Weekend Link-O-Rama

We had some exciting sports happenings on Saturday, mostly in the form of the World Cup, but since I know next to nothing about soccer (although I did watch what I could of Argentina/Ivory Coast, and it was really entertaining), I won't bore you with my thoughts. So here's some good stuff to read while you wait for the NBA Finals to resume!

The ArmchairGM has some grades up for day 1 and 2 of the World Cup, which is nice if you're just looking for a quick summary of what's been going on so far.

Barry Bonds the 10th most popular athlete? We tend to agree with MJD over at Deadspin about that... that poll is not so good.

Sportolysis has what you're looking for (if you're looking for World Cup or French Open stuff). With nice, easy to read updates, he's where I'm going to for some nice World Cup updates.

The Sports Pulse will also be a source of World Cup news, as he's also pretty excited for the game (as if you can't tell).

Sometimes, I wish Johan Santana or Francisco Liriano could start every game for the Twins. Maybe then they wouldn't be giving up 9 runs in a game. *bangs head on wall*

Maverick Moneyball has links for everything concerning the NBA Finals, including predictions, postgame commentary, etc.

Finally, the affiliate sponsor BabyBoomerTrips is always there for your needs!

Great sports stuff coming up in the next week! We have the NBA Finals continuing, the World Cup going on (with USA playing Monday morning), as well as the Super Regionals of NCAA Baseball heating up. Should be a great week in sports!
