bob willis, eight wickets.en became england captain, and then was that the reason he got his job with sky for 30 years? i mean, possibly. so it was a very life—changing day for him. well, he isn't an international natural wicketkeeper, is he? let's be honest about it. bob willis became a gloriously waspish pundit. i mean, standing up, he looks like a performing seal at feeding time, doesn't he? flapping away there. he perfected that persona. he came across very grumpy and opinionated. this series has been disgraceful. but in real life, he just wasn't like that. he was a very loving, gentle, listened to people, didn't talk about himself or show off about his cricket exploits or anything like that. he was a really special person and lots of people loved him. 0n the honours board at lord's, bob willis sits proudly alongside the great names of cricket. it is a source of pride for lauren — but not comfort. i am completely on my own. i have lots of lovely friends. it isn't the same. i have no—one to do nothing with.

willie, the greatest of all i grew up idolizing willie mays.et actually in new york city american airlines. it was flying back to san francisco. i just sheepishly went up to him and said mr. willie mays i was in my 20s and i want to tell you how much -- he put his arm around me and said larry, how are you? he invited me to sit with him on the flight if you can believe that. >> how school that is a great story. he is a national treasure. i saw some quotes from buster posey and brandon crawford. they were talking about willie mays coming into the clubhouse. these are players who have a fair amount of accomplishments. they are in all of him. >> his mere presence -- his presence in the clubhouse literally for the last 30 years is starting in the early 90s he was given a lifetime contract and his presence there are people that have been kind of like i was at the airport. people that have been loath to come up to him because they are in all of him and in all of what he and really beyond baseball to society. he is the willie mays. he has been around t

willie: yes, exactly.ou would see airlines have to avoid the airspace, which could be complicated. there is airspace around there that is closed or recommended not to travel through. what is important is we have to strongly condemn the actions of belarus. what they did sunday, intercepting a commercial simple craft, putting the passengers and crew of the aircraft at risk, and forcing it to diapered. i will behavior -- unacceptable behavior -- forcing it to divert. unacceptable behavior. guy: what is iata's message to its members? willie: it is important that each individual airline assess the risk associated with their operations in the airspace. it is different for each airline. they will be guided initially by the security information they get from their own people and from their documents. clearly they are -- guy: isn't that a problem though because individual airlines, it is a challenge for them to make decisions on a case-by-case basis. i remember ukraine, we saw an aircraft downed. airlines had to ma

that's willie's fate. terms of their numbers. babe ruth might have had the greatest player of all time, but nobody else wore number 3. think about the number of players who wore 24 just to be like him. whether it's bonds or ken griffey jr., all of these players, he was the standard of why they played the game and how they wanted to play the game. >> tyler, howard just mentioned briefly the element of save-o-metrics in baseball. do you think this concentration on wins against replacements, stuff like that, resulted in us watching games where it's either strikeouts or home runs, nobody hitting behind the run, no hit-and-runs any more, very few stolen bases any more. is baseball losing the popularity of its game to saber metrics? >> well, there's something to that. if you look at the way saber metrics spreads things out, it's like, well, hit a home run. that's the most valuable play you can do so that leads to a lot of strikeouts. but it's a little more complicated than that. pitchers right now are so good at

willie?k about this now with staff writer at the atlantic magazine, author of the book "twilight of democracy, seductive lure of authoritarianism" anne applebaum. other regimes will hijack planes too. authoritarian states no longer feel the need to respect passports, borders, diplomatic customs or now the rules of air traffic control. dictators are more prepared to arrest or murder political dissidents anywhere no matter what foreign laws or bureaucratic procedures might theoretically protect them. sometimes this puts pressure on other countries to help them. other times they kidnap people unassisted. the price they have to pay as a result in sanctions or in bad relations with the outside world clearly no longer bothers them. anne, that's exactly what we saw yesterday or two days ago. brazen isn't the word to use. to hijack a commercial airliner to visit land and pull a journalist off of it. what do you see in this move from lukashenko and belarus? and how does it show us what's happening aro

- the bob willis you knew? i wasn't one bob willis. _ the bob willis you knew?lly, in a way, quite a quiet man. he was able to just come up quiet man. he was able to just come up with the odd phrase or remark which actually got to the nub of any matter. it was very funny. i remember the last lunch we had, he was on top form and even though we knew he wasn't that well, he was delightful. he was a great guy. lauren obviously knew him best and i think she summed him up very well. when i used to watching on tv talking about cricket, you wanted him to be a bit acerbic and make a few funny comments. everybody in the cricket world, even if you are a batsmen and you'd had a bad cricket world, even if you are a batsmen and you'd had a had shot and bob would say it was a terrible shot, i think people respected him and his own record was phenomenal, so he was quite entitled to have a few words about the odd occasional failure. but no cricketer, no songwriter except possibly bob dylan, is infallible. and if you are in the business, you have to tell it like it is. bob was a

>> good morning, willie.ve been fighting for since right after january 6th. much of the legislation i've proposed is in the commission bill, which i was happy to see. from the start, i said, it has to be bipartisan for this country to have faith in that commission, to see it as outside the political partisan games that sometimes occur here. and as we've seen some of the false narratives and the misinformation continuing to come out of washington, out of the republican party, i think it's important that we have a bipartisan independent commission to address this. i'm from north jersey, a lot of people who were affected, some who died in 9/11, that commission i think was important to helping the nation understand the events of that day, what led up to them. how we could, as a nation, protect ourselves. and how we can heal going forward. and i hope this january 6th commission can do the same. >> congresswoman, it's jonathan lemire. and certainly, you've just stressed why this is important, why you believe this c

willie when i want to get to willie. >> he's right there. >> i see him.e it. i'll go to willie when i feel like it. so if he's going to lie about that, willie, what the hell won't he lie about? then we get to the things that matter. the vaccine. like why won't he come out and tell them people are lying about the vaccine. why woen he be aggressive on the front lines? the election, which is what we're talking about now. >> the insurrection. >> why does he keep lying about the election? why does he keep lying about the insurrection? he was the guy who inspired it. but most importantly, those people who were booing in the audience, i've got to tell you, i'm just at a loss. why are they still embracing him. liberals who are supporting him, what morons. shut up and get off my twitter feed. just shut up. and get off my twitter feed. willie, i got to tell you, i can't grasp how this happened. people i know, people i love, people who have always stood -- forget about politics but in life for what's right. people who taught their kids to do the right thing. people

it's willie geist.ck the curtain a little bit and tell us how you arrived at this day. a lot of people think, maybe we could have done this a month or two months ago. it seems like we were doing okay with vaccinations. what was it about the day that you saw or the conditions that you were looking at that said, okay this is the day we can take this step. >> it was a cdc decision. and as i have said and we have emphasized all along, willie, the cdc is a science-based organization. they accumulate data and make decisions based on the data. some people will say, well, maybe they wait a little too long or not. you can always argue that. but under these circumstances, what we were seeing over the past several weeks was a continual decline in the number of daily cases when you do a seven-day average. they're down to in the 30,000, which is about a one third diminution from a few weeks ago. number two, as more and more data come in, it becomes clear how spectacularly effective these vaccines are. i mean, every

it's willie government.you write about one piece i'm concerned about, for people to be recognized. people who may not be established at your company. you do it in a meeting, next to your boss, or next to colleagues. that's how you build your work ethic. it has real world implications for promoses and bonuses and everything else. . >> yeah. it's super interesting. it's not just when you're building your career but it has very serious implications on diversity, equity and inclusion. a recent study by future forward found 3% of african-american workers want to return full-time. their white counterparts was 21%. we found ourselves in a situation where if people prefer to stay at home and are given the option, we might find ourselves with a less diverse office. and people who are marginalized staying home will receive less recognition. . >> walter, i would love for you to comment on this moment in history. of course if you have a question for the author. . >> i certainly have a question for jon. steve jobs was ve

willie?, what did josh and sophie, as people who have been on the inside of it, seen how it works, now expressing their frustration to you, what do they suggest or recommend? because as you say, it's such a vast platform that you couldn't possibly plug all the holes in the dam as they come with people or even with an algorithm? >> reporter: josh's recommendations is that facebook moderators are employed directly by facebook. whether that would make changes or not, people can decide for themselves or figure out for themselves. i think the big thing here, willie, is that facebook has expanded so much, the big question is whether it is able to deal with these public squares around the world. billions of people. does it take more resources? you have to train people and get people with the right qualifications. is it simply too big to handle? those are questions that facebook vehemently pushes against and says that it is leaning in and solving thesis problems, particularly working with government
