The Patriots honored their defensive coordinator, Terrell Williams, who was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer, by wearing matching “T‑Strong” shirts with supportive ribbons during their pregame routines. Williams, 51, is away from the team as he seeks treatment and consultations, and in his absence, inside linebackers coach Zak Kuhr has been calling defensive plays.The tributes were designed to show that, even though he’s not on the sideline, Williams remains central to the team’s spirit and determination.
 
Finnish pool legend Mika “The Iceman” Immonen died on September 28, 2025, at age 52 after a long battle with cancer. A dominant force in cue sports, he won the 2001 World 9‑Ball Championship and the 2009 World 10‑Ball Championship, and secured back‑to‑back U.S. Open titles in 2008 and 2009. Over his career he represented Team Europe 15 times in the Mosconi Cup, contributing to four victories. His death was met with tributes from across the billiards world, honoring both his competitive excellence and the inspiration he provided to fellow players and fans.
 
 

Have a nice week!

LIVE GENEROUSLY!
