Love sports? This time of year is a feast for sports fans. Baseball season is swinging for the fences; trying to figure out who is going to win each division and make it to the playoff is consuming hours of conversation both in person and on the radio. Baseball fans who enjoy the non-professional levels of baseball can watch the elimination games leading up to the Little League World Series and the Series itself. There are plenty of fantasy baseball leagues to entertain baseball sports fans. Some people treat fantasy leagues as if they were affiliate programs — and ask all of their friends to join their league.

Football season is also on the way — both college and professional. The preseason polls for the college teams — the Associated Press Poll, Sports Illustrated and ESPN — have all been released and the discussion and debates about team performances are actively brewing. The professional football season has finally just started — well at least the preseason has started. For the football-starved among us, preseason football is a welcome distraction from the dog days of summer. Fantasy football leagues for both college and professional football are available to give the fan another opportunity to participate in the sport. Even people who like the other version of football — i.e. soccer — can watch some matches in both the U.S. and Europe.

For people who don’t like team sports, there are golf tournaments. The Ryder Cup, which is a golf competition between teams from the United States and Europe, is selecting players and gearing up for early October. Tennis is working its way to the final major of the year, the U.S. Open, with the indoor season. Racing fans have NASCAR and the Sprint Cup to enjoy.

Although it is really hot outside, there is plenty of sport action to watch both indoors and out — with fantasy leagues for added entertainment.

As the fall sports seasons approached, many XBox 360 games users were eagerly awaiting the release of the sports game, Madden 2011, featuring Super Bowl winning quarterback Drew Brees as its 2011 coverman.

Another sports lovers delight was the recent release of NCAA football 11, featuring former Florida Quarterback, Tim Tebow, as the 360 games coverman.

If the 360 games of football aren’t your choice, hundreds of thousands of 360 games users from across the world can be found nightly playing one of the 360 games most successful versions, Halo 3. Halo 3 is another of the 360 games that capitalizes on extraordinary graphics, transforming players into an alternate world of mystery, war and combat.

Other 360 games that are rated extremely high are Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Red Dead Redemption, Bio Shock 2 and Dragon Age: Origins.

As the fall football seasons approach, friends and families from across the country will be gathering for Fantasy-Football drafts, and weekends of watching football together. Man-caves from the east-coast to the west-coast will be filled with college football fanatics, and die-hard National Football League fans cheering on their favorite sports teams as autumn turns into winter.

With sports viewing, comes the inevitable need for home entertainment. Husbands from around the country will do countless household chores hoping to charm their spouse into agreeing to those ‘necessary’ home purchases. Whether it be a big-screen television or custom poker tables, taking out the trash during a blizzard or fixing that leaky faucet are only afterthoughts, if doing those chores ensures the purchase that will complete one’s home entertainment offerings.

Sports are the great unifier! They bring people together on cold winters days to root for their favorite team, despite inclement weather conditions. Sports make people sit outside for hours in sub-zero weather conditions, even though the game is being televised locally. Sports remind us that every season is a new season and keeping hope alive might really help your favorite team win the big game. Sports makes a husband fire up the grill in January or get up at 4 a.m. for work, so watching the big-game that night is a possibility.

Football in particular, is the sport that ushers in the fall season. When the kids go back to school, it can only mean that college and NFL sports are just around the corner. When the leaves turn yellow and red, it’s a sure sign that Peyton Manning and Drew Brees are leading their teams into battle.

Sports give friends a reason to stay in touch, because seeing your college roommates favorite team lose a heartbreaker of get drilled by Notre Dame is oh so worthy of a late-night phone call.
