Take 2 minutes and watch this. History lesson you wont forget.

Alex Rodriguez asked a question. Reggie Jackson answered it.

(Shouts to the producer and rest of the desk for staying out of Reggie’s way and just letting him talk. I doubt they expected this answer. But it’s a great few minutes of television.)

Heard from some Blue Jays season ticket holders who got their 2025 renewal notices via email this afternoon. Typically first payments for the following year are required in August or September. This year it’s July 22, (eight days before the trade deadline).

60 years ago, Walter Cronkite of @CBSNews interviewed Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, the Supreme Allied Commander for Operation Overlord: “These people gave us a chance and they bought time for us so that we can do better than we have before.” #DDay80

My home province, tiny little New Brunswick, landed in the first wave on Juno Beach as a group. The North Shore Regiment was composed of french and english, woodsmen and farmers, fishermen and labourers, husbands and sons. From June 6th until the end of the war, New Brunswick sacrificed its best for one single cause: democracy. #dday #democracy #northshoreregiment

“You’re the savior of the people, you bring tears to my eyes.”
“No no, you saved Europe.”
“My hero.”
“No, you are our hero.”
“I pray for you.”

Heartbreaking between @ZelenskyyUa & a #DDay veteran, who knows the cost. He kisses his hand & won’t let go.

Andy Rooney landed on the beach of Normandy days after D-Day, 80 years ago today. In 2004, he shared a firsthand account of “a day unlike any other.”

“It’s hard for anyone who has been in a war to describe the terror of it to anyone who hasn’t,” he said. https://t.co/xknrIeLymT.

Here’s Craig Berube and Brendan Shanahan duking it out during their playing days. Now they are working together with the Leafs https://t.co/4axy7A6lwW

[Pierre LeBrun @PierreVLeBrun]

As I’ve said many times before, one of the damaging effects of the Dubas/Shanahan divorce last summer was losing the last window to look at moving core guys before their full NMC’s kicked in. Can’t ask a new GM to come in last summer and feel comfortable doing that right away. So now the work is more delicate and challenging if that’s where the Leafs are going. Doesn’t mean it can’t be done. But it’s way harder.

“WE’RE GOING TO BOSTON AGAIN BUDDY AND THIS TIME WE’RE GONNA FINISH THE JOB”

The greatest call ever #LeafsForever
