Jason Kelce: “Some people struggle to play in this city. They can’t handle the boos, the media, or our fans. I consider it a blessing to play in the most passionate sports town in America.. If you’re not performing, they will let you know. But as long as you show effort, they will love you.. They’re not gonna accept your excuses and soft-ass nonsense.”

The good news: There's a lot we can do to make building safer.

A thread: My best friend took his life in 2013, shortly after a Pennsylvania climber went missing in the Sierra, and I bound their stories together. I spent 8 years on it—giving up often-and only @AlpinistMag saw what I was trying to say.

Today, I announced my run for City Council At-Large. I’m excited to get to work for Philly and address our most pressing issues — to bring safety to our streets, affordable housing to our communities, and modern, clean schools for every neighborhood. I hope you’ll join me.
