BOOM: Natasha S Alford shows us how to effectively refute the gaslighting tactics used by Republicans regarding racism in America and their tendency to dodge addressing the real issues.
Natasha effortlessly challenges Scott Jennings.

While I get the championships argument, this is brutal from Jay Williams saying he’s “unwilling” to call Caitlin Clark great… ESPECIALLY bringing up Kobe as a reason
There’s not a doubt in my mind Kobe & his family would have been there in person to see Caitlin break the record

MY ANNUAL PLEA TO THE NCAA:
If the Super Bowl can kick off at 6:30pm ET, why on earth does the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship Game not tip til 9:20pm ET?
Wanna hook in a new generation of fans? Make the game at a time when they can stay up to watch it.

This is exactly why there couldn't have been a worse year for both U-M and MSU women's hoops to only play Iowa once this year on the road and not at home. Breslin and Crisler would have been sellouts

This morning, as I grapple with the passing of my aunt…
A gross distortion of my father’s beliefs on equality; a horrible misuse of his image to oppose something he pressed for:
Policies/programs that prevent ‘white supremacy’ laden inequity in hiring, college admissions, etc

‼️Why Kids Quit Sports‼️
70% of children are dropping out of organized sports by the age of 13.
5 main reasons:
1. It’s no longer fun.
2. They have lost ownership of the experience.
3. They don’t get playing time.
4. They are afraid to make mistakes.
5. They feel disrespected.
Therefore…it is our obligation as coaches, parents, and adults to:
1. Create life-giving experience.
2. Instill a “Get to vs. Have to” mentality.
3. Set up value system not based on playing time.
4. Encourage risk…”If you aren’t making mistakes, you aren’t doing anything.”
5. Love BIG!

We need re-capture the gift of sport:
1. Go after the hearts of the kids we serve.
2. Create a joyful space for them to be free to Fail-it is win or learn culture!
3. Use the experience to teach a way of life that transcends the game.
4. Breathe life into who they are becoming!

Navy SEALs have a saying.
You may find it helpful.
When something sucks, they look at each other and say:
"FULL BENEFIT"
It’s an instant mindset shift.
• Hiking and it starts pouring rain?
• Driving and your car breaks down?
• Working on a project and lost a draft?
FULL BENEFIT.
***
LESSON: Adversity is an opportunity
The message is simple.
Every adversity is an opportunity.
• To grow
• To learn
• To evolve
• To get stronger
• To become better
These moments forge us if we let them.
The next time you're facing something hard, welcome it.
Work through the process.
Learn the lessons.
Reap the full benefit.

“Participation Trophies” for 7-year-olds aren’t the problem … Adults prioritizing winning over fun, development, and age-appropriate competition are the problem.
