TIPSHEET

KNOW THIS

The anticipation of the thing is often much greater than the thing itself. That said, all the folks squealing with glee over the start of college football season are not wrong. It's good to have it back.

WATCH THIS

Trevor May has been taking baby steps in his starts this season. None of the three has been very good, but they have been getting better. He'll try to keep improving for the Twins against the Orioles (6:05 p.m., FSN).
