Normally this is where I'd chastize you for thinking anything was on TV today, what with the end of college football's regular season clearing Saturdays up for everyone. But actually, if you go out to get shopping done, you're just going to run into a mob.
So uh...party? Clubbing? Beer with friends? It's that kind of Saturday. For those of you who don't believe me, check the sadness behind the jump.
Shiner
Cleveland Cavaliers @ Houston Rockets -- Fox Sports Houston, 7:30 PM -- The Rockets look to get back on track against the empty shell of a team that used to be a championship contender.
College Football -- Army Black Knights vs. Navy Midshipmen -- NBC, 1:30 PM -- A good chance to scout ahead for SMU's bowl opponent. Or to feel patriotic, whichever you're more inclined to feel.
West Ham United vs. Manchester City -- ESPN2, 9 AM -- They should cancel this game, fly West Ham over to Japan, and let them face off with the Nippon Ham Fighters in a dual-sport match for ham supremacy.
Budweiser
College Basketball -- Wisconsin Badgers @ Marquette Golden Eagles -- ESPN2, 1:30 PM -- I mean, I guess you could watch Duke kick St. Louis' ass. I actually prefer a game where both teams are good.
College Basketball -- Washington Huskies @ Texas A&M Aggies -- ESPN2, 3:30 PM -- Lets see if A&M can handle a team from the West Coast that isn't BYU.
College Basketball -- Indiana Hoosiers @ Kentucky Wildcats -- ESPN, 4:15 PM -- The over/under on diaper dandies in this game is 6.5. Players Vitale says are one, not times he actually uses the phrase.
Mike's Hard Lemonade
Toronto Raptors @ Detroit Pistons -- NBA TV, 6:30 PM -- Andrea Bargnani and Charlie Villanueva will have a fierce battle over who wants this rebound less.
