Luke Falk shared a Mike Leach story that stopped me cold:
Two kids. One rich. One poor.
Every training camp, Coach Leach told his team about these 2 kids.
The rich kid has two choices.
Get soft. Get entitled. Expect everything handed to him because he was handed more.
Or take the resources, the coaching, the opportunities, and compound them into something greater.
The poor kid has two choices too.
Say nobody gave him anything. Blame the world. Make his circumstances the reason he never became what he could have been.
Or outwork everyone in the room.
Luke said the locker room had both. Kids from wealth. Kids from nothing. Kids with every advantage. Kids who scraped for every inch.
Same choice for all of them.
Ownership or victimhood.
Fuel or excuse.
The rich kid can waste the head start or build on it.
The poor kid can drown in the deficit or weaponize it.
Greatness doesn't come from where you start.
It comes from which kid you choose to feed.

The Olathe School District (Kansas) alone has over two hundred (200) administrative employees making more ($100,000 - $323,000) than any single teacher. The highest teacher salaries are in the $90,000 range. Olathe has been talking about closing school buildings. #ksed#ksleg
Peace of mind matters during recovery. Really enjoyed visiting MidAmerica Rehabilitation in OP and hearing from their dedicated team about the care they’re providing to Kansans every day.
It is not, in fact, unusual in America to carry a fully loaded gun and extra magazines. Trump is clueless—and dangerously clueless because he’s the president.
Nik Bonitto with the great get off. Will Campbell can only get a piece of him as Bonitto ghosts him & pressures the QB.
The get off is the most important part of rushing the passer! #PassRush#BroncosCountry
