Must See Games of the Weekend

Boston Red Sox vs. New York Yankees (Friday, 7 PM) - Monster softball suggestion to start the weekend. Boston's more or less surrendered the AL East to the Yankees but it's still Sox/Yanks nonetheless. The only other option is going to bed early to be well rested for football on Saturday and Sunday.

Miami (FL) vs. Virginia Tech (Saturday, 3:30 PM ABC) - Is the "U" really back? Can the Hokies actually show up and stop someone on defense? Will Jacory Harris force his way into the Heisman conversation? You know it's a strange year when the ACC provides one of the best in-conference match ups we'll see all season.

Atlanta Falcons vs. New England Patriots (Sunday, 1 P.M) - Theoretically, the Pats should be 0-2 coming in to a tough game against the rejuvenated Falcons. As it stands, they're 1-1 and are trying to figure out the mystery of their missing MVP quarterback. Never underestimate the power of desperation to bring about a stellar performance. Against the Falcons, nothing less than a stellar performance will probably cost New England in the "loss" column.

New Orleans Saints vs. Buffalo Bills (Sunday, 4:05 P.M. FOX) - The Drew Brees air show comes to Buffalo to test a defense that has shown a tendancy to give up big plays. Through 2 games, the Bills have almost given away a game late in the 4th, and actually given away a game in the 4th with less than tight defense. It may not be super competitive for very long, but it's always fun to watch Brees and Co. throw the rock around for 60 minutes.
