Worst Time of the Year

Enjoy the NBA playoffs because we are almost upon the worst time of the year. That awful stretch of time when there is no NBA, NFL, NHL, college basketball, college football, or even smaller collegiate sports such as volleyball, lacrosse, or rugby. Baseball is all that is left, and even then all you get is meaningless uneventful games with playoffs still months away.

All that being said here are 5 reasons why this summer will be better than most.


Fantasy Football - FF has hit its height. It's no longer a guilty pleasure, but embraced by the casual football fan. As such new articles regarding draft strategy will periodically be released on the internet.





The Lebron Sweepstakes - This is the biggest free agent summer in recent history. Just about every great player can opt out of their contract. There will be a lot of movement and a lot of fun stories to follow.






Tiger Woods Redemption - It will be interesting to see if Tiger can get his game back.






Conference Realignment - the Big 10, Pac 10, and MWC are all looking to expand. The Big 12 and WAC are going to get screwed. How will your team fair?










The World Cup - the greatest spectacle in sports. Regardless if you like soccer or not, this is the most important sporting event. National pride will be on the line. U.S. v. England: The revolutionary war continues! It's going to be good.

  2. I'm pretty miffed by how MWC snubbed Boise State from joining its conference. That just adds to the risk that they may end up in the PAC-10. I believe no matter what they are a relevant team. GG MWC. HOWEVER, if the PAC-10/Big 10 do succeed in drawing out top BIG 12 teams and disbanding the conference, that could potentially pave a way for MWC to absorb an MU or Kansas and hopefully Boise State and potentially gain an auto BCS bid...

    Hey it could happen... MCWORLD!

  3. Tiger: Until he gets over his marriage and returns to his inner chi by feeding his sex addiction to the maximum extent possible, I think it's going to take awhile for him to get back to his form. Yes, you thought I was going to say "save his marriage," but Elin knows better than to go back to him. Let's just forget about that option. He's toast, but I think sex addiction alone won't do it. He needs something of a trophy wife or marriage-by-name-only (e.g. Bill Clinton) to put the passion and excitement back into cheating, and thus place his entitlement and confidence in accomplishing anything back into full swing, and giving power back to his game. It's a pact with the devil, but it's the winning formula that's worked for him.
