For the first 72 years at the Olympic Games, athletes jumped forwards in the high jump 🏃 Then, at Mexico 1968, Dick Fosbury came along with his "Fosbury flop" and changed the sport forever 🙌

The love and admiration for Dick Fosbury is pouring in around the world, and here in front of his statue near where he perfected his 'Flop.' Bryon Van Fleet pushed for this statue to be erected; he joins us today on Joe Beaver at 11:30.

Jeffrey, thank you for the message about Bruce. "Colin Went Down to the Water" is one of his more poignant songs ever, taking up a sensitive theme so beautifully as only a poet can.

Coach Gary Andersen asked me to send this out on his behalf. I echo his words. Kyle brought so much energy & a blue collar attitude that set the bar for his teammates. He embodied everything you want in a teammate. Sincerest condolences to Kyle’s family at this time of loss.

It has been a long time between tweets, but the presence of the Beavs working out at Alex Box in Baton Rouge is a beautiful sight. And what a site.

And not far from the ballpark, the Big Old Strong, Old Man River, The Father of Waters, flowing unvexed towards the sea.

The sky above the Willamette in Corvallis today. As Bruce Cockburn says, "You don't take these things for granted when you think about what's in need of repair."
