Kurtenbach Mailbag: Answering your questions on the SF Giants’ free agency issues, Draymond Green’s anger

Published Sun, 16 Feb 2025 16:10:19 GMT

It’s been a while since we did a mailbag, so let’s dive right in.What did you make of Buster Posey’s comments on free agents being afraid of San Francisco?» You mean the company line?Posey was not the first to blame the city of San Francisco for the Giants’ high-profile free agency failures when he made such comments to the Athletic. Hell, Farhan Zaidi preemptively blamed the city before free agency even started.And because this tactic works, the Giants will keep using it.But it’s a diversion from the real issue.Now, there is no doubt plenty of negativity towards San Francisco floating around these days.The city and region are seen as the epicenter of liberal values in this country, and because of that, a pretty nasty negative PR campaign is being waged against it by bad actors trying to prove a perverse point.At the same time, it’s true that you can’t walk prospective players too far down Market Street. Oh, and avoid that area over there, t...

Bay Area rain totals: Storm expected to hit in waves "Keep those umbrellas handy!" advised KRON4 Meteorologist Kyla Grogan. "We have more showers expected through this evening and overnight. Tuesday will be another unsettled day, but our showers will be far less intense. Wednesday I expect another robust round of rain to come our way as the second low pressure system moves in. There is still a bit of uncertainty of the track of the Wednesday system.  If it stays offshore a bit more than projected we will see lower rain totals. But if it moves ashore or very close to the coast, I expect we'll see significant rain from it."  Bay Area holiday we...

FDA finds ‘extremely high’ lead levels in cinnamon at Ecuador plant that made tainted fruit pouches

Published Sun, 16 Feb 2025 16:10:19 GMT

U.S. food inspectors found “extremely high” levels of lead in cinnamon at a plant in Ecuador that made applesauce pouches tainted with the metal, the Food and Drug Administration said Monday. The recalled pouches have been linked to dozens of illnesses in U.S. kids. Cinnamon tested from the plant had lead levels more than 2,000 times higher than a maximum level proposed by the FDA, officials said. The samples came from ground or powdered cinnamon from Negasmart, an Ecuadorian company that supplied the spice to Austrofoods, which made the pouches. The applesauce pouches were sold under three brands — WanaBana, Schnucks and Weis. Officials with Austrofoods did not respond to requests for comment about the investigation. FDA said lead has not been detected in WanaBana products made without cinnamon and sold in the U.S. The agency continues to investigate how the cinnamon was contaminated. Jim Jones, who heads the agency’s human foods program, said in an interview with Politico last wee...

(AP) — Sean Payton insists he and Russell Wilson are good despite his tongue-lashing of Denver’s quarterback during the Broncos’ 42-17 loss to the Detroit Lions.Payton said he didn’t need to hash things out with Wilson or address the blowup with his team.“Not at all,” the Broncos’ first-year head coach said Monday, two days after the defeat at Detroit. “First off, we haven’t had a team meeting and Russ and I have a great relationship. No, not at all.”The Broncos’ path to the playoffs — where they haven’t been in eight years — grew much more arduous over the weekend when they lost and the Bengals, Colts, Texans and Bills all won to get to 8-6. Also, the Chiefs and Browns both improved to 9-5.Denver left itself without any wiggle room over the final three weeks, when the Broncos will face the Patriots (3-11) and the Chargers (5-9) at home and the Raiders (6-8) on the road.“It’s gonna take three wins,” Payton said.P...
