AT realness. Not all heroes wear capes. Most wear khakis. Views are my own.

No. Pick a team when you’re 8 and be angry the rest of your life
Normalize switching sports allegiances.

Players: The person you are is far more important than the player you are. Your athletic talent is very temporary, but your character lasts a lifetime. What are your habits? Do you work hard? Are you humble? Grateful? Honest? Do you care for others? Character always follows you!

Tell me more about how you’re deeply concerned that men are transitioning just to prey on women in bathrooms but you’re not concerned at all about the men who are preying on women out in the open and becoming elected officials.

There is no situation in sports period where this is acceptable. This is not "tough coaching" this is mental and physical abuse. This coach should be fired and not allowed to interact with young people. Bad leadership and a poor example of how to respond to adversity.
ULM’s offensive line coach LOST IT on a player today

Excited to announce that colleagues & I have identified a new #concussion sign that's been hiding in plain sight. We named it Spontaneous Headshake After a Kinematic Event, or SHAAKE. Seen in movies & cartoons, it hasn't been in protocols, but should be. usnews.com/news/health-news/…

In our study, SHAAKE had a positive predictive value of 72%, so 3 out of 4 times you see it, it's due to concussion symptoms. Top 2 symptoms were: 1. Disorientation/confusion (25%) 2. A feeling like you needed to jumpstart your brain (23%) Press release: eurekalert.org/news-releases…

All joking aside, there’s a reason we adhere so strictly to heat guidelines. Exertional heat stroke is 100% preventable and 100% treatable when recognized. Prevention, of course, is the gold standard and we do what we can to look after our kids at all costs.
Exertional heat stroke is one of three leading causes of death in high school sports in the U.S., according to the CEO of @K_S_Institute. Amid record-setting high temperatures, one New Jersey high school says preventing the heat illness is a top priority.

When we say there’s a shortage of ATs, this is what we mean. There are plenty of ATs. Just not ones that want to do this job any more. And yes this is a job not a life(style). This is why I left the traditional setting and see myself leaving the profession within the next 3 yrs
