Agree @BeschlossDC. JFK’s American University Commencement speech was his greatest, most luminous and a call for peace.

Tatis Jr. took a $2M loan that came in exchange for 10% of his lifetime MLB earnings.

So far, he will have paid out $35 million.

Elite connection is not a byproduct of high-performing teams. It’s the prerequisite.

Most leaders have it backwards. They treat connection as the reward for hitting their goals.

Nicholas Epley’s new research shows why that’s costing them more than they realize.

[Washington Speakers Bureau @WSB_Speakers]

New from Nicholas Epley: A Little More Social, out May 19.

Connection isn't a soft extra. It's a precondition for trust, candor, and high performance, especially in hybrid and digitally saturated workplaces.

I am deeply saddened to hear the news of the passing of Bobby Cox. He was a wonderful person, a great human being. He will be remembered for his greatness, leadership, legacy and above everything else his humbleness. Thank you Bobby! 🙏

Dabo Swinney shares the Gandhi quote that became the foundation of his program and why your beliefs determine your destiny.

"Your beliefs become your thoughts.
Your thoughts become your words.
Your words become your actions.
Your actions become your habits.
Your habits become your values.
And your values become your destiny."

"That's how powerful it is that you believe and you think the right way."

This is why you must guard your mind first.

If you don't believe you can succeed, you won't even try.

"As a man thinketh, so is he."

"If you think you don't deserve it, if you think you're a dog, if you think the world's against you - well, guess what? That'll become your words. That'll become your actions. That'll become your habits. That'll become your values."

"That'll become your destiny."

Choose where to focus because everything follows that.

"Your destiny is determined by what your beliefs are and what your thoughts are."

The chain is clear:
Beliefs → Thoughts → Words → Actions → Habits → Values → Destiny

Actions build habits and your habits build your identity.

It all starts with what you do, what you say, and what you think.

I have been informed by NBC that I won’t be back with FNIA this fall and it has given me time to reflect and also to look ahead. 

It’s disappointing  news but I want to thank my NBC family for making the last 17 years so special.  I’ll have lasting memories of my time there, especially with Rodney Harrison who has become a tremendous friend.

God has always directed me in these moments and while I’m not sure what the next step will be for me—whether it will be in football, in broadcasting, or getting more involved in church and community outreach —I know God has plans for my life and I can’t wait see them unfold. And I am reminded of one of my favorite verses in the Bible-Romans 8:28. “God works all things for His good for those who love the Lord.”

Fear doesn't shrink when you wait it out. It grows. Every time I've walked towards the thing that scared me, it got smaller. Every time I avoided it, it grew bigger. Move towards it. Even an inch at a time.

Rishi Sunak says Zelensky showed him real-time casualty data from the front in Munich.
- 80% of Ukrainian kills are from drones
- Russia is losing 1,000 soldiers a day.

His conclusion: Europe is not ready for this kind of war.

[Nicholas Burns @RNicholasBurns]

America’s future should be in close alignment with Europe with which we share fundamental values and interests. The Trump Administration’s about face is ahistorical and completely misguided. The great majority of American citizens support NATO and respect Europe.

A single dose of a new cancer drug made a brain tumor almost disappear – in just five days.

Doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital reported “dramatic and rapid” tumor regression in the first patients treated with a next-generation form of CAR T-cell therapy for glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive brain cancers known.

The therapy, called CARv3-TEAM-E, was developed to overcome a major hurdle in treating solid tumors: their ability to hide from the immune system.

The personalized treatment reprograms a patient’s immune cells to attack the tumor, and in one extraordinary case, nearly eliminated the cancer within just five days. This novel therapy is designed to target multiple features of the tumor at once, a strategy that may help overcome the common challenge of treatment resistance in solid tumors like glioblastoma.

Although the tumors eventually returned, the early outcomes were described as unprecedented. One patient saw a 60% reduction in tumor size that lasted for half a year—an impressive result in a cancer known for its aggressiveness.

The trial’s success marks a major step forward for immunotherapy in brain cancer and raises new hopes for long-term control or even a cure. Researchers are now working to refine the treatment and extend its effects, with the ultimate goal of turning a once-terminal diagnosis into a survivable condition.

Nothing has changed my opinion that there is no better coach for Clemson football. He built this program up and I believe he’ll get it back to elite.

The Honey Deuce at the U.S. Open is the best cocktail in sports — and the numbers back it up.

2024 U.S. Open Sales
556,782 Honey Deuces
x $23 each
————
= $12.8 million

They raised the price by a dollar last year and still sold 100,000 more drinks.

Pure insanity.
