The Greatest Weekend in Sports?
Friends, I pose you this question: is the coming weekend the greatest in sports?
We have:
The NFL Draft
The MLB season heating up a bit
The early playoffs of both the NHL and NBA
A NASCAR race at Talladega, one of its best and most exciting tracks
and probably some other stuff
so do you agree? or can you think of a better weekend for a sports fan?

I'd take one great football game over all of that combined, so i'll say NO, it's not the greatest, although it's pretty damn good. So much stuff going on, i'll definitely be doing a lot of watching.

Fall has better weekends. NFL and NCAA football games plus September-October baseball. That, to me, is a perfect weekend.

No and I can't think of one better at the moment but I am sure someone will. Very good weekend though. I am ready for NBA playoffs, Orioles, and Some Capitals. Does NASCAR count??

Since I only really follow the NFL and the Chiefs never seem to make the playoffs let alone the SB draft weekend is a pretty big deal around my house.

Honestly, unless the eagles are playing in the playoffs or better yet, the super bowl, there's no better weekend in sports than the draft for me.

Meh...after the NFL draft and NBA Finals are over, the sports world is just an epic fail to me until football season gets ready to start again.
I ******* hate baseball. Every time I see a baseball highlight it looks exactly like every other baseball highlight I've ever seen.

You can say that about every sport.

Super Bowl Sunday is the greatest Weekend in Sports

Super Bowl Sunday is the most exciting day in sports but this upcoming weekend is the greatest weekend in sports. You got 2 days of the draft, NBA and NHL playoffs, and the most exciting Nascar race of the year other than the Daytona 500. And Yanks-Sox to top things off.

No. Final Four weekend(usually), Super Bowl weekend(usually) both surpass it.
