Weekend viewing guide

What I’M watching this weekend

Saturday December 6, 2008

Noon, Eastern Time, college football, Army Vs. Navy on CBS.
This is America’s game with a lot of history and tradition.

4 P.M. is the Southeastern Conference (SEC) Championship game between #1 Alabama and #4 Florida on CBS. If Alabama wins the game they are a lock for the National Championship game in January, but if Florida wins they may get in.

At 8 P.M. on ABC is the Big 12 Conference Championship game between
#2 Oklahoma and #20 Missouri. If Oklahoma wins they are a lock for the National Championship game in January, but if Missouri wins Florida or Texas or even USC may get in. Should be a fun Saturday watching all of this? We will know the two teams in the National Championship Game on Sunday after the NFL on FOX at around 7:30 P.M.

Also on Saturday at 4:30 P.M. on NBC is the re-airing of the Paralympic Games Special that premiered a few weeks ago. I strongly urge everyone to watch this special, if you have to tape it or record it in some way (DVR) I strongly in courage you to view it because like I said before it is the best thing I see on TV this year. It was very well done and is getting a lot of positive reviews from media people not in the disability world.

Sunday is week 14 of the NFL season with the Patriots at Seattle; kickoff is at 4:05 on CBS.

Also on Sunday at 3:30 P.M. on ESPN is the 4th round out of 10 of the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. This is the best of the best in Pro Rodeo riding and roping for over 5 Million dollars in prize money. According to ESPN the Magazine, only tennis’ U.S. Open, the Daytona 500, the Indianapolis 500, and golf’s Players Championship offer more money than the NFR.

Enjoy your sports weekend because it gets slow after this.
