NFL Tinker With Rules

The owners met last week and instituted several changes. We talk about the "one that got away". Well, at least it's been tabled.

​Scott Pederson, CEO of Positive Athlete reached out to let us know about a video his organization did with spokesman Hines Ward, talking about “Lessons in Positivity”. The organization looks at athletes who have overcome difficult circumstances, given back to their schools and communities, or just have an infectious positive attitude. Here is a link to the video.
