In 1960, four students from historically black North Carolina Agricultural and Technical College walked into a Woolworth lunch counter with the intention of ordering a meal. #todayinhistory Franklin McCain was one of the students who refused to give up his seat.

C-Town Sports is officially, official! . . No agency wanted the new agent. No agency wanted the young agent. No agency, and I mean absolutely NO AGENCY wanted the female agent. . . They didn’t want to let me into the “boy’s club,” SO I MADE MY OWN DAMN CLUB. #NFLAgent

So...my Dad died today & honestly I’m not sure how to feel. I’m sad, but I’m also happy 4 all the great times we had together. We’d roast each other like homies more than Father & Son, and I really liked that. He was my best friend & my idol. Love U Dad...I’ll miss u. - J.D.
