And thus the annual great sports drought begins once again....
No decent sports to watch until NFL preseason begins.

Agreed. No decent sports to watch until NFL preseason begins. *sigh* Poor the Pistons. All I am hoping for now is that the NHL gets its act together, signs the new CBA, and then the sparks start flying. No actual games, but the draft, free agency, whoo hoo!!  Good times, baby! Good times...

Since when could basketball be described as a "decent" sport?

They really should move this to July. They are missing a fabulous marketing opportunity.

Yay, basketball is done. About time.
The great sports drought is between the Super Bowl and March Madness. Nothing but meaningless basketball and meaningless hockey.

I felt it an appropriate time for the beard and moustache championships.

I like women's softball, especially those dugout shots of the gals applying eyeblack to each other.

Forgive me for wanting to commisserate with folks who might feel the same this time of the year. I didn't go out of my way to rip other sports in the initial post. I just mentioned that the ones that interest me are all offseason now. Please unbunch your panties and read other threads if you don't like this one. |

We have a weekend devoted to racing: Road Race at Sonoma, 2 races at The Milwaukee Mile. What more can a sports fan ask for?

Yeah, I agree. But then again, auto racing and baseball suck too, just less than basketball. But hey, this is why video games are made. NCAA 06 comes out in a little over 2 weeks so football will be in house very soon. |

The actual drought is between the SuperBowl and Opening Day.
Basketball sucks.

I could agree with an argument that between the end of the NCAA basketball tournament and the beginning of the NFL season is the real drought. NBA basketball is only watched as a desperate measure. I didn't watch a single regular season NBA game. |
