@DardenDenuzzi I think it’s a smart idea to discontinue this tradition. Although i’ve heard some great things about it, I think it’s outdated and looks primitive from the outside

@trentoncrabtre2 Hey Trent, that’s a really fascinating concept that really makes you think. Do you think this has to do with a power dynamic and not wanting to be told what to do from a female? Anyways, I hope the best for their reform

@CurtisChiaveri1 Wow! That’s amazing I had no idea the NFL ever left the states. It’s pretty remarkable to think how big of an impact this could have on the citizens of Mexico, especially the youth. I would love to see the NFL continue to expand their locations they play at.

@ambo3385 This is a beautiful commemoration in Kobe’s honor. I love how far and wide his passion, drive, and legacy reached. I wonder how Kobe impacted her specifically.

@shea_carre What an amazing story! This is a beautiful representation of the power of sport and uniting under a common identity. Although sports are packed with rivalry, it ultimately creates communities that can be utilized to do great things.
