Notably, yesterday was the first day EVER that the NFL, MLB, NBA, WNBA, MLS, and NHL all played on the same day. Not to mention the US Open and CFB (Miami played UAB). A sports smorgasboard. (Sporgasboard?)

The ratings will be interesting - I can see them being down for a variety of reasons, including lack of buildup and interest, due to "more important things."  Also, one colleague said he has given up on US pro sports because he does not appreciate "all the lecturing" on social justice matters (I think an easy out is to just avoid all pre-game coverage, but whatever . . . ).

All I know is we had the NFL game on one TV last night, and the Gyros on the other.

Speaking of the NFL, how can they possibly play the game at Santa Clara on Sunday?  The air quality right now is a "very unhealthy" 232, and it is projected to be over 200 on Sunday.  How bad will it look if NFL players are gasping for air and holding their chests from inhaling ash for 3+ hours?
