Pat McAfee@PatMcAfeeShow·
Please help @MrsMcAfeeShow, Mackenzie, and I welcome Midas Robert McAfee to our family.. Due to Samantha having a high risk pregnancy and severe preeclampsia, the decision was made to have an emergency C-Section on Friday night. Baby boy officially entered the world on May 22nd at 10:42PM as a 6lb 6oz screaming young legend… 10 Toes, 10 Fingers, full head of hair. Literally in his first moments of life, Midas was working... He was able to get his O2 Levels high enough to be able to come hang with us in our room and because of that we got to do all of the immediate magical newborn moments.. Skin to skin, 10,000 kisses, tons of love, all of that.. inevitably, since he came into the world at 36 Weeks (40 is full term), he had to develop his lungs a little bit more, get some fluid out of him, and adjust a bit to life outside of Sam’s stomach.. So, he was sent to the NICU to help the transition from the womb to the world. As mom was recovering like a badass from the mind boggling C-Section surgery, little dude was DAHN the hall.. They put a CPAP on our guy, a feeding tube, and put him in a heated pod with a heating lamp to help him develop a bit more. There wasn’t much I could do other than bring positive vibes as I bounced back and forth between the 2. Watching Samantha battle thru her recovery has been nothing short of inspiring, WE APPRECIATE YOU @MrsMcAfeeShow, I will be sure that our kids will know how much you went thru for them.. And every time I went and saw boy, I couldn’t help but fantasize about what his life could become.. So many dreams and opportunities waiting for this young stud. We had a sneaky suspicion that he was a dawg and a fighter but, it is a bit scary to see your baby hooked up to so many “very serious” things.. He ended up staying roughly 36 hours in the NICU before being released back to our room… a FULL CELEBRATION occured. We’ve been floating around this room.. sleeping and burping and feeding and changing diapers ever since. We’re looking to get back home to our 3 year old baby girl today or tomorrow. We can’t wait for her to meet her baby brother.. Her grandparents have been doing a PHENOMENAL job of keeping her informed and also distracted while we’ve been living in this hospital.. we are VERY THANKFUL for them. The name “Midas” has been the name I’d hoped to name my baby boy, if I was to ever have kids, since my Freshman year of high school when Mrs Nonnenberg (RIP Legend) taught me about Greek Mythology.. Like most, when you come from not a lot, the thought of everything you touch becoming gold was certainly an immediate draw for me but in this world that we live in, gold can only come from working your ass off, getting lucky, and having great folks around you. The name is perfect for the boy that Sam and I would like to raise. He will be an asset to society, he will treat folks right, and he will work his ass off to help his community achieve their own form of “gold.” “Robert” is a tribute to Samantha’s dad and best friend.. A man that we lost way too soon a couple of years back and will now live on forever thru Mighty Midas. Midas will know his grandfather thru our stories and pictures.. and we know Bob will be looking out for Midas for all of time. So on this Memorial Day we say Thank You to those who gave everything to this country that we call home.. and we will use their stories as guidance for our young boy about a life lived right. We Love You Midas… Welcome to the McAfee family. We will do everything we can for you, brother. p.s. Midas has already watched the closest Indy 500 of all time. The Vegas Golden Knights HUGE game 3 comeback… AND of course, Top Gun Maverick.

Kyle and I had a really challenging existence for many years. But we luckily took the time to figure out our differences and that was something he instigated with a conversation in his bus around how we each managed our racing teams. I was super eager for us to get on better terms. But it was he who made the effort for that to be possible. We did some media together also to laugh through some of the things we put each other through many years ago. Most recently we had even been discussing him running my Late Model at Wilkesboro this summer. He seemed extremely happy and we had planned to meet up next Thursday to get his seat to the shop. He laughed over the idea of his fans and JRM fans having to cheer in unison during that race. Kyle was one of the greatest drivers in NASCAR history. No one can deny that. But he was also a father, a husband, brother, son, and a friend to many. My heart is broken for the Busch family. I will never be able to make sense of this loss but I am thankful that we had found a way to become friends.

@sircalebhammer You of all people should know that people live where they can afford to live. Why buy a 20+ year old house at a 6.5%+ interest rate when you can buy a brand new house with a builder buying the rate down into the 4% range for less?

If legislators always vote with the President, we have a king. If legislators always vote with the prevailing wind, we have mob rule. If legislators always vote with the Constitution, we have a Republic.

@Gucia6666 @AgileJebrim @aknox92 @sircalebhammer You’re the one defaulting to talking points when the facts are clear that people are moving to the suburbs he’s mentioning due to the safety & affordability. Crime 8 hours away at the border has no effect on DFW burbs.

@AgileJebrim @aknox92 @sircalebhammer Can you actually read or do you default to talking points? I never said cities are safer (they're more dense, more demographically different etc). I said Texas is one of the least safest states in the country. Which it is.

@grok @DefiantLs So the scientist suggesting infecting the population with meat allergies via ticks to stop them from eating certain types of meat works in bioethics?? Lunacy

@MAC_Arms @joekent16jan19 @MAC_Arms your ss has no reference to this full-blown war though… You can take care of proxies without war w/Iran, without targeting Iranian leadership (who hadn’t pursued nuclear weapons - only uranium for self preservation), and without the damage to US allies/bases/economy.

One of the many tragedies of this war is that before the war began the U.S. Intel Community, including CIA, was in agreement that Iran wasn't developing a nuclear weapon & that Iran would target U.S. bases in the region & shut down the Strait of Hormuz if they were attacked by Israel & the U.S. The IC also properly assessed that targeting the Iranian leadership would strengthen the regime and embolden the hardliners. Despite the professionalism & accuracy of the IC, the narrative & agenda spun by a foreign government- Israel, won the argument & forced us into this war. We need to understand exactly how this happened to ensure we are never put in this position again.

@Broloccini @MaTTx414 @SlimBooter @Breaking911 Yup!!! And if an Artist decides to sign with a non Live Nation record company guess who doesn’t go on tours or get radio plays. Then they charge all sorts of fees and then even resellers have to pay crazy taxes. Like they own the whole thing. It’s been a monopoly before the merge

@SlimBooter @Breaking911 The problem with your statement is that Ticketmaster/Live Nation own a lot of the venues.

@Breaking911 Resellers in general are such a scam just to suck every last dollar out of people's pockets with fees. Whoever is running the venue should be the only source for the tickets. Ticketmaster is notoriously bad about their fees they tack on.

@datbig_HE @lilidgaf2 @ESPNMilwaukee @AdamSchefter Are you sure about that? No one's rushed to do it yet and a 7th means nothing if it's a 7. A veteran who knows JG's system, plays hard, and can help teach on the cheap can't hurt imo.
