This might just be me, but recently I have been overwhelmed by SportsCenter and the amount of professional sports taking place at one time. The MLB, NHL, NFL and WNBA (I will get the cold shoulder for saying that one) are all competing for the attention of sports fans across the globe.
These last few weeks my Twitter feed, radio and TV have been consumed by the sports world. Try as I might, I just cannot see it all. I rely on tweets and SportsCenter to keep me up to date. Sometimes even that is not enough. So, let’s have a little recap.
We are entering the sixth week in the NFL. Most teams are starting to get into the swing of things, yet we still have the Jacksonville Jaguars who cannot get anything to go their way. There is still a battle at the top of the standings with three undefeated teams: the Denver Broncos, New Orleans Saints and Kansas City Chiefs.
MLB post-season play is wrapping up the league division series this week. With plenty of drama for every team involved, I am happy to see most of the better teams, like the Cardinals (I cannot believe I am admitting that), ended up on top. It would not be October baseball if it were not for nail-biting endings to close games.
For all the hockey fans out there, do not worry, I have not forgotten you. The NHL is back on the ice this week with the beginning of regular season play. According to NHL.com, the overall favorite to contend for the Stanley Cup in 2014 is the Boston Bruins. I guess we will just have to sit back and wait to see about that one.
Last and definitely least, the WNBA is wrapping up their season this week. Yes, that is right: The WNBA Finals were last night, people. I apologize to those of you who are die-hard fans, but really find another sport. Please.
Basically what I am saying is there might be too many sports going on at one time, but you can find a way to stay in the know about them all. Trust me, you do not want to miss any of the action that will be occurring in the upcoming weeks and months.
