"Only Jesus comes to save us, and no one else: because only he has the power…” - Pope Leo XIV (Aug 25, 2025)

Robert Muller was a major force in making America safe after September 11th. May he rest in peace.

Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives. But it was his relentless commitment to the rule of law and his unwavering belief in our bedrock values that made him one of the most respected public servants of our time. Michelle and I send our condolences to Bob’s family, and everyone who knew and admired him.

Sending condolences to the family of Robert Mueller. A combat veteran and patriot who served our country and stood for the values we all share as Americans. Rest in peace.

@BDStan True statement! It’s difficult for the assistants too! Most don’t get a nice buyout!

Everyone reaches out when a Head Coach gets a job - either congratulations or wanting a position on staff Few reach out when a Head Coach is let go Until you’re through it, you don’t know how much it means & the impact it makes hearing from others in the hard times

I had a great time interviewing @CoachTKAINE! Appreciate his candidness and transparency about his career. A lot of coaches are hesitant or afraid to pivot careers - the advice will resonate with a ton on coaches out there!

Una sera di ottobre del 1994, John F. Kennedy Jr. entrò in un piccolo ristorante italiano nel sud di Manhattan e fece qualcosa che il proprietario, Giovanni Russo, disse di non aver mai dimenticato. Vedendo che tutti i tavoli erano occupati e che una giovane cameriera, alla sua prima sera di lavoro, era sopraffatta e sull’orlo delle lacrime, John chiese con discrezione se potesse aiutare a sparecchiare finché la situazione non si fosse calmata. Giovanni raccontò in seguito al New York Times di aver provato a rifiutare con gentilezza: “Signor Kennedy, lei è un ospite, si accomodi e le troverò un tavolo.” Ma John sorrise, si rimboccò le maniche e rispose: “Ho lavorato in un ristorante durante la facoltà di legge e ricordo quanto possa essere spaventosa la prima sera. Lasci che aiuti.” Per i successivi quarantacinque minuti sparecchiò tavoli, riempì bicchieri d’acqua e fece battute per tranquillizzare la cameriera, Maria Sanchez. Quando il momento di punta finì, rifiutò il pasto gratuito offertogli da Giovanni e lasciò invece una mancia di cento dollari con un biglietto: “Per Maria — stai andando benissimo, e diventa più facile, te lo prometto.” Maria, che in seguito divenne direttrice di ristorante, tenne quel biglietto incorniciato in ogni locale in cui lavorò per venticinque anni. Nel 2004 disse a un giornalista: “Quella sera il signor Kennedy mi ha insegnato che la vera classe non riguarda dove ti siedi, ma accanto a chi scegli di stare quando le cose si fanno difficili.” Giovanni ricordava soprattutto una frase di John, detta mentre usciva: “Mia madre mi ha sempre detto che il modo in cui tratti le persone quando nessuno di importante ti sta guardando dice tutto su chi sei davvero.” Un promemoria che il vero carattere emerge nei piccoli gesti invisibili, quando scegliamo il servizio invece dello status.

Leo XIV: “When you feel alone, remember that God never abandons you. His companionship becomes the strength to take the first step towards those who are alone, yet are right beside you. Everyone remains alone if they look only at themselves. Drawing close to one’s neighbour, instead, allows you to become an image of what God is for you. As He brings hope into your life, so you too can share it with others. You will then find yourselves together as seekers of communion and fraternity.”

"My mom once told me that she walked into a room where a couple of friends were discussing her, they didn’t know she was there. She shook her head, smiled and walked away. My mom also told me that she had a friend who spoke badly about her. She never knew that Mom found out, because Mom never mentioned it. She smiled and walked away from this friendship. She told me she had family who chose to shift her out of their lives, because she stood up for herself and stopped crossing oceans for them, when they wouldn't even cross a bridge for her. She smiled, shook her head and walked away. So I asked her how she could just walk away from people who betrayed her while pretending to be her friends or family? She answered that every time she came to a crossroad like that, she had to decide who would be going forward on her journey with her. This showed her who she could take with her and who she could not. She explained to me that you should never waste your energy being angry with a person who betrays you, even in the name of friendship or family. Just gracefully bow out and enjoy your journey with all of the new people God puts in their place." ✍️ Unknown Artist: Sylvia Jackson

Dang, I’m really starting to like Cignetti. I never did understand coaches bragging about working from 4 AM until 11 PM. Like, in what world is that healthy…or even necessary? Major props to Cig.

Parents: Your kids have a .000001% of playing a professional sport Yet through sports done the right way, your kids have a 100% chance of building resiliency, learning life lessons, developing relationships & gaining confidence Sports done the right way are the ultimate teacher

"Any high school coach telling your kid that they can't play multiple sports is telling you that because it's in their best interest. The second that coach tells you that, you should be out."@gregolsen88 You're not just taking away the sport. You're taking away the memories.
