Just came across this video I took of Dan Hicks in Atlanta at Team USA Training Camp before the Rio Olympics. This is who Dan was. Playful, fun-loving, with a wicked sense of humor. RIP, Danny.

The loss of my friend, Dan Hicks is one of the darkest days of my life. He was so much more than my partner for 8 Olympic Games…he was the greatest friend a guy could ever have. As hard of a loss as it is for me and so many in the NBC family, my thoughts, energy, and prayers are with Hannah and his wonderful daughters. I miss you so much, Danny. God speed. 💔💔

“I’m very grateful for the moments we’ve shared personally. Since I was a young man, you were always very generous with me … It’s been an absolute privilege to make two films with you.”

In the last month, one tech CEO significantly altered U.S. Ukraine policy and another U.S. China tech policy. Each had enormous power to do so without oversight. Will it spark a broader rethinking of super-empowered corporate heads in vital national security spaces?

Training shouldn’t depend on mood or motivation.
Military calisthenics with equipment gives you a clear structure you can rely on every session.
You know what to do and you execute it.
- consistent structure
- controlled tension
- no wasted movement

A statement from the Yankees following the passing of Bob Boone:
“The Yankees mourn the passing of Bob Boone, who grew up in our sport and spent a lifetime giving back to the game he loved as an exceptional player, respected manager and distinguished executive. His legacy is profound, and we can see the values he embodied carried forward by his son, Aaron, in his leadership of the Yankees. Our entire organization joins the baseball community in extending its heartfelt condolences to the entire Boone family and all who had the privilege of being touched by his friendship.”
Just because his Dad opened the door He still had to step up and the young man has skills and might be even better than his dad.
BTW...nothing for nothing, I know people yell about nepo babies & things like that. But Noah Eagle is going to have a long career in sports broadcasting. He gets tapped to step in for Tirico on short notice in front of a Nationwide audience & he gets it done. Only 29 years old.

It is heartbreaking to see antisemitism in my hometown. I was born in Wyncote, near Philadelphia, and it makes me angry and ashamed to see hatred tolerated there.
The numbers show this is not an abstract concern. The Anti-Defamation League recorded 465 antisemitic incidents across Pennsylvania in 2024, an 18% increase over 2023. It tracked 189 incidents in Philadelphia and 51 in Montgomery County. These reports include harassment, vandalism, and assault; they are not all classified as crimes. (adl.org, philadelphia.adl.org)
Hateful expression harms more than its immediate target. In a 2025 survey of Jewish Americans, 79% said they were concerned about antisemitism, and 52% said they had worried about their personal safety because of their identity. Nearly half reported taking steps to increase their security. A research review also found that exposure to hate is associated with worse psychological well-being, more negative stereotypes, and less trust between groups. (philadelphia.adl.org, pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov)
It takes me back to the racism I experienced in the 1960s: signs throughout the South declaring that Black people could be refused service, along with separate “white” and “colored” signs on bathrooms and drinking fountains,”no niggers”. I remember what that hatred looked and felt like. We cannot accept it in any form, directed at any people.
I wish I could be there to stand with those protesting HATE. I am asking elected officials and other leaders in Philadelphia: Where are the clear statements condemning antisemitism? When hateful language is excused or repeated, it can make hostility seem acceptable and deepen fear and division. Leaders should speak plainly and consistently: antisemitism and hate have no place in our communities.
What the hell? We have to speak up.
