This is how that walk-off steal of home sounded from @Scooter7150
Nine.
Nine CHILDREN went to celebrate their football team today and left with gunshot wounds.
20+ people in total. One who will never get to hug their loved ones again.
This is madness.
This is heartbreaking.
This has to stop.

Thinking of all the families and fans in Kansas City who just wanted to come m together to celebrate. Heartbroken, furious & disgusted with our country and the inaction of our leaders.
ENOUGH. DO SOMETHING.

Crazy Fact: Major League Baseball has been around for 147 years, and there have been a little over 23,000 players who have played a professional baseball game.
To put that in perspective, MLB's smallest stadium by capacity is Progressive Field at 37,830. Meaning if every player who's ever put on a big league uniform from 1876 to 2023 sat in the stands, the stadium would only be at 61% capacity.

Four years ago @NextLevelTrent was gracious enough to partner with @ECUHHP and let me and a few other curious students collect motion capture and eye tracking data in his facility.
A little early morning Science going on in the house. The ECU Biomechnics Lab continuing their data collection, for their semester-long study, they’re performing in here. JAY TYNDALL & @lukelambert2023 all “Sensored up”. Learning never stops! @BayFish03

Tomorrow I get Spring Training beers with friends to commemorate three 2022 ECU Kinesiology grads now working as Biomechanists in @MLB. My how far things have come. Great things happen when you partner with great people
Such an honor to be a part of this many years ago as a student and to see it carrying on. @GCCExSci really is a hidden gem

The lessons from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. leadership are as important today as during the Civil Rights Movement.
We take today to remember him and his legacy.
