@Hali Sister Act 2 is strong. The piano scene w Lauryn Hill "eye on the sparrow" is perfect, wish they let her finish the song.
Rocky II for me. Its not Rocky but its pretty close. Apollo is great in that movie
Most aren’t aware that Jim Harbaugh wrote this himself. What a legacy piece! I remember he & Jack calling me as the two of them proudly read it to me the first time.
Then Jim had to hound the great James Earl Jones to record it! Flew to NY to pester him. So glad he relented.

"I hate those guys. I was only there one year, but I definitely hate those guys. All that they were saying... And they can't say much because I went 2-0 against them. So they're gonna be little brother to me forever"
BREAKING: University of Michigan coach Dusty May has agreed to become the new head coach of the Dallas Mavericks, sources tell me, @AdamSchefter, @PeteThamel. Major college-to-pro jump for the 2026 NCAA championship coach and swing for the Mavericks and Masai Ujiri.
Margo Martindale is terrific in #TheLongHaul, a thoughtful drama about grief, loneliness, and an aging trucker struggling to adapt to a changing world. Slow but moving. @Tribeca#TribecaFestival https://t.co/boLY4UoDvB
That time yesterday when we had deep chats with Margo Martindale, Cole Sprouse, Stephen Root and Fred Bryant Sr. all within a span of 20 minutes 🤭 Talking #TheLongHaul at @Tribeca https://t.co/FXARgF3CXd

I love the fact that my two favorite MM actresses have both now done movies in which they play truckers but The Long Haul is very special and a very emotional film.
Margo Martindale can do no wrong in my book, but David Drake's The Long Haul gives her one of the best roles of her illustrious career, a showcase for her talent and incredible range as an actor. #tribecaff
Tom Brady reveals the overlooked reason practice squad players never succeed in the NFL
It’s not a lack of talent.
Brady watched it happen for 20 years. The pattern was undeniable.
As soon as a practice squad player got promoted and had to perform under real pressure, they crumbled. It took years for Brady to understand why.
“There’s 53 guys on the active roster and there’s now 15 guys on the practice squad. So there’s 68 players. But those practice squad players are important because if anybody on the active roster gets hurt, they can get elevated to the squad.”
“These scout team receivers would come in and practice with the scout team and they do really well. And I’d be watching. I’m like, ‘Man, we got to get that guy. Let’s get him up on offense. He’s making a lot of plays.’”
“Then all of a sudden, we’re like, ‘Hey man, you’re doing really well. You got to come over here and deal with the pressure of succeeding now that you have expectation.’”
“And these guys are like, they weren’t prepared for it. So whatever we saw in practice against where there was not a lot of pressure, now when they’re put in a situation where there’s an expectation for performance, they’ve never had to personally deal with that and then they fail.”
“And then what I realized was a lot of guys on those practice squads, they don’t want to be elevated to the roster.”
“They’re very happy living this life where they could tell their family and friends, which I have no problem with that. But the reality is a lot of guys don’t want the pressure of dealing with top.”
Twenty years in the league and seven Super Bowl rings later, Brady learned that talent wasn’t the hardest thing to find.
It was people who actually wanted the pressure that comes with being great.
Do you guys remember when Jim Harbaugh said this!?
Michigan really is America's team.
You either love us or hate us but either way you watch.
