2-day sports drought!


The Blue Demon? This is one of the Top stories on ESPN today




Tonight's sports schedule: Boise St. vs. Tulsa.

That's it.

In one of the best months in sports where football, baseball and basketball all come into play, none of them played last night and will not play tonight either.

It was such a great weekend for sports; college football was great, the baseball playoffs were exciting and they all clinched and Monday night football was last-possession game. We even got a glimpse of the Lakers in preseason, but after Monday Night Football there's been nothing.

I was basically forced to watch UFC replays all night becuase that was all that was on last night.

Why has there been nothing to watch these last two days? We're in the thick of the playoffs and they're basically getting almost a week off now! I'm sure the players don't mind the rest, but it's a borderline vacation. Thanks again to TBS' tv scheduling, it seems that the game days are concrete whether they go the distance or it's a sweep.

ESPN has had to do some actual reporting becuase there has been no games, but even then it looks like they're scramblling. After they're done talking about John Wooden's 99th birthday, Charlie Davies' car crash, and Rush Limbaugh trying to buy the Rams they've been showing lame youtube videos and are previewing NFL games on a Wednesday.

Even the MLB Network doesn't know what to do. There are two games this week and it seems they're overanalyzing their former analyses which they had already overanlyzed. They're even trying to talk about next year to fill space. The LCS haven't even started and they're trying to talk about next year. The teams themselves aren't even thinking about next year and the analysts are supposed to convince us that they think they know what's going to happen?

Watch Boise State tonight if you want, but I suggest you look for a good movie or dare i say, spend time with your family.

A sports world without games leads to craziness. Good thing the Dodgers play tomorrow.
