there’s some kid who’s gonna see some absolute tug boats at the lake today and it is going to alter the trajectory of his life and that’s just beautiful to me
Why does an undrafted rookie have the top-selling PLL jersey in 2025? 🧐
Josh Balcarcel is a rookie out of @Marist_MensLax, who was signed by @PLLRedwoods after the draft.
In 2024, Balcarcel was selected to wear the honorary No. 34 jersey at Marist. This number is special because it was worn by a player named Eddie Coombs, who tragically passed away in a car accident in 2011.
Balcarcel wore 34 for two seasons at Marist and is now carrying on the tradition in @PremierLacrosse. After scoring a goal last weekend and having his story told on the ESPN broadcast, fans have been showing their love by purchasing his jersey ❤️

Cheers to George T. Stagg, who was born this day in 1835. After the Civil War, he and Col. EH Taylor bought the OFC Distillery (now Buffalo Trace). Sip some George T Stagg or Stagg Jr bourbon, if you can find it!

As an honorary member of the PAC, I feel the need to say this:
If Jeanty doesn’t win the Heisman after rushing for 2000 yards and 30 TDs & leading his team to the CFP, the award has lost all meaning and purpose
Especially when he loses it to a media hyped showman who’s #1 stat is “snaps played”
It’s really bad that it’s even a conversation
One of the most important skills I see in successful (and good) people is to constantly reevaluate assumptions. They make predictions based on various inputs, some of them unknown, and reevaluate based on what they got right and wrong. They trust people not because they're always right--no one is--but because if you're constantly seeking the truth it's easy to identify those who are doing the same.
If you were confident that Donald J. Trump was going to lose, maybe you should question what else you "know" about him. Maybe the people who misled you about his electoral chances have misled you about other things.
In the words of Cormac McCarthy, "If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?"
