JULY-- #12 Rank-- The worst sports month of the year. British Open, Wimbleton finals, baseball All-Star game.
AUGUST-- #11 Rank-- Little League World Series. PGA Championship, NFL preseason yawn, Pennant races in baseball still a month off.
SEPTEMBER-- #2 Rank-- Bears and NFL return. College and high school rolling along. Baseball pennant and wild card races. Toss in US Open tennis for good measure.
OCTOBER-- #1 Rank-- All levels of football in mid-stride. Opening days for Hawks and Bulls. World Series (usually, though, not for our teams).
NOVEMBER-- #7 Rank-- Porterhouse of the college football season and starts to NHL and NBA. Too many one-sided college basket ball games (let's see, Duke vs. Podunk U?) Also, NFL, of course.
DECEMBER-- #10 Rank-- Meaningless college football season. Don't miss the Beef 'Brady Bowl. Half of NFL teams out of running. NHL and NBA trudge on. College hoops only starting to get interesting.
These again are the picks of the Chicago Tribune's sports staff.
Still Working on My Best to Worst Sports Months. That Is Not As Easy A It Seems, Either. --RoadDog
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
