19 years ago, a high school basketball coach put his team manager into a game for the final four minutes. The kid had never played a single minute of competitive basketball in his life. He scored 20 points. Jason McElwain was diagnosed with severe autism at age two. He didn’t speak until he was five. He couldn’t chew solid food until he was six. He wore a nappy for most of his early childhood. As a baby, he was rigid, wouldn’t make eye contact, and hid in corners away from other children. He tried out for his school basketball team every year and got cut every time. Too small. Too slight. Barely 5’6 and about 54 kilograms. But he loved the game so much that his mum called the school and asked if there was any way he could be involved. The coach created a team manager role for him. For three years, McElwain showed up to every practice and every game. He wore a shirt and tie on match days. He ran drills, handed out water, kept stats, and cheered every basket like he’d scored it himself. On 15 February 2006, the last home game of his final school year, the coach let him suit up in a proper jersey and sit on the bench. With four minutes left and a comfortable lead, the coach sent him in. His first shot missed. His second missed. Then something shifted. He hit a three-pointer. Then another. Then another. His teammates stopped shooting entirely and just kept passing him the ball. He hit six three-pointers and a two-pointer. 20 points in four minutes. The highest scorer in the game. When the final buzzer went, the entire crowd rushed the court and lifted him onto their shoulders. His mum tapped the coach on the shoulder, in tears. “This is the nicest gift you could have ever given my son.” McElwain won the ESPY Award for Best Moment in Sports that year, beating out some of the biggest names in professional sport. He’s 36 now. He works at a local supermarket, coaches basketball, has run 17 marathons including five Boston Marathons, and travels the country speaking about never giving up. When asked about that night, his coach still gets emotional. “For him to come in and seize the moment like he did was certainly more than I ever expected. I was an emotional wreck.”

✨ The Chris Paul Effect ✨ Every team that Chris Paul went to instantly got better. Each team won more games than the season prior. The positive impact that CP3 had on each of his teammates was remarkable.

New story. Andy Reid could see a reunion with Eric Bieniemy as a clear path for the Chiefs offense to once again become a top unit. Patrick Mahomes & Travis Kelce have always expressed their love & admiration for Bieniemy's coaching style, too. espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…

Words matter. Matt chose to use the word “wench” on purpose. “Wench” was used to describe enslaved women, usually of reproductive age who were enslaved by white men for sexual purposes. It is an insult beyond the pale and below anyone who believes in human dignity. Pure evil.

White people lined up by the millions to put this ungrateful wench and her despicable husband in the White House for two terms, and yet she hates white people even more now than she did before. Important lesson here.
