“More recently, few stations in the country have live, local overnight shows, so Les’ presence was very important. He was underappreciated. Personally, Les was like everybody’s unique brother or cousin. He had his eccentricities, as do we all, but he was very likable. No one didn’t like Les Grobstein. Heck, he became friends with Lee Elia, and that has lasted for decades.”

Eberflus finished third in 2018 in the NFL’s Assistant Coach of the Year voting. Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio won the honor that season with Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Wink Martindale finishing as the runner-up. This season, Eberflus oversaw a Colts defense that led the AFC in takeaways (33) while finishing in the top 10 in the league in points allowed (21.5 ppg). The Colts had three defenders named to the initial Pro Bowl rosters last month — defensive lineman DeForest Buckner, linebacker Darius Leonard and cornerback Kenny Moore II.

Dodds joined the Colts as the vice president of player personnel, and they promoted him a year later to assistant general manager. Dodds worked for 10 seasons (2007-16) for the Seattle Seahawks, becoming a senior personnel executive in the final two years. Dodds started in the pro personnel department in 2007 and moved to college scouting in the south and central part of the country, eventually becoming a cross-checker and then a national scout. Dodds broke into the NFL with the Oakland Raiders and spent four seasons with them. In college, Dodds was a student coach at Texas A&M-Kingsville.

The Cubs even decided to hold their 1995 convention at the Chicago Hilton and Towers without players. President Andy MacPhail, general manager Ed Lynch and manager Jim Riggleman were introduced to much applause, as were former Cubs Bill Buckner, Andy Pafko, Bill Madlock, Jody Davis and Leon Durham. The loudest cheers were reserved for broadcaster Harry Caray, who was as popular as any player.

You don’t have to be a sophisticated football evaluator to understand what the Bills did Saturday night was extraordinary and rare. They possessed the ball eight times and assembled an eye-popping drive chart: touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, “victory formation.”

Medical workers tried to improve Saint’s respiration, then sent her to a hospital — which sent her back to the nursing home, before she was returned to the hospital, where she died. Saint’s ordeal came after her daughter, a registered nurse, said the home had been slow, in her opinion, to diagnose her condition and failed to treat it aggressively. The daughter, Marlene Bryan, filed a complaint over her mother’s treatment with the Illinois Department of Public Health.

Please, bring this up to your daughter. Don’t overwhelm her with your complicated emotional reaction, but ask her, “Hey, if I can find a nice photo of the two of us from your childhood — and let you pick out the frame — would you be willing to find some space on your wall for it?”

“When you’ve been to the Super Bowl the last two years and you walk off that field with a loss last year, you want to go back and get that revenge, get that win,” Mahomes said. “So for us, we understand it’s a hard division — the AFC (East), we have the Bills coming here this next week and we’re going to have to play our best football. We’re just excited for the journey, we’ll stay with the process and I’m glad we’re playing at Arrowhead next week.”

“We did some good things,” Brady said. “We’re just going to have to keep doing what we did today. Everyone’s got to touch it, make some explosive plays. Did a good job possessing it, the defense played great, so it was a great team win. Special teams played awesome — one of the best days we had on special teams all year.”

Dr. Edward Huang, an infectious disease specialist, and Kim Chhay, who has worked as a hospital pharmacist, filed a complaint in Cook County court last month asking a judge to reverse a Chicago Board of Education decision to seek tuition reimbursement and kick their son out of his West Rogers Park classical school. The couple’s attorney, Steven Glink, said the board reached conclusions for its own convenience in this case.
