Speaking publicly for the first time, the father of a 16-year-old boy from North Carolina said he last saw his son less than 24 hours before he was found dead in Milton, when they had pizza and his son was playing video games.

The next day, on Nov. 15, authorities found the body of Delvonte Tisdale beside a street in an upscale section of the Boston suburb.

Meanwhile, authorities are investigating the "remote possibility'' that the boy fell out of an airplane as it passed over Milton when the aircraft prepared to land at Boston's Logan Airport, a Massport spokesman said today.

Tisdale’s father said he had idea what to make of the theory that his son may have fallen from the wheel well of an airplane.

Authorities re investigating how the teenager made it the 900 miles to Milton, where he had no known ties. Milton police have said his body was mutilated.

Massport spokesman Phil Orlandella today said Massport is now checking records to see what flights and what type of aircraft passed over Milton last Monday night. Arriving flights heading to Runway 4R cross Milton, he said.

Looks like he did in fact stow away on an airliner and fell out at some point... sad.

BOSTON (AP) - A Massachusetts prosecutor said Friday it's likely that a North Carolina teen whose mutilated body was found in a Boston suburb fell from the sky after stowing away in an airplane's wheel well.

Norfolk District Attorney William Keating cited evidence including a handprint in the wheel well, clothes strewn along the plane's flight path and an autopsy report indicating the teen fell "from a significant height."

Freezes and asphyxiates at 30,000 feet up and then falls out as the plane starts landing?

Yep wheel well isnt pressurized and there isnt even doors on the rear landing wheels. Small area of to the side he could sit but he was most likely dead long before the landing wheels came down.

There was a little girl, after watching the first Harry Potter movie, thought it would be fun to fly. She went to the closet, got the broom, climbed up on the counter and leaped off. Broke an arm if I remember. I would say that some kids are just stupid, but if you watch America's Funniest Home Videos or Jackass, I have to revise that.

Some people are just stupid! Or else they didn't pay attention in Physics Class.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
