Really sad news out of Memphis. Brandon Clarke has died. He was 29.
He was great with kids. He had just established his own foundation and was committed to pouring into the Memphis community. I went to two of those events. Keep his family in prayers.

The last two weeks in Boston sports have been absurd. Vrabel goes to counseling during the draft. Cora fired by a franchise that doesn’t seem to care about winning anymore. Bruins get stomped. Celtics lose 3-1 lead in the first round. To Philly.
