Spine board practice is a Fellows Course fan favorite! Expert faculty including @BonnieGSportsMD @nwskelleymd and Drew Lansdown MD share proper technique plus helpful insight from the sidelines. Thanks @OLC_Events and @RSMTpolicefire for the assist as always!
As our Nation of Lifesavers Ambassador @HamlinIsland and the entire @BuffaloBills organization knows, saving lives from sudden cardiac arrest depends on having a strong chain of survival across the emergency response system. Thank you @GovKathyHochul for protecting students…
Thx Gov. Hochul for helping to save lives! At Buffalo Bills Training Camp today, she signed Desha’s Law, requiring cardiac emergency response plans in schools. Thx to the volunteers, the NFL & the Smart Heart Sports Coalition for your work to protect the hearts of NY students!

Why does it keep happening at the high school level? Because we are still watching it happen in the pros. #SaferSidelines This thread re: lightning at an MLB game is wild. Check it ⬇️
160+ lightning events within 8 miles of Camden Yards in the last 35 minutes. If the @Orioles and @MLB cared about the safety of their players, umpires, and fans, they'd require that all teams have #LightningSafety plans in place. Just because it's dry doesn't mean it's safe!
Hey, @grok, who was the most famous person to visit my profile? It doesn't need to be a mutual, don't tag them, just say who it was.
Not one. Not two. Not three, four or five or even eight or nine … but 11 high school band members in Tupelo collapsed during practice in the extreme heat. Mississippi’s heat and cold-water immersion policies for football do not extend to band. fox13memphis.com/news/eleven-ba…
Just paid off another student loan.. one more to go!
