A small effort reaps big rewards when it comes to being a small talk champion.
But raise your hand if you have a Halloween candy hangover,
(raises hands) The Last Night’s Game Team
PS – The Washington Nationals, “the most fun team to win the World Series,” will celebrate their first championship win in team history with a victory parade tomorrow. So if you’re in the D.C. area, keep the party going.
NEW YORK CITY MARATHON
It’s the fastest weekend in America with the New York City Marathon and the Circuit of the Americas race (F1- Formula One) in Austin. Over 50,000 runners will line up to run the streets of the city that never sleeps. Joining them is a long list of celebrity runners including former bachelorette Andi Dorfman, actress Uzo Aduba (“Orange Is The New Black”), Richard Blais (“Top Chef”) and a whole host of former professional athletes. Did you know the marathon raised over $40 million for charity last year? MAY YOUR FEET BE WITH YOU
OVERTIME
If you’re looking for the tailgate of the weekend, it's undoubtedly at the Florida – Georgia game. Dubbed “The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party” in the 1950s, the border clash game between the two schools takes place on neutral territory in Jacksonville, FL. But the game of the week, and the spot where you can catch ESPN College GameDay is in Memphis and is between SMU (#15 – Southern Methodist University) and Memphis (#24). WHO’S UP FOR MIMOSAS?
SIDELINE STAT
After years of domination by New Zealand, two new teams are vying for the Rugby World Cup trophy on Saturday. After a five-week tournament, England and South Africa will take the field in Japan for one last game. While both teams have won before, should South Africa win, they’ll be the first team to ever have lost a game in the tournament and battle their way back to the finals. Maybe we’ll even have a surprise appearance from Prince Harry, the patron of England national team. KONNICHIWA VICTORY
COACHES’ CORNER
It’s been a rough start to the season for the Golden State Warriors (NBA – National Basketball Association). As the icing on the cake of their crappy start, their star player Steph Curry broke is hand in a fall on the court. No word on when he might return to the game. BEST WISHES FOR A SPEEDY RECOVERY
WHAT TO WATCH
Because what’s a UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) fight without a four letter word or two? The most anticipated fight of 2019 is taking place on Saturday at Madison Square Garden, where Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will award the first ever “BMF" championship belt (Baddest Motherf—-r) to the winner of Nate Diaz vs. Jorge Masvidal fight.
