shut your whore mouth.  we still have 2 incredible games today, and then the circus in 2 weeks.

[BigOrange1 6,611]

the only time of year that actually sucks sports-wise is the end of the nba finals (mid june) - start of the college football season (late august/early september).

this year we have the olympics from july 24 - august 9 to help cover some of that gap.  college football will be back before we know it.

14 more days until the darkness begins.  Thread is premature Pessimistification.

Hockey, March Madness, the Astros, and college baseball are fun; but not the same...  c'mon August!!!

Plus Euro 2020 will fill up most of June and early July.  There'll be plenty to watch this summer.

What is this about?

[dingleberryswitzer 2,724]

It's a bright sunny day in South Texas.  Why don't some of you go outside and breath in the sweet fresh pollinated air, get some sun in your flabby white chests and try to enjoy something other than young men in tights bashing their heads into each other.  At least until 3pm today's games start.

I’ll take it, but no substitute for a glorious Saturday with games going all day long.

XFL,  so I can watch Stoops lose in Dallas.

People complaining about the off-season need to get out more.

[Wiler77 1,628]

I love this part of the year.  I get so much done around the house, play with the kids, get in some good rides, etc.  And it's fucking glorious outside.

Anyone depressed about the end of CFB season needs to re-evaluate their life.

EuroCup 2020, think of the World Cup, but it's only a tournament for the European nations.

My kids are 6 and 3, I haven’t been able to watch a whole day of football in over 5 years.

To a much lesser extent, I will be watching the XFL.  Minor League baseball and football can still be fun.

I agree.  I will gladly watch the XFL if the play on the field is good.  I can enjoy any football game that is competitive with even moderate scoring. However the AAF last year was an utter dumpster fire in regards to quality football.  I suspect the XFL will be the same.

Yeah I can't stand the NBA but the Premier League/March Madness/Euros/Olympics is a really nice set of events to watch.

I like some of the rules making the O to be aggressive. That will liven it up a bit.

Kickoffs will be interesting to watch as well.

Pegging seems like a questionable escalation.

[DFW Horn 6,650]

More than a few of you knuckleheads should take up golf.

I'd rather watch old people eat than the XFL.

It's a bold strategy, cotton.
