OK try to follow along. The Yankees have won their first round playoff series vs. the Minnesota Twinkies. They'll play the winner of the Tampa Rays and Texas Rangers who play again today in Arlington Texas with the Rangers looking to close out the Rays and set up a date with the Yanks in the ALCS.
Speaking of Rangers, the Broadway Blueshirts smacked the Buffalo Sabres around last night 6-3. The Islanders will host the Rangers in a rare Monday afternoon game at 1 pm. The Devils lost Brian Rolston and Anton Volchenkov to injuries in Washington last night in losing 7-2. The Devils are about to find out how devastating Kovalchuk's contract can be to a team right at the top of the salary cap. The Devils simply can't just bring guys up to replace injured players without first checking to see if that would put them over the cap. There is every chance the Devils play a roster spot short Monday as they too have an afternoon game vs the Penguins, this afternoon tilt starting at 4 pm.
The Giants play the suddenly hot Houston Texans in a 1 pm kickoff in Houston. This IS a big game for the 2-2 Giants. Lose and they're 2-3 and suddenly chasing weeks to try to get back to .500 and then above. Win and they'll stay up near the top of the NFC East. If there is any advantage for the G Men today it's that Houston has the worst ranked pass defense in the NFL. On Monday night over at the Meadowlands former Jet Brett Favre will lead the struggling Minnesota Vikings against the J-E-T-S. No word on if Favre has been sexting pictures of, ahem, 'Little Brett' to Jets team trainers and doctors and or staff as he is accused of doing (and which he won't deny) while he played in New York. You can read accusations here and here and see the alleged pics here (NSFW)..
Now you're set on sports for the next couple days.
