The first bit of news I came across yesterday morning was a shocking one.
Jim Irsay, owner of the Indianapolis Colts (my favourite NFL team!), passed away on Wednesday afternoon.
Maybe it shouldn't really be that much of a shock considering Irsay had been in ill health for quite some time.
I spent yesterday watching some news items, and reading social media posts, about Irsay. I came across some touching tributes. One which stood out shared that Irsay would make a point of giving every Colts employee a birthday card filled with a $100 bill.
Other things Irsay is credited as doing is giving homeless people cash 'from time to time in hopes of helping them get back on their feet'.
I also liked hearing about his maverick tendencies. I had known about that before yesterday, but it was great to see so many being shared by so many.
