Sunday will be a groundbreaking day in the annals of North American sports As far as I've been able to determine, Sunday will be the first day on which all four/five major professional sports leagues have played regular season or playoff games on the same day. So far as I can tell, there have never been games that count in MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL and MLS all on the same day. Thanks to Bud Selig, who seems to think that baseball has somehow become a winter sport, the World Series is being pushed further and further into the football season. The NBA season kicked off this week and the NHL has been playing games for the last couple of weeks. The MLS playoffs start this weekend, but you knew that.
Add in college football and the CFL for our friends up north, which has a game this Sunday and you have a full complement of sports. Oh, and just to be inclusive, there is a PGA tournament for those pros still trying to get their tour card and the WTA is holding its year-end championship in Doha, Qatar.
If you are a sports fan, outside the Olympics, you will never have more variety than this weekend
