This Week's Sports Schedule.

Wow.

This past weekend was amazing.

True to my word, I did not leave the couch all day Saturday and Sunday. We saw some great college games (USC-Notre Dame, Florida-Arkansas, and Texas-Oklahoma were all competitive), an extra inning ALCS game on Saturday night, some good pro games on Sunday, and the cherry on the top - the Phillies rout of the Dodgers on Sunday night.

Thank you, October!

Next week looks to be just as good (with the World Series and NBA season starting - I'm fully expecting my brain to just explode from all of the excitement) but this week looks like a bit of a lull.

Not a lot of ranked college teams playing each other, not a lot of top NFL teams playing each other, and both MLB series could be wrapped up by the weekend (here's hoping!).

So, here's my advice: use this weekend to make up for last weekend and next weekend (you know, give a little to get a little... or in this case, a lot). Get stuff done around the house, run those errands, and/or take your best girl out to dinner and a show.

DO WHATEVER YOU NEED TO DO, because you don't want to miss out on a potential EPIC weekend next week that will include college and pro football, pro basketball, AND the World Series.

Merry Christmas to me.
