Sports is no fun if you don’t know what’s going on. Here’s what’s going on:
In today’s segment, I covered:
- The World Series between the Kansas City Royals and San Francisco Giants continues with game six in Kansas City at 8 p.m. ET on Fox.
- The NBA season begins tonight with three games, two of which are on national television. The Orlando Magic play the New Orleans Pelicans at 8 p.m. ET. The Dallas Mavericks take on the defending champion San Antonio Spurs at 8 p.m. on TNT. The Houston Rockets play the Los Angeles Lakers at 10:30 p.m. ET, also on TNT.
- There’s a dozen games in the NHL tonight. We’ll highlight just a couple of them. The Minnesota Wild play the Boston Bruins on NBC Sports Network at 7. The Ottawa Senators look for their first win since the shootings in their city when they play the Columbus Blue Jackets, also at 7. The Anaheim Ducks play the Chicago Blackhawks at 8:30 p.m. ET.
- Finally, in non-game-based sports news, the first ever official College Football Playoff committee’s top 25 rankings will come out today.
