A WWII veteran returns to Utah Beach, the Normandy shore where D-Day unfolded. This Memorial Day, we remember the Americans who never came home, the heroes who gave everything so we could be free.

Barely 2 weeks into 2026, I’m predicting @IndianaUniv @IndianaFootball will be #brand of the year. With largest living alumni base in U.S., a sleeping giant is awake. YOY increases in admissions/donations will surge even more! Will flip home advantage from @univmiami #cfp2025

Curt Cignetti hired offensive coordinator Mike Shanahan as his wide receivers coach in 2017 at Elon for $8,000. Shanahan, now Cignetti's longtime offensive coordinator, will make $1.7 million next season.

Big news @Yankees amending facial hair policy, now allowing “well-groomed” beards & facial hair, a policy dating back to the 70’s & and an issue for some free agents. Missed opportunity to align historic change with sponsorship announcement with @GreatClips or NYC celebrity salon

It's awesome to open another @popupbagels store, but this one is special because it's my home of Roslyn. When they asked what I wanted to put on the wall, I donated my sixth grade report card (1990) from Roslyn Middle School. I got an "I" in Science for "excessive talking."

As this unforgettable @Mets season ends, thank you @FOS @KaplanSportsBiz for including me in one of the best brand partnership stories of the year. This was special because of my years working on @McDonalds sports business early in my career @Mets @MLB frontofficesports.com/purple…

This @Mets run was one for the ages. The best ones are the unexpected ones!! @MLB #LGM

Growing up in 70’s and a huge @Mets fan, hard to ignore @Athletics, with their 3 WS wins, unorthodox colors, innovative ownership & team filled with brash personalities. Coupled with @Raiders, Oakland had grit and passionate fan bases. Losing baseball in Oakland is tragic @MLB

Had no idea until I got back to my hotel. What a piece of news after 3+ hours of pouring rain in sub 60 degree weather. One thing the Norwegians have on us Americans, they have the most sophisticated cold weather and rain gear I have ever seen. Bruce show #87 was epic!
Among the last Americans to hear about Biden dropping out will likely be Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, who have been onstage this whole time in Norway. The whole crowd no doubt knows but I bet no one onstage does yet.
