Friday Varia and Quick Hits

It’s a fall Friday which means a chance of rain, cooling temperatures, and a tree full of apples (at least in our yard). I’m ready to enjoy some fall foliage and to lean fully into my fall routine. This weekend marks the start of the Big 10 season for my Ohio State Buckeyes with their noon tilt against Illinois. I’ll probably flip between that the Texas-Tennessee game to be honest. My mighty Spiders take on Furman and the UND team takes on Indiana State. I’m looking forward to the Eagles-Bears game on Monday night. Hopefully by then the Phillies will have clinched their wildcard spot. Right now, they’re doing all they can to make every game matter. Finally, with the F1 circus in Baku and racing on Saturday, Sunday morning will be the second Australia-South Africa ODI! In the meantime, enjoy some quick hits and varia: Past Imperfect.
