There is a thin line between trust and naïvetè, and that line is called benefit of the doubt. -- @KenCostlow, 2010

So many memories in my career but getting the chance to be on the call for my alma mater’s national championship is right up there at the top. #goblue

@sydneyy_taylor I do.

Be honest… do men still find women without tattoos attractive these days?

🚨 MAJOR NEWS: Pope Leo XIV just declared the Iran War unjust. Called it a war crime. Said it is “not solving anything.” And told Americans directly — call Congress. End this war.

You're making me cry...

@Kristinartz Yes

My husband says I'm imagining things... but does anyone else remember a diet soda called TAB?

The lights shone bright at Durham Bulls Athletic Park as Dom Keegan stepped to the plate. In the on-deck circle, Champ the Bat Dog sat perfectly still, eyes locked on home plate. Ears perked. Muscles coiled. The young black Lab was in the zone—no distractions, no wagging tail, just pure focus. Keegan dug in. First pitch: foul. Bat spun in the dirt. Champ didn’t flinch. Strike two. Another swing and miss. Still locked in. Finally, Keegan crushed a line drive. The bat dropped. Champ exploded forward, snatched the bat in his jaws, and trotted back with pride as the crowd roared. Another flawless retrieve from the ultimate teammate. Champ the Bat Dog: locked in, every time. 🐶⚾️♥️🐾

The beginning of Ian and Raft's friendship ♥️

Bingo.

Historic! This is the highest quality video ever taken of the moon!

Reid Wiseman told his two teenage daughters where to find his will before he got on this rocket. He’s raised them alone since their mom died of cancer six years ago. Right now, he is 252,757 miles from home, farther from Earth than any human being has ever been. Wiseman grew up outside Baltimore. Got rejected from the Naval Academy, went to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute instead, studied computer engineering. Became a Navy fighter pilot, flew F-14 Tomcats (the jet from Top Gun) on combat missions over Iraq and Afghanistan. Two Middle East deployments by his mid-twenties. He saw a Space Shuttle launch in person in 2001 and couldn’t let go of it. Applied to NASA while at sea on the aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower. They picked him. Nine people out of 3,500 applicants. His astronaut class, nicknamed “The Chumps,” included Jeremy Hansen, the Canadian who’s floating next to him right now. Wiseman’s first trip to space was 165 days on the Space Station in 2014. Two spacewalks. Thirteen hours outside the hull in nothing but a suit. He climbed all the way up to Chief of the Astronaut Office, the person who decides which astronauts fly and which ones sit. Then he gave it up in 2022 to put himself back on the flight list. His wife Carroll was a nurse in a newborn intensive care unit. She got cancer. Fought it five years. Died in May 2020 at 46. His mother died from Alzheimer’s just weeks before that. Wiseman raised both daughters by himself after that. NASA’s own bio says he considers being a single parent his hardest challenge and the best part of his life. Even while she was dying, Carroll told Reid not to step back from his career. She made him keep going. His brother is a Navy SEAL. His father is 83 and battling cancer too. The old man told reporters he wanted to stay alive long enough to see his son launch. Before liftoff, Wiseman’s daughters snuck homemade cookies into his flight bag. He posted a photo with them in front of the rocket and wrote “I’m boarding that rocket a very proud father.” The previous distance record from Earth belonged to the Apollo 13 crew. 248,655 miles, set in April 1970, and it was an accident. An oxygen tank blew up and the emergency route home happened to swing them farther out than anyone before. Wiseman broke that record by 4,100 miles, and his distance is on purpose. Today he flies within 4,600 miles of the Moon, photographs stretches of the far side that were too dark or at the wrong angle for any of the 24 Apollo astronauts to see, and watches a solar eclipse that nobody on Earth can see, only the four people inside that capsule. Then he turns around and spends four days flying home to his girls.

If this play doesn't win an #ESPY for Play of the Year, I cannot imagine what else would. @espn @ESPYS
