Weekend winners
› College football coaches. If you are bad (Brian Kelly), you get a buyout. If you are good (Lane Kiffin), you are about to get a monster raise. If you are elite (Ryan Day and Kirby Smart), every single carousel allows you to walk into your boss’s office and humbly note that the new guy at Red Stick or Happy Valley or Gainesville is making X, and walk out.
› Playoff baseball. World Series Game 3 tonight in a 1-1 series. Good stuff.
› Colts skill players. Yes, it was against the Titans, who are dreadful, but at least they are dreadful and young.
