There’s no way to describe this feeling.
We wanted so much more.
We let ourselves down but we won’t let this define us.
We dreamed of giving our country something special, and we came up short. To every fan who believed in us from day one, thank you. Your support never went unnoticed. We’ll carry this pain with us, learn from it and come back stronger than ever. This badge deserves nothing less. 🇺🇸
EXCLUSIVE: USA star Christian Pulisic is OUT today with a calf injury against Australia and Ricardo Pepi will get the start, USMNT manager Mauricio Pochettino tells FOX Sports’ @JennyTaft.
Per reports, members of Congress working on college sports legislation are confused by the recent consternation around athletes gambling. Placing bets on outcomes they influence is a primary source of income for many of them.
If Brunson hadn’t kept his cool and had run up on Wemby, the refs would’ve snap called a tech on Jalen, reviewed the play & 100% have given Wemby a flagrant.
Instead, Brunson was a pro and Wemby gets to completely skate on it. Doesn’t seem right to me.
Seeing lots of videos of New Yorkers acting like absolute fools after Game 3. Attacking cops, attacking spurs fans, attacking each other. I’d say act like you’ve been here before but…..
Ray’s Rock - Omaha Beach
On the morning of June 6, 1944, 23 year old Staff Sergeant Arnold “Ray” Lambert came ashore with the first wave of the 1st Infantry Division on the eastern side of Omaha Beach. At this small patch of concrete he saved nearly 20 lives:
The division came under intense fire from several German bunkers surrounding the entrance to the Colville Draw (one of two exits off Omaha Beach). Ray, a medic, immediately went to work.
He was shot in the arm. Moments later he was hit by shrapnel in the leg, but Ray kept pulling men to safety. He pulled nearly 20 wounded soldiers to cover behind this 8ft wide obstacle, treating each soldier before going out in search of others.
After several hours under fire, while pulling a wounded soldier from the ocean, he was struck by a landing craft. It dropped its ramp on top of him, breaking his back. He fell face down in the water, drowning. The craft backed up and nearby soldiers pulled an unconscious Ray to safety, eventually evacuating him off the beach.
Remarkably, Ray had already earned two Silver Stars and three Purple Hearts in Sicily and North Africa, prior to landing in France. But here in Normandy his war would end.
He awoke in a hospital back in England a day later. In the next bed over was his brother, who had also been wounded at Omaha.
When asked about his work on D-Day, Ray simply said, “I did what I was called to do.”
Ray Lambert passed in 2021 at 100 years old. He exemplified the best of American grit and why remembering this day is so important.
This is quietly one of the dumbest things I've ever seen happen to one of the main entrances downtown off I35. I've taken the 20th st. exit probably 5,000 times in my life, not an exaggeration... this is a miss IMO. I don't have the answer so feel a little guilty posting.
A safer, more connected Southwest Boulevard is taking shape on Kansas City’s West Side.
Through the Public Works Department, Kansas City is calming traffic, rebuilding sidewalks, and creating room for pedestrians and cyclists to move through the neighborhood safely.
Isn’t it crazy that we let people who have never actually “Done it” be in control of things? I’m specifically talking about politicians but I think it’s an overarching theme for many. Please set economic policy with your book experience 😂😂
So Graham Platner had a Nazi chest tattoo for 20 years, rooted for military members to get killed, lied about being poor — he went to a rich boarding school and he was ending nudes to multiple women and his wife caught him and told the campaign per @wsj. https://t.co/FUunZzlTGZ
