Grassmarket 2,715 Posted April 1, 2022 #1081 Share Posted April 1, 2022 There are two big holes in the global sporting calendar every year. Late March, when the Winter season ends, to mid-May, when the mainstream summer sports again. Then late September to mid-November, when the opposite happens. So what I’ve got now is: Cycling season at full steam North & South hemisphere Rugby League season ditto. NCAA softball & volleyball Curling World Champs Don’t watch soccer anymore - used to like it up till the early 90s, but now it’s just a global money laundering front. Currently watching UK Open indoor lawn bowls - it’s like Curling for overweight middle-aged people! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Bun 337 Posted April 1, 2022 #1082 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Will be watching the WDF World Championships which starts tomorrow on Eurosport and ends on 10th. Hopefully they'll be a better competition to the PDC than the BDO were in it's later years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grassmarket 2,715 Posted April 15, 2022 #1084 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Always a busy weekend for fans of US Women’s College Sports with the NCAA Gymnastics Finals going up against the NCAA 10-pin Bowling Finals. Sadly, no chance of the Golden Double. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
