got to take one on my bike that is now NOT ugly. There is still time to get a ride in. #biking #cycling #beautifulday

On MLK Day I would like to celebrate the contributions of Coretta Scott King. This young journalist at Virginia Union University was covering her efforts to push for a King Holiday. But she was also a force for social justice along side her husband. #MLKDay #MartinLutherKingJr

Well I picked up this hardware over my shoulder today. Pinocchio represents 35 years of Magical service at the Walt Disney Company (ABC). I am thankful for many reasons … mostly connected to the many people I have worked with over my 35 years at 6abc Action News. #6abcActionNews

If “YOU KNOW!” … then you know why I painted my former ugly bike this color. This is much better … brand new to me. Thank you to Kamal and everyone else at Drexel Hill Cyclery for taking it apart and putting it back together.

Thank you 6abc AccuWeather forecast. The rain stopped and the turkey is outside in the deep fryer. Foremost, I acknowledge God for all the reasons I have to give thanks. #HappyThanksgiving

So, a wonderful co-worker saw this and felt she had to get it for me. It’s Halloween Broccoli. But broccoli always looks this way to me … scary and evil! #ihatebroccoli #broccoli

My relationship with the evil weed! Thanks to a co-worker who found this and immediately thought of me. #broccolihater #broccoli

Thanks again to our neighbor for the Backyard Fireworks. No need to go to the Parkway in Philadelphia. Just grab a chair and sit out back. This is just a small clip. #backyardfireworks

Who doesn’t love seeing a rainbow … especially leaving work on a Friday!? #rainbow
