Everything is different this season.
I haven't been able to/haven't chosen to post every week of the season. But I ran across this story and knew that it was interesting enough to merit taking some time to put it up there as a way of distracting you from watching college football on Saturday.
And . . . yes . . . I know that I am counter-programming college football with . . . college football-related content. But this is more history and art-driven content than it is about Xs and Os and defensive schemes and whether your team is winning or losing in the conference. So I think it is a defensible strategy for driving your eyeballs elsewhere. (And what did they say once a long time ago--"Only Nixon could go to China."?*)
And it's just genuinely interesting!
So, yes . . . watch the video.
And then read the story that provides even more detail: https://uni-watch.com/2024/10/16/illinois-football-to-debut-throwbacks-and-incredible-faux-leather-helmets-saturday-vs-michigan/
And, heck, football games are long. So read it twice!
And that's it for this weekend.
Just remember that you'll never get back the time you spend in front of the TV watching your alma mater. And they won't know you are doing it. (And if they somehow DO know that you are doing it . . . well, then that is the basis of another week's future FC-P.)
*Look it up.
