This is what’s left of the Pacific Palisades. The mall survived. Most everything else is gone. Homes, apartment complexes… businesses.

Rip Bill Melton! I’m really sorry to hear this news. Bill and I shared many nights in studio talking baseball. He really knew how to light up a room. I loved his humor and stories. When he dropped Laddy on you you knew something funny was coming. God Bless Rest in peace Bill. 🙏🏾

Florida officials are asking people to “do one thing for us” when they return home after evacuating from Hurricane Milton: “Take out your phone, take some pictures.”
Officials say they specifically want people to capture the high water marks inside and outside their homes.

Good Lord:
Wittenberg University will be taking “extreme precautions” in response to an email that threatened an on-campus shooting Sunday, according to university officials.
“The message targeted Haitian members of our community,” a statement released Saturday from the university said. “ Wittenberg Police are cooperating with the Springfield Police Division and the FBI to investigate this threat.”

The Democrats are again having their presidential convention in Chicago and demonstrators are again expected.
My dad covered the 1968 DNC riots for @chicagotribune, and he passed on this memory (thankfully, I’ll be using Uber when I’m there)

This throw by Caleb Williams is more difficult than it seems and shows why he is a special talent ABOVE AND BELOW HIS SHOULDERS. Great ballsmanship on the fake, pump fake freezes the defender and buys time, then throws a 40 YARD FROZEN ROPE without getting downhill to his target.
