It’s night & day how the Browns media treats Shedeur versus how the Saints media treats Shough. You want him to be buddy-buddy with people who create narratives, nitpicks his every word and action, and even criticizes his family for clicks? Their contexts are radically different

#Browns Shedeur Sanders was asked on why he decided to sign an agent… He is focused on this game.

I really hope he goes 4-4 and leaves. This program was the worst in the P4, and has generates so much. And the life, and light he has brought theae kids is amazing. He care about building men. Has he made mistakes, of course. But this program was really, historically bad. And how some oeople talk about him is disgusting and disrespectful! And yes, he us different from an average coach, he is Deon Sanders.

Album of the day. This beloved gospel-soul grail has been brought up a lot lately that I had to revisit it. The Youth for Christ Choir was 40-something kids strong, developed as an after-school program for the children of the Mount Zion congregation on the South Side of Chicago, and it was through Pastor T.L. Barrett’s involvement with Reverend Jesse Jackson’s Operation Breadbasket (an organization dedicated to economic development in black communities) that Barrett met Ben Branch, the music director of Operation Breadbasket's house orchestra and Chess Records arranger, Gene Barge.
With their assistance, the then-27 year-old Pastor Barrett and Youth for Christ Choir recorded Like A Ship... (Without a Sail) back in 1971. It was self-released and sold at local church functions (another reason it is so rare and obscure), boasting incredibly soul-stirring gospel tunes "Like A Ship," the funk-driven "Ever Since," the epic centerpiece "Nobody Knows," "Joyful Noise," "Dr. Watts Hymn & Disciples Prayer" (those funk breaks!), and the jazzy instrumental "Blessed Quietness." I'd also like to give props to the backing crew, which comprised of usual suspects from the Chicago soul and jazz scene, like seasoned guitarist Phil Upchurch and session bassist Richard Evans, just to name a few. Even if you aren't a religious person, you can't deny the moving musical power and redemptive messages contained within these grooves.
