    As a Spurs fan, I figure Harry Kane will be in a Wile E. Coyote full body cast by the end of the first half of the first game.

    Ismalia Sarr's hamstring is of the highest priority as a Watford supporter. If he goes out, the Championship awaits ...

    You can't hold any of the qualifying for the LLWS, so it's understandable. Same reason why the USGA is canceling some of its events a couple of months out. If you can't hold qualifiers, you can't hold a championship.

    "The University of Alabama system intends to return to on-campus instruction for the upcoming fall semester barring any more extenuating circumstances or health risks, said Finis E. St. John IV, chancellor of The University of Alabama System.

    “We are expecting to have a fall semester at all of our universities,” St. John told AL.com in an interview on Wednesday. “We are expecting it to be on the regular schedule."

    Depending on what the E stands for, that might be the most pretentious-sounding name ever.

    The same logic, on a massive scale, was why they postponed the Olympics. There were so many national qualifying events in so many sports that had yet to be contested that it was impossible to figure out who should be there. That's not even factoring in the travel issues from 197 countries.

    Simone Biles was a lock, even if she broke her leg in qualifying. I wouldn't bet against her winning even with a cast on one leg.

    The iRacing events have absolutely primed the pump, and it’s not like they need the fans in the stands to run the race.

    Not just Little League qualifying, but not even regular-season games to determine all-stars.
