Today's tip of the cap is to a basketball player at the University of Missouri.
Yep,you read it correctly. Mizzou.
He tweeted this:
Kim English @Englishscope24 Close
I pray to God that it's no truth to Mizzou fans making shirts saying "No Mom Tom". That is a disgrace and an embarrassment to this Univ!
It seems that some misery fans were making up tee shirts bearing "NO MOM TOM" across the front as a comment about Thomas Robinson, power forward from KANSAS who lost both grandparents and his mother a year ago.
Sports rivalries sometimes get out of hand, and I find it encouraging that this player from Missouri stood up for the right thing for his team and his university.
Mr English...well done.
