Nearly twice as many people have Netflix than Cable in America. And TNF is on a streaming service every week.
I don’t think we talked enough about how big of a middle finger it is to NFL fans to have your Thursday night opener be on a paid streaming service and in a foreign country

Six meetings. One day. Ending with my own rep., Congresswoman Budzinski. Andrea is a neurology NP at Springfield Clinic right in IL-13. We don’t just advocate for Alzheimer’s patients. We care for them. Grateful for a rep who shows up for them too. 💜 #ENDALZ

Rep. Sorensen is a cosponsor of the ASAP Act, which requires Medicare to cover blood biomarker tests that can detect Alzheimer’s before symptoms even appear. That’s a game changer for early detection. Thank you Congressman Sorensen. 💜 #ENDALZ #ASAPAct

Congressman LaHood doesn’t just show up for Alzheimer’s. He leads. The AADAPT Act he championed just passed committee 48 to 0. Now we need the full House to finish the job. 💜 #ENDALZ #ALZAdvocacy

Three IL legislators down today. Senator Durbin. Senator Duckworth. Congressman Bost. Democrat. Democrat. Republican. All heard the same ask. Fund Alzheimer’s research. Pass the ASAP Act. Strengthen the BOLD Act. This disease doesn’t pick sides and neither do we. 💜 #ENDALZ

Senator Duckworth is a cosponsor of the ASAP Act. Blood tests that detect Alzheimer’s before symptoms appear. Medicare should cover them. Full stop. Now we need the Senate Finance Committee to move it. The clock is ticking. 💜 #ENDALZ

Last meeting ever with Senator Durbin’s team. He’s been one of the strongest champions for Alzheimer’s funding in the Senate for decades. We asked them to finish strong. No better way to go out. 💜 #ENDALZ #ALZAdvocacy

Capitol building? Check. Talking points? Locked. Six meetings with IL legislators today about Alzheimer’s funding. No survivors yet. That has to change. 💜 #ENDALZ #ALZAdvocacy

It doesn’t have to be. A little common sense could begin to restore the decades of legacy that have been toppled in recent years.

I’m old enough to remember when people actually went to City Tournament. Shouldn’t have tried to fix what wasn’t broken.
Couldn't make it City? Don't worry, #Channel1450 has you covered. We've got all City cheer on Night Four for you to watch right here:

Such a breath of fresh air after being placated by the preaching of patience from Mo through his final, disastrous years.
#STLCards POBO Chaim Bloom: "The more fully we commit to what we need to do, the better it will go and the quicker we will get there. I don’t view this as something that’s about patience. I view it as something to attack with urgency." Updated story coming on Cardinals .com.

Reminds me of the time a local PxP guy said “It’s probably hard for QND to get motivated to play in a rinky-dink gym like this” when they played at Unity one night!
After Naumovich spoke with the announcer at halftime, he immediately walked to the other side of the building to have a chat with QU AD Josh Rabe.

Tip: Don't stomp on a team's logo pre-game and then lose to a 2A team when you should be 4A.

This is so tone deaf @Cardinals. Real fans have been showing up for 10+ years despite a consistently deteriorating product. You’ve sand bagged the on field product while focusing on new revenue streams. What arrogance to think fans should continue to blindly fund a 🗑️ product.
