Keep your kids playing multiple sports for as long as possible. Don't listen to club coaches pushing them to specialize. They'll become more well-rounded athletes and people (and far less prone to injury/burnout) if they don't. If you're good enough, colleges will find you.

Dear young athletes- keep this photo saved to your phone and show the next person who says you have to focus on one sport in HS. The amount of kids I’ve heard say “I can’t risk getting hurt” or “my coach won’t let me” drives me crazy. You get one shot to be a HS athlete.…

Thank you, champion @stipemiocic , for all you’ve done for our sport and, above all, for the class you embody and the example you set. I’m grateful for how our battles have shaped me into a better fighter; those moments taught me more than years in the sport. Enjoy your…

Honestly, a quote that can be pretty applicable to just about anything in life.

If you’re focused on dress code… you’re focused on the wrong thing.

Rank is one the biggest tricks ever played on the fire service. For some reason those that promote think it means they are better than others or that people work for them. The truth is, officers work FOR the firefighters and the higher you go, the more people you work for.

How do you have a playoff caliber roster with expectations to contend deep in the playoffs, and you keep DTR as your backup?? The most important position in professional sports !? @KenCarman @SportsBoyTony Who is held accountable for this decision? #Browns

Players: If your coach tells you to ONLY play the sport they're coaching, they don't care about your future.

Was texting with a highly successful retired Power 5 coach this morning about the current culture of youth / amateur sports. Too much gold in this text not to share.

Retired FDNY Lieutenants Tim Klett & Louis Rufrano take on the "Keyboard Commanders" of the fire service who negatively judge the actions of others early on, just from a video or picture, and without having all the facts.


Spend your 8,9,10, and 11u summers developing these KIDS, their fundamentals, and teach them about the way baseball relates to the struggles their life will bring. Listen up parents!!Truth being spoken here by @coachzblair10 !Stop ruining the game for these young KIDS.

Winning is very important but thinking back on it I'm not sure if I ever won a summer tourney from 15u-18u. Glad my coaches & parents prioritized development & exposure over winning. You can still get recruited even if you aren't on the #1 team. Worked out pretty well for me! 👊🏻
