Reporter let the record show that after the funeral the pittsburg mallards went on to philadelphia and won their National Championship<\/a> pop warner game in a runaway. They never did give the game ball to john jr. To this day frank meyers struggles to remember the score. The game at that point was secondary. Reporter 50 years later, and football in pittsburg remains as big as ever. Much of that is due to jim camuts and his players, who come back and now coach. Another generation to keep up the tradition and history. Reporter it is a legacy honed through five decades, one tempered on a cold november weekend in 1963, when the toughest guy they ever knew had the presence of mind to put football, tragedy, and life in perspective.

We reported on this. Tom kim and Joseph Turian<\/a> won that hefty prize. But other competitors claim they should have been disqualified. They claim they started work on their app before the competition was even announced. The rules say thats a violation because the entries have to be developed as part of the hackathon itself. According to the San Francisco<\/a> business times, kim said they started work on the app after the contest was announced. But critics say the website they developed was up and running weeks earlier. San franciscobased salesforce, which sponsored that competition, has not commented on any of this yet. Well, thanksgiving came early for this gruch San Francisco<\/a> school kids.

Well, next year you will not see the 49ers on monday night football in their first season at levi stadium. Our media partner the San Jose Mercury<\/a> news reports that all the 49ers home games will be played on sunday in their inaugural season at the new stadium. Local officials are apparently concerned about traffic jams. 70,000 fans would create on freeways and city streets during a weekday evening rush hour. Officials are hoping to debut levis stadium on abcs sunday night football. And the niners are expecting to request monday night Football Games<\/a> in 2015 and beyond. And theyll be back on monday night football. No doubt. Well, its only road games on nvl mvl. Theyve got to get the kinks worked out. And you dont want to go through the dry run and get the one season down before you go and change it up. But lets talk nba. This is the one thing the warriors did not have coming up on abc 7 news at 11 00, latebreaking developments on the security scare we talked about tonight at l. A. X. Plus after losing his wife to cancer an east bay teacher is left to raise his four adopted children alone. How the community is coming together to give back to a man who has given so much. And the countdown has begun. Less than a week until black friday. 7 on your sides Michael Finney<\/a> is here with the cant miss deals and the steals out there as you hit the shopping centers. Those stories and a lot more coming up on abc 7 news at 11 00 over on channel 7. Im going to go, dan. This time of the year i hate all the holiday crowds and all the pushing and the shoving. I hope i dont hurt anyone. Like rhoda on the Mary Tyler Moore<\/a> show. Oh, my goodness. Im doing material. No, that was another night w curry for the warriors, missing his second straight game following a concussion. I feel concussed now. The warriors in l. A. Facing the kobeless lakers. Kur gli street clothes. Warriors only dressed ten tonight. Warriors shorthanded and could not stop nick young, who was open with jordan farmar. Young had 19 points. Having the game of his life. How about andrew bogut . A little show and go and to the hole. Nicely done. But pau gasol with 16 at the half puts bogut in the torture chamber here. Up and under. That is nice. Gasol with 22. Lakers led by nine at the half. This is the real concern. Andre iguodala grabs his left hamstring. Its a strain. Limped to the locker room. Would not return. In the fourth young with the steal coast to coast. Right now in the Fourth Quarter<\/a> 9481 lakers. Warriors in danger of losing their 11th straight in l. A. To the lakers. How about some College Football<\/a> . David sails looking to become bowl eligible which win over navy at spartan stadium. San jose state up 30. Second quarter fales hits tucker wide open there. 90. Navy comes back. Keenan reynolds with the option play. Middy leading 1716. Fales. Fade pattern to tyler winston. Spartans would go ahead but navy on a long touchdown run now leading 3130 late in the Fourth Quarter<\/a>. After being upset by usc, can stanford head coach david shaw convince his cardinal that the big game really is a big game for them . Stanford an overwhelming favorite. Favored by 32, in fact. In the 116th edition of this bay area rivalry. Stanfords 82 after the loss to usc. They need to beat cal this week and then notre dame next week and also hope that oregon loses one more time in order to take back control in the pac12 north and have a shot at the rose bowl. The cardinal have won three straight big games. They face a cal squad thats only got one win all season, giving up 44 points per game. On paper this should be an easy one. But the big game not like a regur game on or off campus. Energy thats seen around campus both here and in berkeley before the game is pretty unique. Its a great experience. Probably one of the best rivalries in the country. And its an honor to represent stanford in that rivalry. Meanwhile, cals at 110, still looking for their first pac10 win under new head coach sonny dykes. Theyve lost 13 starters to injury. Thats part of the problem. Cals lone victory came against portland state. Dykes knows that the pain of those losses can be diminished if the bears can find some way to upset the cardinal. This would be a way to end on a positive note. Stanfords obviously got a great Football Team<\/a>. It will be a challenge for us. But our kids are excited. Weve got a great week of practice. Preparing well. Weve just got to go out and play well. Two incredible academic institutions that have great tradition and great pride.

Looking for a careerdefining victory. Well, they needed a oneday extension, but the raiders have sold out their home game sunday against tennessee. So the game will be televised locally. Rookie matt mcgloin will make his second start. Wont have his best receiver, though. Denarius moore out with a shoulder injury. Hes leading the raiders with 37 receptions and a teamhigh nine touchdowns. The niners have rewarded cornerback Tremaine Brock<\/a> an extension, 7 million guaranteed. Started the year as reserved but has been terrific. Two picks in his first start against houston, four picks in his last six games, its claeea the 49ers view him as a starter going forward. And today marks the oneyear anniversary of one of the most infamous plays in nfl history, now known as the butt fumble in the jetspatriots game. Mark sanchez ran into his own offensive lineman. Oops. Thats not good for you. The patriots scooped up the football and scored. And with that the term butt fumble was born. You dont want to really be identified with that. That is Mark Sanchezs<\/a> legacy play at this point, unfortunately. Well, hes also hurt. Hes been replace the by geno smith with the jets. You want to have another play to replace that as you dont want to go out with that. Thanks very, very much. That is this edition of abc 7 news at 9 00 here on tv 20. Thank you for watching.
