The sun rose just over an hour ago, and already I can tell that this is going to be a long day.

Man it sucks with no sports on the tube right now. Yeah, I know there is baseball and everything. But c’mon, most average sports fans do not care about baseball until the postseason. And I care way too much about football on a year-round basis to try and follow the long MLB regular season.

The NBA Finals do not return until Thursday, so that gives us a few more days of this nonsense. Oh, and there is hockey going on but really, does anybody here watch hockey? Just curious.

Here are today’s great reads:

• Donovan McNabb vs. Kevin Kolb makes the list of the five most intriguing quarterback battles set to occur this summer. Really?! [Shutdown Corner]
• Never one to complain about good players flying under the radar, I agree that Ronnie Brown is getting no love right now. [Pancake Blocks]
• Watch out Daunte Culpepper: Matt Stafford may be starting for Detroit sooner rather than later. [ProFootballTalk]
• Some guys do not like to do all the work for cheat sheets, so this set of free sheets is for you! [FF ToolBox]
