6:25 pm
understand. veterans can say, hey, this is what i did when i served and i can still contribute. >> we're not so different from each other after all, we all want to have a better life. we all want to live a life free from tyranny and oppression. and i feel that it's important for us to share our stories as veterans. so we can all move forward together as a community and as a people. >> a people united and thankful for all who served at santa clara university. dustin dorsey, abc7 news. >> very nice. and from all of us at abc7 to all veterans, we are deeply grateful. thank you for your service. >> thank you very much. and tonight, a new special chronicles. abc news correspondent bob woodruff's journey back to iraq where a roadside bomb nearly took his life back in 2006. woodruff spoke with abc7 about what inspired him to return to iraq. >> i've been trying to push to go back for a long time. you know, i kind of say that our our assignment was not finished. you know, we were yanked out of that town against our will, out of that country without finishing

6:49 pm
along the coastline. and that's for a stretch of several days. the accuweather seven day forecast on our veterans tomorrow and the weather is going to be nice for veterans day continuing sunday as we head into next week. level one system will bring us opportunities for the rain and certainly will be sweater weather as we cool it off. dan and i'm okay. >> sure will. thank you, sandy. all right. >> what do you got for us, larry beil, contra tsay. >> that's what i'm bringing tonight. we like it. jim harbaugh, no stranger to controversy. the former 49 ers and stanford head coach is now technically on suspension, even as the big ten comes down with sanctions following that sign stealing investigation. that's next on sports
6:50 pm
6:51 pm
spend countless hours volunteering to teach people how to reach their financial goals. it felt good. it felt like i could take on the whole world. my dry eye's made me a burning, stinging, 5-times-a-day,... ...makeup smearing drops user. i want another option that's not another drop. tyrvaya. it's not another drop. it's the first and only nasal spray for dry eye. tyrvaya treats the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease fast by helping your body
6:52 pm
produce its own real tears. common side effects include sneezing, cough, and throat and nose irritation. relying only on drops? not me. my own real tears are my relief. ask your eye doctor about tyrvaya. seven now abc seven sports with larry beil. >> good evening. the big ten conference has suspended university of michigan football coach jim harbaugh so he can't be on the sidelines for the final three games of the regular season. the penalty stemming from a signal stealing scandal, it's really just turned into this huge controversy. look, stealing signs has been going on like since the cavemen, the beginning of sports. really the problem here is the way michigan stole the signs. they had a staffer who was going to opponents games to decipher their signals. he was in person that is a violation of big ten sportsmanship rules with the league saying michigan conducted an impermissible in-person scouting operation over multiple years, resulting in an unfair competitive advantage that compromised the integrity of
6:53 pm
competition. wolverines playing penn state tomorrow, the school is going to try to get a temporary restraining order that would allow harbaugh, the ex niners and stanford coach to be on the sidelines. so we'll see how that plays out. 49 ers play the jaguars critical game on sunday in jacksonville. sounds like it's still kind of unclear if trent williams is actually going to be able to play or the all pro left tackle has missed the past two games with a lingering ankle injury. did some light practice work this week, but it really sounds like trent is still pretty iffy for sunday quarterback brock purdy certainly hopes that williams and deebo samuel are both available, but kyle shanahan not quite sure about trent. >> i think he's real questionable to be playing. >> that's what my eyes see too. >> i mean, we got tomorrow, tomorrow, saturday. if it's no tomorrow, then we'll wait to game time and god, guys, i'm not talking anymore about our guys injuries. he's questionable. well obviously you get the ball in the in the debo's hands and he can do some crazy stuff and help our team out big time. so
6:54 pm
to have debo back would be huge. you know, give a spark and bring that energy to our offense. it's huge. >> after playing seven of their last eight games on the road, the warriors back home for a nice stretch of six straight games at chase center, they host the cavaliers and timberwolves on saturday and sunday. so big weekend, the arrival of chris paul, by the way, has changed. the warriors offense. they're running less and they're turning it over a lot less. >> we were number one in pace last year and number one in turnovers and we didn't like that combination. we wanted to be more middle of the pack in both and i think getting chris aboard is helping us cut our turnovers back. obviously, our first group has been on one of the best five man units, if not the best, over the last two years and with a great defensive rating, warriors debut their city edition court and city edition uniforms for the first time tomorrow when they take on
6:55 pm
cleveland. >> this is a really cool time lapse of the arena and their squad getting the court ready. today, the city edition court and uniforms, part of the city calls campaign celebrating 150 years of cable cars in san francisco. that is not to be confused with the special courts they're using for the in-season tournament, which kind of looks like just imagine a whole bunch of paint cans exploding and you have just awash in colors. but it's pretty cool for tv impressionistic art. yes. by the way, giants bob melvin, new manager, hired matt williams, third base coach. and pat, the bat berle appropriately named as the hitting coach. okay. yeah so thanks, larry. >> yeah, coming up tonight on abc seven at eight, you can watch after the blast the will to survive. journalist bob woodruff returns to iraq to explore the lessons of war and visit the site of the roadside bombing that nearly took his life. that's followed by 2020 at nine. then do not miss abc seven news at 11. and remember the abc seven news is streaming 24 over seven. get the abc seven bay area app and join us whenever

you want, wherever you are. >> finally this friday a few thoughts about what really matters for the next week. the eyes of the world will quite literally be on san francisco, apec, the asia pacific economic cooperation summit begins tomorrow. a massive event as you've heard, that will bring thousands of people to the city. that includes dozens of dignitaries and world leaders, including our president and the president of china. it also includes hundreds of reporters and city officials who do not want those influential visitors. seeing what we see every day to that end, they've been cleaning things up. heather knight had a great line in her piece in the new york times today, a quote here, san francisco had the air this week of teenagers frantically cleaning up after a house party with their parents on the way home, end quote. and that is exactly right. it is a shame that it took this conference to polish some of the tarnished parts of the city for the sake of optics. but what really matters is the huge economic boost apec will create
6:57 pm
