Who needs tickets?

It’s Monday, depression is setting in, and you’re starting to regret some decisions you made this weekend.  Maybe you shouldn’t have punched that puppy while you were drunk, but who really knows?  At this point, you’re debating going to the liquor store on your lunch break and buying some bailey’s to add to your sixth cup of coffee for the day, but will that solve anything?  Will it make the pain go away?  Maybe, maybe not.  But don’t fear, there are sports events coming up that you just can’t miss.  Just keep plugging away, we promise that it’s worth it.

Indianapolis Colts versus Jacksonville Jaguars (October 21, 8:30p.m.)

At this point, you have to root for the Colts because we all really want to see them and the Pats play each other while they are both still undefeated.  This is the first solid Monday night matchup in a while, we just hope that Ron Jaworski and Tony Kornheiser stop cracking jokes and laughing enough to notice.  I miss Dennis Miller.

Boston College versus Virginia Tech (October 24, 7:30p.m.)

Let’s take a step back and look at the state of Boston sports right now.  The Red Sox are in the World Series, the Patriots are 7-0 and look above and beyond every team in the NFL, the Bruins are off to a surprising 5-2 start in the NHL, the Revolution are the defending champs of the MLS and are about to start their playoff run, the Celtics have 3 potential hall of famers playing for them in a water-downed Eastern Conference of the NBA, and Boston College will most likely go to the BCS title game if they win on Thursday.  If you are not rooting for Virignia Tech in this game, you are a bad person.

Ohio State versus Penn State (October 27, 8:00p.m.)

Please don’t let a Big 10 team get into the national title game. Please please please. Joe Pa, if there is a God, you will win this game.  Then you will gracefully step down from coaching because you are 110 years old and have Alsheimer’s.

The World Series (begins October 23, 8p.m.)

Red Sox.  Rockies.  Tim McCarver.  Dane Cook. Rocktober.  Transformers.  Josh Beckett’s ex-girlfriend. This is what it is all about (mostly Beckett’s ex).  The Colorado Rockies have NEVER won a World Series and the Boston Red Sox fans still whine like they never have either.  I love this World Series matchup and I hate it.  Ok, I dont hate the matchup, I just really hate Tim McCarver and Dane Cook and the city of Boston.  Prediction: Rockies in 6.  They open up with a statement victory against the untouchable Beckett.  The Rockies then take it one step further and have Danielle Peck get married to Matt Holliday during the seventh inning stretch. What a lucky guy….
