There is A LOT of stuff to watch this weekend. The NBA Finals, the Stanley Cup (I like the Penguins), NCAA baseball super regionals, NASCAR at Pocono, tons of baseball, the Belmont and last but not least - the French Open finals.So forget the summer sun, that's for losers. Real fans crack open a beer and stay indoors and compare the whiteness of their skin with others. At least, that's what I'll be doing.
