What are the Educational, Health, or Economic Benefits to these Players and their Families for that kids uncompensated participation in any additional “NON-SCHOLARSHIP” private third-party postseason football games that pay the Universities and the Conferences for the use of their free labor to put on these highly profitable Bowl events.
The answer is ZERO!
These additional 1-5 POSTSEASON games are also above the Players’ 12 game athletic scholarship agreement?
Our Proposal offers Major Benefits in all three Categories to the Players and their Families! Scholarship Football Players are owed Hundreds of Millions of dollars from this year’s Media contract that uses these Players’ Name, Image, and Likeness NIL without any equitable financial consideration to the Players or their Families!
This lost Money could have a major impact on these Players lives, the lives of their current and future family members for generations?
We do not support, or agree with the House vs NCAA Settlement or the current covert attempts to extend and expand this Antitrust exploitation of our young (mostly minority) FB & BB Players' labor that the US Supreme Court and Federal District Court have recently struck down as illegal and implausible.
Had an amazing time this past weekend in Tahoe at the American Century Championship! It was an honor to compete alongside so many incredible athletes and celebrities.
Thank you to everyone involved in organizing the event and to all the fans who came out to support.
Looking forward to next year already!

Here's my re-write for underestimated founders:
Continually overlooked and underestimated - the hurt goes on.
But let's not forget the immense growth and resilience underestimated founders continue to show. Diversity-X has a community of underestimated founders, who, despite the challenges, strap on the boots and climb the mountain daily.
Underestimated founders do break through and reach remarkable milestones and created incredible impact - which in itself is awe-inspiring.
To all underestimated founders and their teams - congratulations on everything you have achieved to date. Keep 🧗🏾♂️!
You’ve faced criticism from those who have never walked in your shoes, or are just overlooked and underestimated.
When you realise that what doesn’t break you makes you stronger, this journey will help shape your future success. 🏆
Keep your heads held high… the best is yet to come 🙏
Have a great day!

58 years of hurt!
But let's not forget the immense growth and fight this team has shown.
England have reached two consecutive European Championship finals - which in itself is incredible.
To all the players and staff - congratulations for achieving what you have achieved to date.
You’ve faced criticism by commentators and pundits who have never done what you have.
When you realise what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, this experience will help shape your future glory.
Keep your heads held high… the best is yet to come 🙏
David Brown (the 2-time American World Record Holder known as “the fastest completely blind athlete in history,”) and his guide, Jerome Avery (his role is to keep David in the lane) are known as “Team BrAvery.” They epitomize the meanin' and value of bein' awarded...trust. Have you earned that badge of honor...if not / why not / what's your dang hold-up?
It seems as if the PC world we have been pressured to embrace over the last decade is slowly changing. Tip-toeing around topics, lack of accountability, and foregone personal responsibility may be behind us. At least I hope it is in the rearview and getting smaller each time I look up.
The first clue for me that there was a shift happening was the Kia Worldwide "No Participation Trophy" commercial in 2016. If you haven't seen it, or don't remember it check it out here. That was a bold move for Kia. They really walked outside of the lines when they put this one on air. It is interesting that you don't immediately find the actual commercial on YouTube when searching. It is a video of someone recording the commercial.

Added bonus is today's article from The Daily Coach. No parsing words or shunning from individual responsibility here for the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team Emma Hayes. We know how far the old train of thought got us in 2023 for the FIFA Women's World Cup.

Seconds Out//Stories of Irish Boxing - High Performance on the Road to Paris is a first for IABA. This peek inside HP has been released 24 hours before boxing begins in the 1st Olympic World Qualifier.
Delighted to act as Editor in Chief of this piece, produced in collaboration with Lowki Culture:
*****************************************************************
“We would love to qualify the biggest team ever to represent Ireland – and we believe that is achievable”; so says High Performance Director, Tricia Heberle, on the eve of the 1st Olympic World Qualifier.
5 Irish boxers have already qualified for Paris – reigning lightweight Olympic champ, Kellie Harrington, Tokyo Olympians Belfast’s Michaela Walsh (57kg) and Roscommon’s Aoife O’Rourke (75kg); 63.5kg Dean Clancy (Sligo), and Dublin’s Jack Marley, the first Irish heavyweight in 30 years to medal at a Category A event. 8 Irish boxers will vie to do likewise at the 1st of two Olympic World Qualifiers.
This short film, a peek inside High Performance, is part of a series of shorts on Irish Boxing – Seconds Out: Stories of Irish Boxing, commissioned by IABA and produced by Lowki Culture. It features a revealing inside look at HP, with Director & Olympian Tricia Heberle, Head Coach Zauri Antia, Coach Damian Kennedy and now double Olympian, Michaela Walsh.
Michaela says “High Performance, outside of the ring, has helped me massively. For me, High Performance is doing the small things right. It’s now always about training or performing, it’s doing the little things right”
High Performance on the Road to Paris delves in to performance analysis, coaching philosophy, technical & tactical development, High Performance culture, the daily training environment and preparations for Paris 2024.
Head Coach, Zauri Antia says “There are many factors there (in success). The best thing is culture. Culture comes from many things, from traditions, from home, from community. Culture is behaviour…Life is about a battle between positive and negative. And I know, only in positive state of mental strength, you can perform best”
High Performance Coach, Damian Kennedy says “We’ve always had a massive fighting spirit, and with the technical tactical aspect that we’ve brought to it, I think we’re on the right track to becoming the world’s number 1 boxing nation”
