It’s almost October 1st and I wonder what will be the October election surprise?

October surprises are less useful with all the early voting though.

Illini put up a tough fight in a tough venue against Penn State. Hope they can bounce back against Purdue after their bye week.

Loved seeing the Bears get back to .500 on Sunday. Hope they can keep it up.

Season is mercifully over for Sox fans. Do you see a pattern here? 2022 81-81 2023 61-101 2024 41-121…. 2025 21-141???

That would be a one win improvement but percentage and loss wise worse than the 1899 Cleveland Spiders.

If the Sox are destined to be bad for a long time, they might as well adopt “Hey Nineteen” as their 2025 theme song and go for the Spiders record. Maybe that will force Jerry out.
