Start your week off right with the breakfast food-themed edition of Monday Minute. 

NBA (National Basketball Association) Playoffs

Let's start with the NBA Finals. The Miami Heat won against the Denver Nuggets last night to tie the series 1-1. The two teams will play again on Wednesday night. Fun fact I saw during the broadcast: this NBA Finals is broadcast in over 244 countries and in 60 different languages.

French Open (TENNIS)

Tennis’ Coco Goff is the only US woman left in the field at the French Open. But we're not talking about Coco because everyone's talking about bagels. Two-time French Open winner Iga Świątek beat one of her opponents with a double bagel, which is a score of 6-0, 6-0. That is what they call bagels in tennis, a 6-0 score. In a post-game interview, she was asked about the Twitter account called Iga's Bakery. She didn't like it because she thought it was disrespectful to her opponents. After all, you never know how people got there and what happened to them that day when she was able to beat them 6-0.

College football bowl game season

Lastly, let's wrap it up with another breakfast theme, the Pop-Tart Bowl. Well, we know college football bowl game season has a lot of exciting bowl game names, and the Cheez-It bowl is no longer. It has been replaced by the Pop-Tart Bowl. That's right; your childhood breakfast returns to life to watch football and eat. It will happen in December in Orlando, Florida.
