@BoCamaro Perhaps it’s HPylori. That is common and very treatable!

So, just an update on my daughter, for all those following, everything was clear with the scopes except she has quite a bit of inflammation in her stomach. They took biopsies to see if they can figure out why. Now we wait. Follow up in 2 weeks. But at least we know WHERE the issue is. Now we just have to figure out why. Thanks for all pf the prayers. Please keep them coming. Hopefully it is just an allergy or something they can clear up with simple medicine.

@Meika_Mashack Totally! I don’t pretend to understand it all, and when I have listened to the experts in the field, I can’t land anywhere that seems right. What DO I know? VFL isn’t “for life.” Jahmai, JJJ, ZZ are some of the last. 😭

I realllly want to answer msgs and talk abt the transfer portal- talk why players are transferring, pre draft info for parents, and NIL but.....there's just SO many things going on globally. Does anyone else feel like their head is spinning, esp today?

@BoCamaro You are PREACHING! I love it

Wanna hear some hard truth that will make somepeople VERY MAD that I speak it????? Jesus didn't say, "Stop drinking and come to me." He didn't say, "put down the needle and come to me" He didn't say, "Stop being gay and come to me." He didn't say, "Stop sleeping around and come to me" He didn't say, "Stop hurting yourself and come to me" He didn't say, "Stop hating yourself and come to me." What did he say then? In Matthew Chapter 11 he made it clear as day... “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Notice his FIRST WORDS were "COME TO ME".... these rest of it happens after that. If you are trying to fight your battles to become perfect before coming to Christ, you will never get there. And he knew that. He is telling you to bring it all to him. All of it. Lay it at his feet and he will help you. He will help you put that needle down. He will help you pour that bottle out. He will help you learn to love yourself and heal that emptiness that you need to fill with whatever vice it may be. He will help you deal with terrible sin from you past. He will help you learn to love yourself. Modern religion has twisted his words to make it feel as though you have to be perfectly clean to enter his house, and maybe you do to entire THEIR house... But Jesus spoke those words for you to hear. Plain as day. Do not fear bringing it to him. He is waiting for you to give but a single ounce of faith. He will take the rest. I drove a few miles and walked into church without even a dollar store Bible in my dirty hands, and he grabbed ahold of me and took it ALL away. He hasn't let go since. I wake up thinking about him and what has happened. I go to bed thinking about him and what has happened. I took one step, and he took the WORLD off of me. I gave an inch, and he gave me his KINGDOM. Take that step, if you feel you need it. A better life is on the other foot.

@FOXSportsKnox How long until the commits de-commit? This is history for sure. The ugly kind.

BREAKING: Lady Vols guard Talaysia Cooper is entering the transfer portal “I will always have love and respect for Tennessee and everything this program stands for,” posted Cooper. The six-foot guard averaged 16 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 3.6 assists in 2025 for the #LadyVols The South Carolina transfer spent three seasons on Rocky Top and joined the 1,000 career point club earlier this season. Huge loss for Kim Caldwell.

@BoCamaro THIS!! I love this sooo much. My heart is so full that you have chosen our Christ. You will NEVER, EVER, regret this. Preach on my brother!

Let's write a little bit... This week is Easter. It will be my first Easter as a saved man. It will be my first Easter since I was a child that I will be in a church. Over the years I have studied all the reasons Christians shouldn't celebrate Easter. It's Pagan, they say. It's about the rebirth of the world. The coming of Spring. The flowers blooming. It's about fertility. It's why we use the Easter Bunny, which has one of the shortest gestational periods of all animals, and the Easter Egg.... It's about the celebration of love, I used to argue... Oh, I can go on for days about how Christians ripped off the Pagans for the holiday... I know it all.... I can refute any Christian argument for a logical debate. You see, I can speak all the logical reasons why Easter isn't Christian. Satan made sure, in my weakest moment, that he fully armed me to fight Christians, word for word.... Yet here I stand.... a new Christian excited to celebrate with my family and my friends for the first time ever? Why??? Because no bunny died for me on a cross on Calvary. No egg was painted for my sins to be washed away. Tonight, I read the book of John from chapter 14 through the end. I read about him being betrayed. I read about Peter denying him 3 times before the rooster crowed. I read about Pilate basically telling Jesus to just recant his own words and he could be free. And I read about Jesus refusing to do so. I read about him being beaten with a lead tipped whip. I read about them crucifying him. And as I was reading, I thought to myself, "Where was his deciples? Where were the people he healed and that followed him? How could they just leave him there?", and I thought to myself, "If I were there......." and then I had a real conversation with myself... I denied Christ for years. Thousands of times, but I want to pass blame on Peter for doing it 3 times? I think I would be some super hero for Jesus when I won't even pray out loud in a restaurant as to not offend those non-believers around me? I just sit there in silence like I am ashamed to mention his name? Tonight, Jesus basically said, "You would deny me over and over again... and that is ok. You are just a man." And that's where my mind is tonight as I sit here alone in my thoughts. I look forward to this weekend. I look forward to celebrating the sacrifice that Christ made for me. I look forward to watching the children search for those colorful eggs, and getting their Easter baskets, even though I know whay they mean... Because Salvation is something no Pagan God could provide and we really are, after all, celebrating LOVE.... The greatest love that has ever been given.... and for that... I am finally truly....thankful.

Let’s hear @Volatile_1998 guys hash this one out— my 2 cents: the right take.

@PeteThamel Tennessee Tech didn’t even make their conference tournament and fired their coach. It was Tennessee State bro

@RaineyVoI Choked on their whistles in the first half then couldn’t hear themselves enough all of a sudden

All of a sudden the fouls are being called!!???

@Mr_Rutherford I literally was hoping we could make it to 32. Love to see it! Lesss go get em

Give a listen to Joe trying to justify his (bad) take on Jaylen. Also does Nate play this Saturday, sit out the SEC tourney to be ready for the Dance? Worth your time!

This aged like ice cream on hot pavement. If I take it back will he be healthy and never be out of the game again?

@BoCamaro We don’t know each other but I have followed you for a long time as a VFL. This brings joy to my core. Praise God from whom all blessings flow! Praying for people around you to come along side and guide you in your walk with Christ. Angels are rejoicing!

If someone told me what I am about to tell you a year ago, I would have called it a fairytale. I went to church this morning with my friend Joe. He had invited me months ago and I called him last night to ask if Holly and I could attend with him today. He said he would be honored. He said Bible Study was at 10 and service was at 11 and he sent me the address to Victory Baptist Church in Bristol. When we arrived this morning, we were greeted by so many people and everyone was asking if we were "Joe's friends". We felt welcomed immediately. They led us to the Bible Study group and the leader said, "We have studying Psalms". The same Psalms that led me through the doors of a church for the first time in nearly 3 decades, a week ago. I felt that was a sign I was in the right place. Through the rest of the service, I felt like it was time. Time to commit. Time to turn my life over to him. But when the alter call came, I couldn't go. I just didn't feel worthy, as I have wrestled with for forever. All those people. So pretty and neat. So I didn't go. After the service, Joe asked me to speak with his Pastor, who wanted to thank us for coming, and I said I was happy to meet him. And then it happened. He thanked me for coming and he asked if I knew that Jesus died for my sins. I responded that I have been working on understanding, and then he shook me to my core. You see, I know 1 verse from the Bible by heart. Only 1. I remembered it from my youth because of a song. Romans 10:9 - "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." That's it. That's the 1 verse I know. I know what others say, but I can't quote it. I don't know where it is at. But I know that one. His next words to me? He asked me if I knew Romans and he recited that verse. The only verse I knew by heart, word for word. That was my proof. That was my evidence that today was the day. I stopped him mid verse as I broke down in tears and asked him to pray with me and he led me to the Alter with Joe and several others that I'm not yet sure of their name. Today, I confessed with my mouth, the Lord Jesus.... and I came up a saved man. Today was the day. Today. It happened. I have no idea what to do next or where it goes.... but today, I can say that thank God, I am not where I once was..... but I am NOW where I am. To everyone that has worked on me for years now. Thank you. Thank you for not giving up even when my words were hateful. I didn't know what I didn't know. I still don't, honestly.... But I am not that man today. Today was a great day.

Between the Super Bowl and the Olympics, I think this needs to be said. 👇👇👇

Sure would be nice to watch the next game @ESPN

2/6 from the FT line completely negates any 5 ⭐️ talent potential. You don’t win games if you don’t hit your free throws. If you don’t do your part you shouldn’t play.

@Russell___Smith Can’t agree more. I DO NOT CARE how Kevin Durant-esque Ament is. When he can’t make foul shots what makes him necessary? (Among other issues) I know he is a great kid but buddy gotta produce

Our best five are Carey, Okpara, Evans, Boswell and Gillespie…haven’t heard we ever seen this lineup on the floor together?
