Wild Discovery During Ancestry Research:  NFL Exec Bill Polian (above with Peyton Manning) is John F Murray's Cousin!
Life never ceases to amaze and this fun trivia bit seems unbelievable but it's true. While researching ancestry records almost 100 years old in doing a family project for my mother, I accidentally discovered that my ex-nemesis (as Miami Dolphins fan) is my cousin! Regarded as the best talent evaluator in NFL history, Bill Polian is my third cousin and my grandmother's second cousin! If there is an Irish gene for loving football, Bill and I must certainly share it. Enjoy this fun article!

Congrats Wayne Odesnik!
Gritty South African tennis pro Wayne Odesnik (seen above) was raised in South Florida and has been making tidal waves on the tour lately. He has already moved from no ranking at all just months ago to #160 in the world by winning two recent tennis challenger events - first Savannah, and then Lexington just last week. This article highlight's Odesnik's victory and his drive to return to a top 100 ranking on the ATP Tour. He credited  his support team, including his sports psychologist, after the win. Ignore the mental game at your peril. Smart players like Odesnik don't just talk about becoming mentally strong ... they do something about it!
