Did the Big12 Commissioner really just admit to visiting Ames for the first time even though he has been in the position since August 2022….. not a good look…
Just had parents at a PRN event tell me I didn’t deserve to have the letters AT on my shirt because I wouldn’t diagnose their kid with a concussion and insisted they go to an urgent care. THIS is why there is a “shortage” of athletic trainers.
@HunterAmosATC@BigB_TheeAT But there is research out that that shows when someone with that cap on and a regular helmet collide the risk for a cervical spine injury increases exponentially. They aren’t taking that into consideration at all.
@BigB_TheeAT There was a study that was done that there are 6 helmets that test better than any helmet with that dumb thing on it. If they really cared about player safety they would mandate that all players had to wear one of those 6 helmets.
Imagine thinking you’re the good guys when you’re celebrating the last day of Black History Month by banning Black History Month programs https://t.co/a5rkmvCwj3
I can’t understand how school can think about paying athletes when they can barely pay the staff they have a decent wage…. Just ridiculous honestly…

Sec Yellen is right. The US can afford two wars. We can afford 4 wars. The US could also afford universal healthcare, a job guarantee, end to poverty. The question of what we can afford is not a real one. The only question, and the only thing that matters, is what we prioritize.
Brock Purdy is who everyone expected Trey Lance to be.
If this was Trey Lance the entire time, the narratives would be “best draft decision in a long time, Pat Mahomes 2.0, MVP candidate, etc.” and not “it’s the system, his weapons are doing all of the work, etc.”
Labor Day reminder: If the min wage increased at the rate of inflation & productivity since 1960 it'd be $26 today—not $7.25. Meaning—billionaires & corps have stolen at least $19/hour from working Americans for 60 years
We don't suffer a lack of resources—but an excess of greed
The language here keeps saying shortage of ATs. There's no shortage of ATs There's a money shortage to pay emergency trained medical professionals. ATs work long hours w/ hundreds of athletes w/ expected OT so yeah appropriate pay expected. #highschool#AT

90% of Biden's student debt relief would go to Americans making less than $75,000 a year.
70% of the benefits of canceling all student debt would go to the bottom 80%.
70% of the $510 billion in PPP loans that were forgiven went to the top 20%.
Total hypocrisy!
