The Hair Does the Talking

As a boy, I got into the habit of watching my father eat. Our dinner table was round, and, on the nights when it was all of us, four kids and two parents, my mother and father would sit on one side and I would sit directly across from them.

Mike Macdonald lets the Ravens defense do his talking

admin

If Mike Macdonald’s ascent to one of the NFL’s hottest coordinators and a legitimate head-coaching candidate feels meteoric, that’s probably because he has never embraced the art of self-promotion.

He likes to call himself a “steward” of head coach John Harbaugh’s vision and will

The gong chimes. The silent retreat begins. Earlier today I handed over my mobile phone to the teacher for safe-keeping. That deep bong means I’m in, we’re off — no speaking or interaction with the outside world for a week.

Around me, my 28 fellow retreatants (a mixture of ages, 26 women, two men) look a bit scared.
