Matt Suhey passed away yesterday.
He was my dad’s closest friend. After we lost my dad in 1999, Matt became the biggest father figure I had. When everything felt uncertain, he was there. My dad left him in charge and Matt never let that responsibility sit lightly. He protected our family. He looked after us. He made sure we were okay, year after year, without ever making it about himself.
That is who he was.
Their friendship showed me what real friendship looks like. Not the easy kind. The kind that lasts when the lights go off, when the stadium is empty, when life gets heavy. Brian’s Song told the story of Piccolo and Sayers. Somebody needs to tell the story of 34 and 26. Two men who trusted each other completely. Two men who became brothers.
I know @walterpayton was standing there waiting for him the second he got to heaven. I can see it. That smile. That hug. That reunion they both deserved.
Our family is so thankful for the love he showed us over the years. The Payton family will continue to lift Donna, Joey, Allison, and Scotty up in prayer during this difficult time.
Rest easy, Uncle Matt. We love you. We always will. 🙏🏽🐻⬇️

I went down and spoke to Joshua Báez's girlfriend after his third HR. Asked her if she could've ever imagined this happening.
She told me, "It's what he does, he hit's home runs."
Very, very kind. And the family/friends, which are occupying three rows of seats at Wrigley, was overjoyed as a whole.
Rocky began as a script about one man's struggle, but five decades later, it has become a global symbol of perseverance that transcends borders. As we celebrate America 250, people still show up to run those same steps Rocky ran in 1976, all 72 of them.

Need to express my deep sadness at the passing of Jim Anixter. He was a tried and true #Cubs fan to the very end. Saw him only once in 2026. 6-7 years ago I was sitting close on Opening Day, so I made myself go shake his hand. Couldn't have been nicer. Then he sent this over:
It is with a heavy heart that one of the most legendary #Cubs fans has passed away. Jim Anixter aka “The Pink Hat Guy” died yesterday. A season ticket holder for 60 years, Jim was always seen in his trademark pink hat in the first row behind home plate.

Hey @GovPritzker, how’s it feel being the Illinois Governor who officially LOST the Chicago Bears?
Your record taxes, crime policies & billionaire hypocrisy just chased the greatest franchise in NFL history across the border to Indiana.
Congrats, JB — even the Bears couldn’t stomach another decade of Pritzker failure.

Hammond
- ZERO taxes for 40 years
- $1B funds from IN for stadium
- $700M from IN for infrastructure
Arlington

Kathleen Thomas was issued a citation in February after a Palm Beach County Sheriff's deputy pulled her over for allegedly using a phone with her right hand. But Thomas doesn't have a right hand. This week, the officer requested that the citation be dismissed.
Here's bodycam footage of the traffic stop.
