Unless you get your groove on for lawn tennis, this is the worst time of the year to be a sports fan. We usually mark the start of this sports Bermuda Triangle with the end of the NBA/NHL finals, but this year we extended through the College World Series and felt we were rewarded for it. The college kids put on a good show, although sometimes it looks, well, very white out there. Diversity does not seem to have reached D-I baseball.
But when you're looking to Omaha for salvation, you can be sure that you're in trouble. Now that they've shut the lights off there, it's just you, us, and the MLB All-Star Game from here till football.
Celebrity deaths help pass the time, but the Reaper could come for the rest of the Jacksons, the rest of Charlie's Angels, and the whole Osmond family for a little value added and still not get us to the end of August with our sun-baked wits intact. God have mercy on us all.
