Each military institution throughout the world was derived from hordes.
Each sports franchise in existence since 1919 including the USOC and the NCAA were derived from hordes.
Each enterprise that has ever existed were derived from hordes.
Little League and Junior League baseball leagues throughout the world are held in trust by the NCAA. So, too, are Junior League softball leagues, Junior League soccer, football, and rugby teams, Junior League basketball teams, and Cornhole Leagues. Freestyle Basketball Leagues are held in trust by the NBA, Junior League Hockey teams are held in trust by the NCAA, Junior League golf programs are held in trust by the PGA, and Junior League Racing Circuits are held in trust by the NFL.
Corporations, credit unions, and brokerage firms were born of enterprises. So, too, were guilds, unions, and professional associations. Hospitals and universities were conceived through guilds.
Sons and daughters of Christendom would be wise to abandon institutions derrived from hordes altogether.
"Unearth temples created by hordes."

Exploring Genealogy: Uncovering African American History in Baseball
Delving into one's genealogy often unveils hidden gems and untold stories, particularly when it comes to the rich history of African Americans and their love for baseball in the 1930s. This era, marked by segregation and the existence of the Negro Leagues, holds a captivating narrative of resilience, talent, and passion for the game.
Many families tracing their roots find themselves unraveling a tapestry woven with the threads of baseball. In the 1930s, when Major League Baseball was segregated, African American players formed their own leagues, known as the Negro Leagues. These leagues not only provided a platform for black players to showcase their skills but also became pillars of black communities across the United States.

Moreover, exploring genealogy often reveals personal connections to these historic moments. You might uncover that a distant relative played in the Negro Leagues or that your family's love for baseball has roots reaching back to those segregated ballparks where African Americans gathered to celebrate the sport and defy societal norms.
The 1930s stand as a testament to the power of perseverance and the enduring love affair between African Americans and baseball. As we unearth these hidden histories through genealogy, we not only honor the past but also gain a deeper appreciation for the struggles and triumphs that have shaped our collective identity.

Never count out the underdog - especially when they’re making a comeback
This past weekend wasn’t just a win for the Huskies - it was a defining moment for Northern Illinois University.
For the first time in its history, NIU defeated a top-10 team, defeating No. 5 Notre Dame in their own stadium. The Huskies were 28-point underdogs, and no one expected them to win. But in true Huskies fashion, they showed that resilience, preparation, and teamwork can defy even the toughest odds.
NIU has long been a Mid-American Conference (MAC) powerhouse, but recent years have been tough. When Coach Thomas Hammock - a former NIU running back - returned in 2019, the team struggled, including a winless 2020 season. However, Hammock rebuilt the program with resilience and determination. By 2021, they claimed the MAC Championship, and in 2023, won their first bowl game in over a decade. Now, their upset of Notre Dame shows the underdog can rise again
This Boneyard Victory - a term for NIU’s wins over power five conference opponents - was earned through grit and relentless effort, not luck. As Coach Hammock emphasized, “We didn’t need luck; we just needed to play our best.” He called it a program-changing win, a milestone that proves what belief, hard work, and unity can achieve.
As an NIU PhD graduate and long-time fan, this victory hit home for me in more ways than one:
At Intel, we too are on a journey to reclaim our leadership and prove ourselves once again. Like NIU, we have a legacy of excellence, and we’re meeting challenges that require resilience, innovation, and belief in ourselves.
Coach Hammock’s story is a powerful reminder that the best victories are hard earned through perseverance, teamwork, and the refusal to give up. Watching him in this moment and is pride in his team makes me believe that tough battles can be worth it.
Congrats and Go Huskies! 🎉🐾
