If you live where the grass is green and the rain is plentiful and have been wishing you could add to your cowherd... You are just moments away from seeing droughted out parts of the country begin to puke pairs.

Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

The things you notice after… 28 basketball games in the last four days: The most out-of-control people in the gym aren’t the players… It’s the adults in the stands. 😢 It’s alarming. It’s deafening. It’s saddening. Kids deserve better from the people who are supposed to be setting the example. 🏀 #weeklywisdom

No matter how talented you are, if you’re in the wrong environment, you won’t be valued.

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that Birth Control pills were given out like candy to Millennial teens and now IVF is over a 30 billion dollar market.

The real skill in life isn’t winning all the time, it’s forgetting fast. bad conversation, try again. stupid decision, new action. Most people are destroyed by replaying mistakes not making them. Don’t carry things you can’t redo anyway.

Now that I’m a Little League Dad an immediate observation is the psychotic new-age expectation of EVERY kid on the team having their own bat. 14 bats?! None of these kids can even hit. 🤦‍♂️

Nick Saban: "Everybody's smart that goes to medical school. But everybody doesn't make it through… It's the same kind of thing with athletes. Some of 'em have great talent but they don't have the right psychological disposition." Mindset Matters🔥.

I cannot believe you and I pay the glamorous salaries of fully grown adults who refuse to sit in a room with a guy they don't like

Some of you need to touch some grass

@CohenSite You're describing small towns in Kansas.

Why aren't American developers building high density "country clubs"? 15-30 acres, 3000+ homes. Large park, sports fields, wellness activities. Grocery store & restaurants. On-site elementary & middle school. Safe enough that parents can let their kids walk around unsupervised

See a ‘Sports Parent’ sitting alone? There is a reason. - No drama. - No negativity. - No ignorance. - No complaining. - No badmouthing coaches or refs. They just want to enjoy watching their child play.

Most team culture problems aren’t player issues. They’re adult leaks. Watch closely. When parents… - question officials - criticize coaching decisions at home - make playing time the main topic Kids absorb it. Not because they’re weak. Because they’re wired to. Culture doesn’t stop at the locker room door. It lives in car rides. Group texts. Kitchen table conversations. If a parent’s identity is tied to their child’s role… That pressure shows up in body language. In frustration. In comparison. Here’s the shift: Instead of asking, “How do we control parents?” Ask, “How do we align adults around standards?” When parents understand: - roles are earned - growth > stats - adversity builds strength Everything changes. Team culture isn’t just what coaches allow. It’s what adults model. And kids are always watching. What’s one expectation you clearly communicate to parents before the season starts?

Reality check about youth sports: go to a Senior Night/Day at the end of a high school season. There are far less Seniors still playing than there are kids on your current youth travel team. Just enjoy the ride. It ain’t that serious. The ones who LOVE IT will keep playing

I toured a local charter school yesterday and something the principal said resonated with me: “We teach to the top and provide extra support to students who can’t keep up.” This is how it should be in all public schools. Rigor should be the default, not the exception.

really amazed at the people who are cool with completely ignoring the Golden Rule these days

@Cornfrmr Oh, we aren't talking about cows? This is why I don't get between a cow and her baby. Ever.

Don’t put yourself in positions you could become dead. So many ways to take this, all apply. #adviceoftheday

A candidate joined the interview without turning on his camera. The boss messaged HR: “Unprofessional. Should we drop?” HR asked him to wait. HR called the candidate separately. He said: “Ma’am, I’m sitting in a shared room with 6 people. I don’t want to look disrespectful.” That hit hard. We continued audio-only. No bias. No assumptions. He cleared the interview. Got the offer. Joined last week. Sometimes professionalism isn’t about cameras, suits or backgrounds. It’s about showing up even when circumstances aren’t ideal. Before rejecting someone for how they appear, check why they’re there. Empathy doesn’t lower standards. It reveals talent. 💙

Best example for why ups and downs are important in life
