the power and wisdom in knowing when to pass on opportunities offered to you.. and when to seize the shit out of them. that determines success and shapes the path of many lives. Had I said "yes" to what seemed like attractive opportunities early in my career, there would've been no Gameday, no big CFP games, no Wimbledon or USOpens.. #luck often plays a big role but your developing trust in your gut is the most important factor you can control. I'd be interested to hear your takes on this. #opportunities #lifelessons #success #sayingno
what a true thrill to share Derby/Oaks weekend with my man @kirkherbstreit and his family and posse! He's got this thing wired and is an exceedingly generous host. This year marks 30 years since we started working together on CFB weekends. Sort of mind blowing. It's my first time at the derby since abc/ESPN lost the rights 26 years ago! I loved hosting our triple crown coverage.. but it's even more fun to enjoy this as a fan.. #derby152 #kentuckyderby
Congrats @jamesblake and @agassi - champs of "Pickleball Slam 4". We shared some stories and laughs last night after their hard earned upset win. That makes it 4 Ws in 4 years with 4 different partners for Andre. 👑

This is the man I've been trying to know better in recent weeks. My father, Knox Fowler. I was 16 when lung cancer took him from us. i'm now 13 years older than he was. hard to wrap my head around that. i've long ago put away the grief. Or so I thought. But there are So many questions unasked. So many life chapters missed. What he left behind were cassette tapes.. ten hours of his theatrical voice narrating his daily struggles, fears, and also powerful lessons learned in his final years. I traveled to four places, retracing some of his favorite steps, hearing first hand stories about the impact he made. As I said in the previous reel, it was both warm and inspiring, AND dark and heavy. The 3 pictures I chose (set to the piano brilliance of favorite musician, Horowitz) show different facets: the intense theater director and professor.. and a playful side. More sides of him will be explored in the upcoming short documentary feature on ESPN. It will air on Father's day. Thank you sincerely for the thoughtful and supportive comments on prior posts. I appreciate them all very much. More to come on my quest to know my dad better. #fathers #family #dad
it was midway through the 5 day road trip to learn more about the dad I lost far too early... there had been some very happy moments listening to stories from his former college students in Rockford, IL... and THEN there was the hour spent at our family house of almost 50 years ago in Colorado Springs... not happy.. very heavy. but It's all part of the quest.. this will all be shown in a special feature on ESPN for Father's day. much more to come. #father #dad #life
