Good night from the Linc. Amazing that I still get to do this.

The blackout I had a couple of months ago in Atlanta wasn’t random. It was the warning I didn’t see coming and the moment that changed my focus completely.

Inside HBCU tailgate culture

Kenn Rashad @kennrashad.bsky.social · Sep 8

My thanks to @nbcnewyork.com and NBC Sports for inviting me to participate in this project as we prepare for the HBCU NY Classic, featuring Howard and Morehouse, on Saturday at MetLife Stadium!

Bringing generations together to celebrate pride, tradition and culture, HBCU tailgating is more than just a pregame — it’s a vibrant community experience where food, music and fun take center stage.

What do you do when life blindsides you physically, financially, or emotionally while you’re chasing your goals? I learned the hard way in downtown Atlanta a couple of weeks ago. Here’s what it taught me about obstacles and success.

When Life Knocks You Down in the Middle of Chasing Success

Everybody talks about wanting success, but few people talk about what happens when life blindsides you while you’re chasing it.

The Indiana Fever backed themselves into a corner by bringing Caitlin Clark back too early from quad strain and groin injuries. Myself and @msmicaluv.bsky.social discuss how the Fever may have to make a very unpopular decision on the newest Chris' Two Cents episode.

I missed payroll this month.

Not because the mission changed, but because I’ve been trying to carry this alone.
