Theme: apologies from apt speakers
Good Ones:
Proud liberal’s apology…or is it? IDIDNOTHINGRIGHT [all theme entries were excellent but I liked this the best]
L.A. Times section? LOS
Smashing target ATOM [especially good if you’re a Brit]
Ball girls DEBS [not tennis aides]
111 digits ONES
Prevent littering? SPAY
Start to foam? STYRO
Muscular jerks SPASMS [love this one, perhaps said by those with poor physiques]
Who knew?:
Indian cattle is ZEBU; and crossed with PREZ, which could have been PRES, the cattle could have been SEBU, or XEBU. Had to guess on this one.

BTW and IMHO: This is the most enjoyable puzzle in a long time and will be among the best of the year.
