↵American League Championship Series, Game 6: New York Yankees at Texas Rangers, TBS, 8: The good guys, up 3-2, try to put away the Yankees tonight. Phil Hughes will take the mound for New York, as Colby Lewis attempts to put the Rangers into the first pennant in the franchise's 49-year history. The Yankees have been to the World Series 49 times (not looking that up), so it's pretty easy to see why America's rooting for the Lone Star boys here. Plus, Nolan Ryan laughing at the Yankees getting crushed by a touchdown, anyone?

↵South Florida Bulls at Cincinnati Bearcats, ESPN2, 8: Do you know how you can tell if today is a weekday and not a weekend day? Simply look to see if Big East football is being played. If yes, you have to go to work today. Cincy has sort of kinda righted the ship after losing to Fresno State, playing three decent games in a row. As for South Florida, how 'bout them Dolphins!
↵Montreal Alouettes at Hamilton Tiger-cats, NFL Network, 7: Yes, friends, you get to choose between two concurrent football games that feature mascots with needless feline suffixes. Montreal might be the best team in the CFL, meaning they could absolutely roll the Big East.
