Sportswriter Spencer Hall, who’s a “featured contributor” for SBNation and tweets under the name “Bum Chillups,” tweeted on Monday about a speech given by inspirational speaker Eric Thomas to the N.C. State football team in August 2014.
In his tweet, Hall said that he was going to “fact check inspirational speeches for accuracy,” then tweeted about parts of the Thomas speech.
During the speech, Thomas, wearing a 1Pack1Goal T-shirt and N.C. State hat, used an anecdote comparing lions stalking prey to the process of winning to the Wolfpack team.
