Running the Spread: Next Stop, Football

As some have noticed, it’s a little hard to find something to talk about in sports right now.  We have just hit a slow time.  This past weekend, we saw a Tiger make a valiant effort to win the US Open.  This week, the Celtics finished off LA with a whap, and now the NBA is done.  There is Arena Football, which is fun to watch, but nobody really talks about it.  Major League Baseball is just getting started, and it has a long way to go to be interesting (not that I really care anyway),  And, a couple weeks ago, Lord Stanley found a new home.

There is racing, and, well, it may have more fans than any.  NASCAR, Indy, IMCA, World of Outlaws, and other assorted series around this country are really getting revved up.  I love dirt racing, particularly late model racing.  My favorite site for reading about late model racing is Latemodelracer.  And, while I think that racing is a legitimate sport and worth keeping up with, it rarely makes the headlines of a sports page.  Unless there is a fight.

Now, with all of that behind us, it is officially late June.  What does that mean?  Next stop, football.  All of the preseason magazines are out, giving us almost two months to digest what the experts think will happen this fall.  Gosh, what would we do the rest of the summer?  Of course, we here at Collegefootballtopten.com talk college football.  Therefore, next stop for us is college football.  I’ll leave the pros for someone else.

As for me, I will glancing Inthebleachers, listening to the Sunday Morning QB, searching for the Wizard of Odds, and writing about our Fanblogs.
