This is one of the most jaw-dropping, chilling interviews I have seen. Watch this Rabbi from London, respond to question about the terror stabbing in Golders Green!

The Hawks can still beat the Knicks in Georgia if Mike Pence has the courage

double dipping in Bloomington

If you pitched this as a screenplay, every studio would reject it for being too on-the-nose. Fernando Mendoza was a 2-star recruit ranked 2,149th in his high school class. Zero FBS scholarship offers. Not one. He walked on at Cal, fought for a starting job, transferred to Indiana for his senior year, then led them to 16-0 and the first national title in school history. Heisman, Walter Camp, Maxwell, Davey O'Brien, Manning, Big Ten MVP. 41 TDs, 72% completion, 8-to-0 TD-to-INT ratio in the playoffs. The Raiders took him #1 overall Thursday night. $54.56M fully guaranteed. Only the third player ever to win the Heisman, win a national championship, and go first overall the next spring. Burrow. Newton. Mendoza. Then he skipped Pittsburgh. The biggest stage in football, the moment every kid imagines from the second they pick up a ball, and Fernando watched the call from his living room in Florida because his mom Elsa is in a wheelchair and the travel is hard for her. She was diagnosed with MS when he was 4. She wrote a letter to her sons in The Players Tribune in 2015 promising the disease "won't affect us in the ways that matter." The part nobody talks about: while every other top pick was on stage, Fernando announced the Mendoza Family Fund the same day. $500K personal donation to the National MS Society. Committed to raising $1M over three years. He hasn't taken an NFL snap and he's already given more to a cause than most players donate in a full career. He and his brother Alberto have already raised $360K through the Mendoza Bros. Burger at BuffaLouie's in Bloomington. At Christmas, he handed four families dealing with MS $10,000 each for an Adidas shopping spree. Both his parents are children of Cuban refugees who fled Castro. His dad rowed at Brown, won a Junior World Championship in 1987, and played high school football in Miami next to a teammate named Mario Cristobal. Fernando beat his dad's old teammate in the national championship game in January. Every athlete talks about playing for their family. Fernando actually did it.

@MattGlenesk ughhh

God: Indiana fans, we're going to let you win a football national championship. IU fans: Fantastic! What will it cost us? God: Braylon Mullins vs. Dusty May for a national championship... in Indy.

Curt Cignetti is truly a national treasure

New York is about to make a massive mistake. The NY State Senate is advancing a proposal to decouple from federal QSBS (Section 1202) — the tax provision that lets startup founders exclude gains on qualifying exits. If this passes, founders would owe 10-13% in combined state and city tax on exits that are tax-free at the federal level and in nearly every other major tech state. Even worse: it's retroactive to January 1, 2025. This comes right as the federal government just expanded QSBS benefits and New Jersey moved to full conformity. New York wants to go in the opposite direction. As a seed investor in NYC who has backed hundreds of companies, I can tell you: founders are mobile. If New York becomes one of the most punitive states for startup exits, the best founders will simply build somewhere else — and the jobs, tax revenue, and innovation will follow. NYC has built something special over the last two decades. This proposal puts it all at risk for a short-sighted revenue grab. If you're a founder, investor, or anyone who cares about the NYC tech ecosystem — please sign the TechNYC open letter before Monday below 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾 Keep building, NYC 🗽

@amydelmanpr Thank you, Amy! #EssexCountyStrong

Happy Friday! Today's #FeatureFriday is @FastTash your amazing content makes you the perfect #FeatureFriday.

@ZachOsterman @michaelniziolek Google me, I win championships. And let's not forget the correlation and impact of a championship team on other university revenue streams. Hint: enrollment.

Source tells me and @michaelniziolek Curt Cignetti has agreed a new contract worth an average of $13.2 million per year. Deal still runs through 2033. Cignetti one of three coaches (Kiffin, Kirby) with a known contract of $13 million-plus: indystar.com/story/sports/c… #iufb

Fernando said he works out at Planet Fitness now because Cignetti kicked him out of the football facilities. "We're getting ready for the new team."😂#iufb youtu.be/TtbFOObj2LE?t=…

Archie Manning on Fernando Mendoza winning the Manning Award: “We had a great group of quarterbacks in college football this year. I’d like to tell you this was close, but it wasn’t.” #iufb

@martypieratt @IUBloomington @IndianaFootball Reminds me of running to kirkwood in 02! @joshweinfuss

What it was like when I stepped out on Kirkwood Avenue @IUBloomington seconds after @IndianaFootball won the #CFBPlayoff & became college champions of the world. #iufb

Indiana is now global....

Fernando Mendoza just made a LinkedIn post about winning the national championship, and it's the best post on the platform I've ever seen.
