The dumbest stories in sports (Part 2)

The NFL schedule for next season was released tonight, and apparently that is cause for much rejoicing.

So that got Mrs. Last Honest and I to thinking ... what sporting events would happen between tonight (April 23) and the first game of the NFL season Sept. 4? Here's what we came up with:

  • The remainder of the NBA and NHL playoffs.
  • More than four months of the Major League Baseball season, including the All-Star Game.
  • The College World Series.
  • The Little League World Series.
  • The Baseball Hall of Fame induction.
  • The NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL drafts.
  • The World Cup.
  • The end of this Premier League season ... and the start of the next one.
  • The French Open, Wimbledon and most of the U.S. Open.
  • The British Open, the U.S. Open and the PGA Championship.
  • The Indianapolis 500, Coca-Cola 600 and Grand Prix of Monaco ... all on the same day.
  • The WNBA regular season. 
  • The Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont.
  • The opening of the Canadian Football League season (by the way, they announced their schedule in February).
  • The Tour de France.
  • The Floyd Mayweather-Marcos Maidana fight.
But by all means, let's obsess over the NFL schedule.
