This time between the end of college baseball and the beginning of college football is a TV sports desert for me. I was scanning through the channels to find something sports related that seemed interesting to me and ran across fricking FLAG FOOTBALL!. That shite was pretty bad until it got even worse when one of the teams was actually wearing HELMETS!. Complete sports bizzaro world! Can’t wait for college football to fill up all the telecasts again. GO TIGERS!

Yeah, MLB gotta love the fact that they’re the only thing in sports worth watching right now. “The only game in town” for true sports fans.

It's a tough time for sports, no doubt. Thankfully, we have a couple UFC's to keep us entertained and August is right around the corner.

Well, if you pull the flag too hard, it might cause...never mind.

the MLB season is far too long. 162 games, so each one has little meaning. Very little action and very little emotion on the field.

ESPN2 must've been digging deep into their content bench .

Some of the main card for UFC 318 was dull but the early prelims and prelims were all bangers! Super exciting fights and I think all but like 1-2 of them were finishes of some kind.

yet multiple races come down to 1 game (even an extra game) at the end of the season.

only 50ish series per team though, the games don’t last 4 hours anymore and there’s been a good influx of talent, MLB is the best it’s been since the early 2000’s imo and mlb.tv is by far the best sports streaming service out there.

I'm watching more golf.

My wife says it's like a sleeping pill with a screen. So what is she complaining about?

Most frustrating thing for me is that rounds 1&2 of golf matches are on Paramount or ???, then rounds 3&4 are on a major network. End up watching only 3&4.

I think August is the worst month, college football is near, and you start counting down the days until football starts. Feening to hear "Coming to Your City".... lol
