I’m in love with this sentence: “Consistency looks like nothing is happening, until everything changes.”

BREAKING: Golden Tempo wins the Kentucky Derby after coming from dead last His rider, Jose Ortiz, is a devout Christian and shared this Bible verse before the race “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” Nothing is impossible with God. ✝️

When you realize that Jesus fed 5,000, but only 500 followed him after the meal. He had 12 disciples, but only 3 went farther into the garden, and only 1 stood by him at the cross. The closer you get to the cross, the smaller the crowd becomes.

My son came home from karate with a white belt. I asked what it meant. He said: "You know nothing. You have an opportunity to learn everything." That stopped me cold. I was an MLB manager at the time. Most leaders confuse experience with wisdom. They've "seen it all" so they stop listening, stop asking, stop being curious. But the leaders who last longest never stop being students. They have the White Belt Mentality. Here are 3 principles of the White Belt Mentality. Principle 1: Approach every room like you have something to learn. The moment you walk in thinking you already have the answers, you've lost. • Ask more questions than you give answers • Seek out people who challenge your thinking • Be the first to say "I don't know but let's figure it out together" The leaders who stay curious outlast the ones who think they've arrived. Principle 2: Your team will teach you. When I was managing the Pirates, my best ideas didn't come from strategy sessions. They came from conversations with players, coaches, and support staff who were closest to the problem. I had to listen, not just wait to talk. Actually listen. People tell you exactly what they need, if you're willing to hear it. Principle 3: Build habits that force you to keep growing. Staying a white belt isn't an attitude, it's a daily practice. • Carry a journal and write down what you learn, not just what you do • Spend a few months learning from one voice, book, or mentor, and then follow the seeds to the next • Seek out people who tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear The best leaders in any room aren't the ones with the most experience. They're the ones still acting like they have the most to learn.

I’m trying to fix my life, but I’m not going to try to tough guy it alone, I need help desperately. Yes I need help. I’m doing my best to do everything possible to make things right, but I’m failing alone. I’m praying to God Almighty to send me a miracle & heal my broken heart

ATTN: All HS Baseball players Before you (or your parents or travel ball coach) tells everyone you’re only interested in D1… Go to a D2, D3, NAIA or JUCO game. (especially in the post-season). I promise your eyes will open and maybe some more doors.

“I can’t believe in you more than you believe in yourself.” That’s what Coach Angel told Jacob Moran midway through this season when things weren’t clicking. He went on to become a 2026 NCAA All-American. Sometimes one conversation changes everything. Full interview on YouTube now. youtu.be/OUG57ltDYBU

Sunday night reminder.... Monday hasn't been canceled. Embrace it. Successful, goal oriented people, attack each day the same. Don't focus on the problems. Focus on the solutions. Every week starts with Monday....💪🏻 #WordsofChizdom

The Bengals went years rarely taking OL swings in the middle rounds and when they did, missing badly. Last year, Dylan Fairchild was one of the most successful mid-round OL picks in more than a decade for the Bengals. They might have found something with OL coach Scott Peters focus. They take another run at it with Connor Lew, whose wrestling background stands out as a connection to Peters.

3 Offensive Line prospects that fit Scott Peters “Tip of the Spear”/Wrestling Background mold C Connor Lew - Auburn (6-3 310) - Strong wrestling background that shows with his grip strength and hand placement. Solid anchor vs bull rush. Still young (20 years old). Recovering from ACL injury. (3rd/4th round) G/T Gennings Dunker - Iowa (6-5 319) - Aggressive blocker with a wrestling background. Large heavy hands that are inconsistent at times. Great anchor but plays a little upright. (2/3 round) T Blake Miller - Clemson (6-7 315) - Great mover with long arms (34+), needs some technical refinement in a lot of areas, but has that nasty streak you look for in OL play. Wrestling background. Fought through injuries and rarely missed games. (Late 1/early 2 round)

The gap isn’t talent. It’s commitment when you don’t feel like it. "Once your commitment is greater than your feelings, that's when you get results." - Mike Bianco That’s the separator. Period. 🏆 x.com/baseball_coach…

I’m in love with this sentence: “Discipline looks boring until you see what it builds.”

It’s interesting how often nonbelievers point to hell as if it’s some kind of threat or proof that God isn’t loving — as if God created hell to extort people into obedience. But the irony is… hell is actually the very thing many people say they want. Hell is the absence of God. No holiness. No accountability. No boundaries. No One to answer to. For some, that sounds like freedom. It sounds like the life they’re already trying to live — doing whatever they want, whenever they want, with no one telling them otherwise. So where’s the “threat”? It’s the very thing they’ve been asking for. But here’s the part people don’t think through: If you remove God, you also remove everything that flows from Him — goodness, truth, beauty, love, peace, joy, faithfulness, self control, purpose, meaning. None of that exists apart from Him. What’s left is everyone endlessly acting on their desires, no matter the cost or who gets hurt. A world without God isn’t liberation. It’s collapse. Some might call that torment. Some might call it justice. But it’s simply the natural end of a life that says, “I don’t want God.” And if you pay attention, the people who chase that kind of life right now — the rich, the powerful, the famous, the ones who “have it all” — they’re never satisfied. It’s an unquenchable thirst. A hunger that never leaves. The difference is: in this life, there’s still an escape. Still a chance to turn around. Still grace. In hell, there won’t be. So my advice is simple: be careful what you ask for. Really think about what it means. You can choose to be your own god and spend eternity feeding desires that will never fill you… or you can die to yourself, surrender to the God who surrendered Himself for you, and finally taste what Jesus called the bread of life and living water. One path is endless wanting. The other is everlasting life.

My last match was in 2019. Since then my entire life has revolved around BASE jumping and travel. 7 years later, I'm wrestling Olympic Gold Medalists. I've always felt my results in this sport never matched how good I was & @rafwrestlingusa has given me the chance to prove that.
