Don’t mind me, I’m just sweating from my eyes…
Social media has really turned into a dark place. I mean, you can’t scroll for more than two minutes before reading some kind of doom and gloom, hate, vitriol… it kinda sucks.
However, every now and then, you’ll see something that makes you stop what you’re doing… and reflect.
Nebraska football posted one of the most moving videos I’ve ever seen on their Twitter.
In the video, you see #21 Damian Jackson, a former Navy SEAL who walked on to the Cornhusker football team, carrying old glory down a street, leading a number of Nebraska fans.
At the end of the street, Jackson and the others are met by an Army veteran, a police officer, firefighter, and doctor.
Then… cue the waterworks.
Jackson and the Army veteran, who lost his leg fighting for our country, meet in the middle and offer a salute to each other.
Classy move, Nebraska football, classy move… I almost wish you didn’t lose to Illinois last Saturday.
Thank you to all of our first responders out there.
