    Tonight is the biggest PSU game since 1986. Against an old foe. I bleed blue & white. Many happy memories inside Beaver Stadium. I was at the last Orange Bowl in ‘06 when we beat FSU. Let’s get a big one tonight. No matter what, the program is poised for a strong future. #WeAre

    Spending a terrific #FathersDay with my family. We added Noelle Violet Thackara on Saturday at 4:56AM. Welcome aboard! Mom Lauren & Noelle are great. Marshall is excited to spoil his new sister. It has truly been a blessed Father’s Day. Hope you can enjoy it with your family too!

    Facebook is fun this morning. After writing a description of my forecast for tomorrow, I've been accused of both "downplaying" and "hyping" the storm tomorrow. Funny. It's my job to give you a forecast. That forecast is what I think is going to happen. I neither downplay or hype.

    PENN STATE FORECAST: Saturday's forecast is improving for @PennStateFball home opener vs. Bowling Green. Showers should be east by kickoff with peeks of sun during the game. Tailgaters may get wet, but game time looks better! Let's hope! CC @psufootballu

    Another classic on @finebaum - caller says “I have a source high up at Auburn, in the admin, that says Harsin is out at the end of the year.” Paul challenges him on the source. “I took a journalism class!” Mid-season form already and we haven’t kicked yet! Paul is the best.

    Happy #NationalSpousesDay to my wonderful wife. She puts up with a lot. I’m very thankful she chose me and continues to choose me. She’s not on Twitter because she’s smart. She won’t see this…but I’m sending my love. #27Daybreak #SocialSip

    Yesterday’s socially distant walk. Someday this will be quite the story for her. How are you coping/spending the days?

    It was great seeing the legend last week. Chuck and I reminisced and had a full look back at one of the worst severe weather days locally. Here is that story: Chuck Rhodes recalls Campbelltown tornado 20 years later abc27.com/news/top-stori…
