Game 1 Game 1,573

With his son Tad holding a lantern nearby, President Lincoln spoke to a large crowd outside the White House #OTD in 1865, outlining his plans for reconstruction. Listening in, an angry John Wilkes Booth vowed: "That is the last speech he will make."

From @IndianaFootball Pro Day LIVE on @nflnetwork: A few words from @CCignettiIU on some of the conversation regarding Fernando Mendoza + what it means for the IU program to have a day like this in front of all 32 @NFL teams

If your name is Jesus and you have a big dinner planned with your friends for next Thursday in a garden of some kind, DON'T GO. Those aren’t your friends, boo. One of them will betray you. DM me for details.

A Hoosier explaining why they shouldn’t be called an Indianan.

I'll always remember Chuck Norris as the man who changed the course of dodgeball history by casting the deciding vote that allowed Average Joes to play in the championship of the Las Vegas International Dodgeball Open where they upset the heavily favored Globo Gym Purple Cobras. RIP. 🙏

Wow that really is so unfair to Miami, having to play a postseason game within two hours of someone else’s home stadium. I couldn’t possibly imagine a more unfair postseason scenario in college sports, can you? @gnybarra

How it was. How it is.

The average E-3 is making just under $3200/month in base pay. Hostile fire pay is another $225/month. Additional pay and allowances in a war zone might kick them up to $45-50k a year if they’re drawing family sep, etc. Which translates to between 70-75% of the individual US average personal income of $66,662/year, 56-62% of the average US household income of $80,620/year. In exchange they are on call 24/7 for the duration of their deployment and (depending on military occupation) routinely working 60-80+ hours a week in highly dangerous conditions that put life, limb, and mental health in jeopardy. Given what we expect of these men and women, I hardly think a special meal every week or so - many years ago it was every Friday when I was deployed- is an extravagance.

9 years ago today and it still brings a smile to my face.

We also need to honor Amy Slover. She has stood by Eric’s side through thick and thin. The pride in her eyes is evident. I’ve said on here before that Nightstalker wives are just built different. They endure, they support, and they do it all alone. When we leave we have the easy job. These ladies spend many nights alone, experience too many rapid departures. These ladies make us what we are. None of us would be where we are without them. Thank you Amy, you are an example to all. LNSDQ
