Bobby Orr (4) played his first #NHL game 60 years ago yesterday - Oct. 19, 1966 - as the #NHLBruins hosted the #RedWings at #Boston Garden. Here, we have rookie coach Harry Sinden standing in back of (L-R) Tom Williams, Pit Martin and Orr. Martin, the following May, would go to #Chicago in the lopsided trade for Phil Esposito. #Detroit #Blackhawks #Leafs

Paul George was looking scary in the first NBA game of the season 💯

Despite the loss, he dropped 38 points, the most by a Celtics player in their debut EVER.

100 years ago, thirteen black men put together their savings and founded Safe Bus Company, making it the largest black owned bus company at that time.

It was formed in Winston-Salem to serve the black neighborhoods due to segregation and operated till 1972.

Thirteen Black men pooled their life savings to purchase $100,000 in stock, forming Safe Bus Co., Inc. on May 26, 1926. The company quickly grew into the largest African American–owned bus company in the nation.

Safe Bus expanded rapidly and was once described as the largest Black-owned transportation company in the world. By 1955, the company grossed $825,000. At its peak, it carried approximately 15,000 passengers per day, earned $18,000 weekly, and employed 75 people.

Early fares began at five cents and increased as the company expanded. The fleet grew from 35 to 42 buses, serving roughly 20 percent of the city. Black bus drivers earned between $1.60 and $2.50 per hour—wages that exceeded those of many schoolteachers at the time.

By 1968, Safe Bus provided transportation across the entire city. However, following integration, the company experienced a sharp decline in ridership. Changing social attitudes and increased competition led to significant financial losses.

In 1972, stockholders voted to sell Safe Bus to the city. The Winston-Salem Transit Authority then assumed responsibility for public transportation, marking the end of one of the most successful Black-owned transit companies in American history.

Today, NFL star Azeez Al-Shaair honored Maryam Ghanem, a little girl from Gaza who was rescued from her burning house after watching both her parents burn to death following an Israeli airstrike.

This marks five weeks of Azeez honoring Palestinian children. This marks five weeks of fines from the NFL. This marks five weeks of Azeez not caring about the fines.

He has said that a human life is “priceless” compared to any financial penalty.
