Met a waiter at a steakhouse who probably adds $20k/mo to the restaurant. Made me feel stupid because I thought he was just taking orders. Legit assassin. No pressure in his voice ever. No fake smile. No hard sell. Controls the table like he’s done it 10,000 times. He taught me something that changed everything about how I sell premium offers. We sat down and my friend said he wasn’t going crazy tonight. Just wanted something simple. The waiter looked at the menu, pointed at 3 steaks, and said: “If you want a normal dinner, the sirloin is solid. If you care more about flavor, the ribeye makes sense. But if you came here for the full experience, that’s the tomahawk.” Then he shut up as if nothing had happened. No explanation. No recommendation. No “this is our best one.” That hit me different. People are trying way too hard to sell. You’re “explaining” your deliverables. You’re “proving” your value. You’re “justifying” why your premium offer costs what it costs. Meanwhile killers don’t explain. They frame. They position. They let the buyer feel the gap. My friend ordered the $280 tomahawk 60 seconds later. Old me would’ve thought the waiter upsold him. The new me saw what actually happened. He made the cheap steak feel basic, the middle steak feel safe, and the expensive steak feel like the only serious choice. That is The Menu Frame. Your prospect doesn’t need another 30-minute pitch about your process. He needs to see the difference between the small fix, the partial solution, and the full outcome. Because once the cheap option feels like a compromise, the premium option stops feeling expensive. It starts feeling obvious. Your pricing isn’t the problem. Your frame is weak.

As a Knicks fan since May, it is really hard to see all these fakers come into my fandom. Like where were you when we beat the sixers? Where were you when we beat the cavs? In fact, where was I? Where am I?

Another homecoming w/ @nflnetwork now part of ESPN... Senior national reporter @StaceyDales spent 7 years at ESPN (2002-08) as a college basketball analyst, college football sideline reporter, and more. Great to have Stacey back reporting on SportsCenter today.

DeMarvion Overshown is working at MLB. He likes the added responsibility and wants to be the leader of the defense. But a number of LBs are also wearing the "green dot," in practice. Ryan Flournoy was productive (four catches). Really strong hands.

Some observations about Cowboys OTA on Tuesday. Do not get carried away with any of these but here we go ... Cobie Durant had an impressive interception, driving on a Dak Prescott throw outside to Traeshon Holden. He did a somersault while making the grab. Later he added a PBU.

I try to learn one new thing a day and this one floored me. I feel this song in my soul explains why. Burnt orange sunsets baby!
It's 1980 in Austin and you had no idea that Christopher Cross's song "Sailing" was about Lake Travis⛵️ LAKE TRAVIS, TX (@fox7austin)— When you think of the definitive yacht rock anthem, you probably picture the beaches of Malibu or the coast of Maui. But the ultimate masterpiece of the genre—Christopher Cross’s iconic, 5-time Grammy-winning hit "Sailing"—actually traces its roots straight to the choppy waters of Travis County. While Cross was born and raised in San Antonio, graduating from Alamo Heights High School, it wasn’t until he moved his musical ambitions up the road to Austin that the inspiration for his signature 1980 Billboard No. 1 single truly took shape during frequent trips across Lake Travis. Cross has often noted that the classic track wasn’t written about an ocean getaway, but rather the genuine sense of escape he discovered in Travis County as he transitioned into adulthood. Reflecting on the local inspiration behind the legendary song, Cross shared: "It's about an older friend of mine who had a boat... and we would go out on Lake Travis. It was just a transition from being a kid to being an adult... just a very wonderful way to escape the transition of growing up." That peace he found on the lake ultimately became a song universally recognized as the absolute pinnacle of yacht rock. This edited video includes shots of Lake Travis.

No honor among thieves these days 🤣 I appreciate the ones who actually credit the work and where it came from but the bus has left the station.
When “Miami Dolphins Zone” scrapes your X posts and photo, is the only solution to stop posting on X? Or would you say that “Miami Dolphins Zone” is in no way hurting my company/my content, so I shouldn’t even worry about it? What about when they and others scrape stories?

Burchett- It’s not about “little green men and flying saucers,” it’s about spending billions of dollars which are unaccounted for on programs the pentagon says don’t exist, and then in the SCIF tell us they do exist..

The Cowboys' disguises were on display today during 7on7. Cobie Durant had a diving INT. Caelen Carson and Dee Winters had PBUs. Brian Schottenheimer: "I'm thrilled about where our pass defense is right now."

My friend produced Age of Disclosure. This information is all in it.
Marco Rubio was briefed on recovered alien bodies. 👀 According to Leslie Kean, former Senate staffer Kirk McConnell was present for classified briefings alongside Marco Rubio about alien bodies.

Elite post here. Business is changing everyday. Humor and gratitude stand out in this one. Good luck Dave!
My 36-year run at the Sun-Sentinel is over. Laid off for the first time since I lost my job as an ice-rink skate guard at 17. Cost-cutting move then, they said, too. I'm a month from 65, so please keep any sympathy for my newspaper friends who didn’t make it to the finish line like I have. I’m looking forward to doing some things I want to do so before the hall narrows and the light dims so you might not be completely done with me yet. Thanks to everyone who made it such a fun run.

No LVs on the grass at practice this year.
YOU LOVE TO HEAR IT! @jonmachota revealed that #DallasCowboys RB Jaydon Blue got work ‘with the 1s’, got targeted in the red zone, & after practice when most guys were leaving the field he put in some extra work with Dak Prescott & a few other teammates. 💪 @VochLombardi @FootsDaKing @SkywalkerSteele FULL SHOW: youtube.com/live/haurhyILNI8…

And if I’ve got this wrong someone feel free to correct me or educate me 🤷🏼‍♀️
And I enjoy learning and growing my own football IQ year in and out. Good stuff here from my dudes. Fans, I’ve been catching up on disguise defenses this week. I don’t wanna sound confused when asking about it or hearing about it so I used the vast network of this beat to teach me. Study quarters, umbrellas, match sets. We will see a lot of that in CP’s defense. When we talk Caleb Downs what does that mean? He can be a chess piece. Safeties will play 10-12 yds deep meaning they have flexibility back there. It forces the QB to process a lot of information pre snap and from there they can quick rotate to cover 3 or quarters and halfs. You will hear these words a lot this summer so I’ve wanted to personally understand it more and maybe you do as well? Didn’t grow up around football so I’m always trying to be a sponge and ask smarter questions. Let me know if I can help any of you not just all women…my own father is clueless 🤣
