Wildfires continue to devastate California causing death and destruction throughout. With the death toll at 42 and rising, these wildfires are becoming a national issue. Thousands of homes and properties have been destroyed by fires including those of Miley Cyrus, Neil Young, Gerard Butler, and the Philadelphia Phillies coach, Gabe Kapler. The fires have also caused the LA Rams and Oakland Raiders to cancel and even change plans for practices last week. NFL spokesperson  Brian McCarthy stated late last week that, “We are monitoring conditions in California and are in close communication with the clubs and local authorities.”
