Can Purdy start for the season opener on September 10? When asked, Purdy demurred and said, “We haven’t had any conversation like that. It’s ‘Hey, how can I be great today?’ Let’s get these reps. Let’s get these mental reps. And let’s continue to grow.” [ESPN]
  • The city of Hayward says its computer network has been restored after a cyberattack this month, which we now know was a ransomware attack.

  • City of San Jose workers may vote August 1 on whether to go on strike, which would create quite a mess at city facilities like libraries and the airport. [Hoodline]
