The Olympic summer games in Paris are less three weeks away and with all that's going on this might be the break we all need before we head into the fall election..."The Games" --we will see triumphs, setbacks, and of course all those back stories that are way too long.....My favorite moment despite all the great stories of the athletes is seeing the America flag hoisted and hearing the Star-spangled Banner played... It always brings a huge pride that is indescribable and just a damn good feeling...GO TEAM USA!!🥲
Would love to hear your favorite moment from the Olympic games... Past, present, future...Share on!!!
Send help......and a storage unit. He kept the m'fer a secret. Maybe I should come home with a pair of $1000 shoes.
