| Pat Summitt Her piece on the ESPYS tonight was one of the greatest things I've ever seen. Makes me even more proud to be a Vol fan. Pat, Peyton, Candace Parker and Tennessee were all trending on Twitter. The Vols are conquering the world!! VFL!!!

| It created a rare tear-up for me. That or some dust got in my eyes. It was one of the best pieces I've ever seen on ESPN. I'd love to see a 30on30 done on her. |

| | Renaissance Man | I think my allergies are acting up. Honestly, a very moving segment and a great representation of our icon. Pat is a shining example of what can be great in college sports. |

| Great piece on Pat.
When Tyler walked on stage with her, he is wearing an A pin on his jacket. Is that Alzeimer's pin? Looks like the Alabama "A" |
