We are in what's called the "Dog Days of Summer". Baseball is starting its second half of the season, but other than that there is not much going on as far as broadcast television.

This weekend is no exception, but I don't want you going blindly into the weekend without giving you the heads up on these events:

Friday, July 13
ET/PT
7p/4p - Los Angeles Angeles at New York Yankees (MLB Network)
10p/7p - Boxing (Light Heavyweight): Glen Johnson (43 years old, 51-16-2) vs Andrzej Fonfara (24 years old, 20-2) (ESPN 2)

Saturday, July 14
4p/1p - New York Mets at Atlanta Braves (Dickey vs. Hanson) (Local TV)
9p/6p - Texas Rangers at Seattle Mariners (Darvish vs. Hernandez) (Local TV)
10p/7p - Strikeforce: Rockhold vs Kennedy (Showtime)
11p/8p - Boxing (Light Welterweight): Amir Khan vs Danny Garcia (HBO)

Sunday, July 15
10a/1p - Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees (Weaver vs Nova) (TBS)
3p/12p - PGA Tour: John Deere Classic Final Round (CBS)

PICK OF THE WEEKEND: STRIKEFORCE

If you have Showtime or are going to be around a bar that broadcasts MMA fights, I highly recommend you check out Saturday nights Strikeforce card.

The fight card features Luke Rockhold (9-1) vs Tim Kennedy (14-3) and Nate Marquardt (34-10-2) vs Tyron Woodley (10-0).

As far as Strikeforce fights go I would consider this to be a stacked card. You can view the entire card here: http://www.strikeforce.com/event/SF2...ld-Tim-Kennedy

I hope everyone has a great weekend. And hey, if you are playing NCAA 13 on the PS3 this weekend feel free to hit me up for a game sometime. My PSN ID is SOBAY310.
