I don't know many people who go out in a memorial service with a standing ovation with hundreds of people in a 10k+ seat arena, but I know of one of them.

They just concluded a wonderful live broadcast of Lauren's public memorial service. Private (family) service to follow soon. It was a great tribute. The Hiram team even attended.

Yeah of everything ESPN has done, this to me is by far the most moronic. I will be interested to see at the ESPY's what they do for her- you have got to think the V Foundation has to do something for her.

I think sad to say there's a lot more to it than just that. Lets just say 20 years ago, Jenner wouldn't be getting this award, no matter what the ratings.

This is technically OT, but it was so awesome I wanted you all to see it. Classy move by Xavier.
