At @KCTheKid7 you are an inspiration. Just wanted to say how proud I am of you. Hope you’re everything God has planned for you to become. As someone who has stuttered/stammered since age 5 I know firsthand all you’ve went through and overcome. Well done young man. 1/2

Mel Gibson, after losing his Malibu home in the devastating January 2025 LA fires, opens up with raw faith:

"I feel like I'm being stripped down and prepared for something else... I feel like the Almighty is preparing me to do something big."

He reflects: God gives, God takes—we enter and leave with nothing. But "seek first the kingdom of God, and you'll always be okay. You'll get what you need."

Echoing his dad's favorite passage (Matthew 6): "Look at the flowers of the field... look at the birds of the air. They get fed. They get clothed." Stop worrying about stuff—it's all temporary.

In the interview, he sees the loss as a strange blessing: a purification, freeing him to focus on bigger callings (like his upcoming Resurrection of the Christ sequel).

A powerful reminder that sometimes what feels like total loss is actually preparation.

In tough times, have you ever felt stripped down—only to discover it cleared the way for something meaningful? What's one "stripped away" moment that led to growth or purpose for you?

Shaquille O’Neal said, “My stepdad was a Sergeant in the Army, a serious and strong man of character. We had an excellent relationship...

I once played at Madison Square Garden against the New York Knicks in my first season in the NBA.

I had a terrible game.

Afterward, he called me and asked why I played so badly.

He wondered if it was the pressure of facing Patrick Ewing and the Knicks. I told him I felt pressure.

He said, ‘Tomorrow, I want you home at 7:00 AM. Pick me up. We’re going to see a family that has no home.’

On the way, we encountered a family in need.

My stepdad stopped, gave them money for their next meal, and said,

"That’s pressure. You have everything; you’re weak. There’s no pressure in playing basketball and earning millions of dollars. Real pressure is felt by those who don’t know when or where their next meal will come from."

He told me to get out and help that family.

I got out and saw a man with his wife and two children who had just lost their home.

The man was looking for work. He told me he was cutting grass.

I called a friend and asked him to get this man a job.

I called another friend and said I needed an apartment for a family of four, promising to send a check the next day. They needed help.

After that, I never felt pressure in a basketball game again because that family had real pressure.”

Jose Ramirez breaks silence on signing below market extension from Guardians;

(Translation by Master Flip)

That was ultimately my decision, to take the extension. We went through a year and a half of negotiations, and when I finally signed, I got a significant salary bump. I knew it wasn’t fully reflective of my market value, and plenty of people made sure to point that out. But I’m a veteran, I understand how the game works.
Cleveland is a small market team, and they simply can’t pay me what I could command on the open market. So I told them, Let’s find a fair agreement that works for both sides.
I spoke directly with the GM. There were real trade discussions and offers from other teams willing to extend me at my full asking price, but my heart was set on staying in Cleveland. First and foremost, my children were born here. My wife feels comfortable in Cleveland and so do I. I owe this city a lot.
Since the day I arrived, I’ve never once been booed by these fans. I’ve seen how crowds in other stadiums treat players when results don’t come quickly, and that’s never happened here.

Joe Burrow’s presser today felt very reflective — and at times, a bit dark:

"If I want to keep doing this, I have to have fun doing it. I have been through a lot. If it's not fun, then what am I doing it for?"

Later on: "There's just a lot of things going on right now."

Titans Jeffery Simmons on Shedeur Sanders postgame:

"That's his team now, he's gonna be a star in this league, he's already a star in this league."

High praise from one of the leagues best defensive players. #Browns

So incredibly grateful for the love and respect shown to Bryce and his family by the Cavs. Because of him, I was given a second chance at life and the opportunity to serve others in a meaningful way. This is only the beginning.
U Matter.
