Good for them. Their chapel and grounds is about the only thing I remember about Atchison.

So it really is Butker? I thought this was a typo of Butler. A kicker and his name is Butker. Kick his ass, nuns.

Not just butker but the entire American catholic hierarchy… Nice reminder that not everyone has lost their minds.

Maybe the lesson is that people who make a living kicking a ball are not necessarily a great choice for graduation speeches.

Butker’s speech was a great example of what happens when you invest so heavily in package-deal ethics that you forget anyone doesn’t.
