As I sit down to write your Monday links column, fall is in the air. College football has started (kinda), NFL players are making the final adjustments for the start of the season — and if you’re Andrew Luck, that means retiring. Meanwhile, Major League Baseball is finishing up the most recent iteration of the players weekend wherein the nicknames were more interesting than the uniforms (which were terrible).
Although the seasons appear ready to change, the Detroit Tigers remain the same. They held the status quo over the weekend, dropping two games of a road series against the Twins.
