3/ He was there for the first battles in NYC, #Monmouth, #Yorktown, and so many others large and small along the way. He survived the notorious winter encampments at #Morristown and #ValleyForge and makes you feel it. After reading this, I will honestly never complain about being hungry again.

2/ It is purely a window into the astounding conditions endured by ordinary soldiers, penned by a kid who enlisted at 15 in 1775 and served all the way through the Army's disbandment in 1783. If you ever watch documentaries about the war or read museum exhibits, Plumb Martin is quoted widely.

If you’ve watched Mario play, it’s not even close. For a guy of his size (or anyone size really) to have that kind of puck-handling skill was freakish. And he lost years of his prime to health issues.

He excelled at it at Cincinnati

This is also how he made the ingesting bleach comment. It’s inconceivable for us that someone wouldn’t know how dangerous that is until you realize he never had to scrub a toilet or clean a bathroom in his life. Maybe never even did the dishes before.

Also, am I remembering right that Brown beat like two teams with winning records in his entire tenure? So this terrible team would’ve tied/come close to that?

It is mind-blowing when you put it like that.

My son and I went looking for the site in Long Branch where President Garfield died a few years ago. All he gets is this marker tucked in the bushes of some guy’s front yard. The original cottage was torn down ages ago, just like Grant’s summer White House a few doors down.

We may one day look back on that time Scotty Fox beat JuJu Lewis with the same amusement as WVU being 2-0 vs Patrick Mahomes

I keep waiting for the Sherill margin to fall back to earth but it’s still at 13% with 90% counted. For once the polls severely undercounted the Democratic vote

Thanks for taking the time to chat with us yesterday!

Did Brown beat a top 25 team in his 6 years at WVU?
