so strong and security standpoint from moving people around and getting people around in a secure city and felt good about it. >> they love the venue wells fargo and love big parking lot for a nice till gating party and easy access to press close to proximity to airport and so the city sold itself. >> by the time the convention arrives 20 16 the city would have had vast practice in moving large amounts of people around. the pope will draw expected 2 million people. >> it's nothing we can't hand. >> and there's money needed to provide all policeman power and over time. but mayor nutter expect a federal grant to help pay for it and if need be, fundraising to cover the costs. we're live outside the wells fargo center, i'm dann cuellar, "channel 6 action news." >> thank you dap. needless to say "action news" will have continuing coverage of the major announcement from now through next july you can always reads about the latest on

>> michael carter williams is sixers corner stone piece. there's no sense arguing with that. he pulled out of the all star game. teammate robert covington will replace anymore saturday's rising star challenge. six days until pitchers and catchers report to clearwater. they'll likely dump more players in the quest to rebuild.

one expert feels it will be a long time until they turn it around. >> the worry this is a team that will not win a lot of games and it's so far from being good again. i know pat gillick said two years. i would say the perception around the sport is, it will take a lot longer than that. i don't know if he can even see at this point when the phillies are cape am of being a playoff team again. >> sobering. >> thank you ducis. >> "jimmy kimmel live" followed by "nightline".
