People are really out here acting like this man's resume isn't damn near bulletproof. #samo
Northwestern graduate. A six year NFL career. Union leadership during the 2011 lockout. An MBA from the University of Chicago. A partner in the McKinsey Operations practice.

Dan Snyder must have thought his resume was a practical joke when it landed on his desk.
And because why not?

He's on the Board of Trustees at Union Theological Seminary.

Today my thoughts are of Captain Alix Idrache, a US Army helicopter pilot, who graduated at the top of his West Point class with a degree in physics in 2016.

He's also a Haitian immigrant. Image
Among the many notable things about him is what he wrote when the above photo of his West Point graduation went viral... Image
The bot response to this tweet is rather remarkable.

Yes, the Tracy Chapman / Luke Combs performance mattered because it was a connection across supposed divides, but it also mattered because Combs embodied unbridled joy, admiration,and respect for Chapman, something we see FAR too rarely when these sorts of bridges are celebrated. Image
He knew he was a guest at HER table and rightfully was out of his mind with joy to be there. Image
Anyway, I can't say enough about how Luke Combs handled that moment, but maybe the most appropriate compliment I can pay him is that he held it together while onstage with Tracy Chapman & sang beautifully. I suspect that's also the thing that he's most proud of because... Image

The thing about the get along with everyone advice is that it’s easily given and followed from a position of power, because “getting along” rarely means giving up anything that you’re already denying to the folks you’re getting along with.
Folks aren’t looking for a fight.

They’re looking for things to which they have a right: fair pay, bodily autonomy, to live free from fear of mortal harm.

You don’t have a right to expect them to get along with you while you deny or seek to deny them those things.
Last thing I’ll add, this is an actually an issue I’ve long struggled with. I’ve had to unlearn the instinct.

He’s Tom Wambsgans without the inherent midwestern likability.
It’s the fact that he’s OF these people but CLEARLY thinks he’s better than them (spoiler, he’s not) but lacks the acting talent or natural charisma to mask it.
In fairness to him, I definitely thought that guy said his name was Timantha so I was also confused.

They should build a statue of these two men outside of the London Stadium.
Or at least gift them a painting of the events. Just use this as the reference image. Image
Dude in the jacket has been ready for this moment his entire life. Handed out boxed lunches left and right.
