The year is 2038. 58 year old Rafa Nadal has won The French Open again.

In 49 states it’s just basketball

WE ARE SOOO BACK

It was an emotional postgame presser for @HUMensBB as Bryce Harris and Ose Okojie shared their final thoughts about Howard HC Kenny Blakeney and how's changed their lives. Their answers are almost ten mins long (which obvs speaks to KB), but here's a little snippet:

Pacers/Kings was shuffled onto the TV i used to watch Bam surpass Kobe’s 81. This is what narcan hitting must feel like.

@WhittingtonCJ @BrianLaManna_ Would love to know more about how you did this. Been thinking about this exact use case since Google Alerts, Owler all are unreliable.

@BrianLaManna_ I think the Google alerts strategy is old news I went a step further and turned an agent on that runs in the background that sends me a note every day about recent news about my accounts, how they pertain to my solutions, and how to message the right people at my accounts

Received my territory for 2026 (in mid Jan) and boy am I pumped up. Here’s a glimpse into my book. -6 Tier 1’s -8 Tier 2’s -16 Tier 3’s And 5 strategic customers with whitespace potential. Glimpse into my Tier 1 strategy for 2026: -Google Alerts for each -Requesting 10-20 people on LinkedIn (followers, mutual connections, etc.) -If Public, adding their stock to my Stocks App. -Messaging people internally with mutual connections… do they know them? Any chance they can introduce? -Giving each account a dedicated deep research day (2 hours) - org chart, account plan, earnings reports, YouTube (understand what they do), scour news My goal with each of them: Within 1 month, book at least 1 conversation with each account. Can be an SDR, AE, marketing, product… I don’t care. My goal is to learn as much as possible about them, their existing initiatives, and start to build my POV. Then I’ll be ready to attack.

Marathon records to me are some of the most insane records in all sports. This time is a 4:22 mile which no one reading this could achieve, which is a 65 second 400 which very few reading this could achieve, and he did it for 13 straight miles. Just insane

I'm starting to realize that 4-5 key people will change the trajectory of your entire career or business. Some archetypes this can look like: - A fantastic boss/manager - A champion at a first customer that opens doors for you - A colleague that vouches for you to get a job that's out of your league - A mentor that gives you honest feedback of your current business and what you need to change Finding those 4-5 people is way more important than being popular, having followers, etc. Find whatever spaces that will have the highest likelihood of those 4-5 people being there.

Turns out the Pats schedule truthers were on to something..

I’m afraid we might be approaching worst SB territory

Best semifinals slate (potentially ever?) in Melbourne. Djoker really emptied the tank 🐐

Haliburton funny as hell man😭😭😭

"One thousand wins is a remarkable achievement...but even more important than that, it's a reminder of the many players, coaches and teams you've shaped along the way." Congratulations came in from across the league and beyond after Coach Carlisle picked up win No. 1,000 ❤️‍🔥
