Tonight at the downtown Y, they had some of the TV sets in the workout area and the TV in the men's locker room set to ESPN2.
And I guess it must be a really, really, really, really slow sports day because ESPN2 was airing (and I'm not making this up here) a dominoes tournament.
I had to look twice to see if my eyes were deceiving me.
Surely, I thought they're not showing people sitting around playing dominoes.
Yes, they were.
Surely there must have been a baseball game, soccer game, golf tournament or something go on somewhere that qualified as sports...but not dominoes! I mean, it's bad enough that ESPN and other networks are trying to tell us that poker is somehow a sporting event. But now, we've got dominoes on ESPN2.
Please, please time speed up and bring us the REAL sport that is football. I'll take pre-pre-pre-season drills and OTAs over dominoes....
Shoot, I'm almost rather watch soccer....
