Delaying Baseball Tonight so you can show Doc Rivers mumbling his way through a press conference is not cool. This wasn't even the deciding game of the finals!!!

I'm claiming early seats on the Warriors' bandwagon. After a shaky start, they've become one of the hottest teams in the NBA.

This scandal-plagued Tour ended in a redeeming fashion, with Alberto Contador of Spain holding off a furious charge by Cadel Evans of Australia, winning by a slim 23 seconds. Hopefully, before the next Grand Tour event the UCI will make the rules ironclad.

The SaberCats won their 3rd Arena Bowl in six years, 55-33, over the Columbus Destroyers

We nicked out near the end of the game to go see my sister and brand new baby Regan. Regan, as is the case with all newborns, is too cute and liked being held by her Aunt Kirsten. I shy away from holding newborns, I'm just not comfortable holding babies that small. As I told Ann, I want to see her crawl into a few chair legs before I hold her. Regan did grab my finger. We stuck around to help Bill and Ann load everything in their car, and headed home, just in time to see...

... my Giants lose to the Florida Marlins 8-5. We allowed 17 hits in this game. That's not good. Bonds didn't tie Aaron today.

People are still driving around downtown San Jose really, really fast.

In other sports news, the Niners have signed first-round pick Patrick Willis. The outside linebacker from Ole Miss signed just before midnight and reported to the opening of 49ers training camp. We've now signed all our draft picks and free agents. Things are looking good for the Red and Gold.

So, how are things in your sporting worlds? Or any baby news to share?

Today, I have a cornucopia of sports to watch.

Right now, I have the final stage of Le Tour de France.

At Noon, Arena Bowl XXI pits my San Jose Sabercats against the Columbus Destroyers. but...

At 1300 we have the Giants playing the Marlins, with Bonds one shy of tying Aaron and the Giants riding a four-game winning streak.

Want more?

At 1500 coverage of the San Jose Grand Prix begins. While I'm annoyed by the money losing event, Seeing cars do over 100mph legally down our city streets could be fun.

I have beer. Today is going to be good.
