I started this Saturday with 3 entertainment goals. My 1st was to follow the Indiana Fever vs New York Liberty WNBA game. That game ended a few minutes ago and even though my Fever lost by 2 points, the lead went back and forth all afternoon. After all, considering that the Liberty are currently reigning WNBA champs; coming so close to winning the game against them is actually pretty cool.
My 2nd goal is following the Texas Rangers vs Chicago White Sox game. It's almost time for the 1st pitch, and I'm tuned into the Texas Rangers Radio Network and am ready to cheer on my team. GO RANGERS!
My 3rd goal is to follow tonight's Svengoolie. The movie featured this week is one of my all-time favorites, from 1959, The Mummy. Yes, I'm looking forward to seeing it again.

My sports-day starts early this Thursday with the Rangers playing the Yankees, weather permitting. First pitch is scheduled for 11:30 a.m., and the Rangers Gameday Show has just started. I'm tuned into that now. And I do have an Indiana Fever Game to follow later. Opening tip for the basketball game is scheduled for 6:30 p.m., so I'll tune into the radio coverage for that at ~6:00.
Most of my morning has been spent paying bills, or shuffling funds into different accounts to cover expected withdrawals. That being done, I hope to spend the rest of this day with more pleasant pursuits.
Plans are to catch the 1st inning or 2 of the Rangers / Yankees MLB game before switching over to Pacers / Knicks NBA game, weather permitting. They say it's been spitting rain in New York for the past few hours, but they're hoping to get the game in anyway.

Late afternoon Tuesday and I should be satisfied with the day's accomplishments. Next week I'm to lead a Rosary service at a Funeral Home at the request of the family of the deceased. This morning I assembled the material I'll use.
Tonight's entertainment will either be following the radio broadcast of an Indiana Fever Game or a Texas Rangers Game. Both will be satisfying. Both are playing at the same time. I'll try the Fever game first, but there's any trouble bringing it in, I'll gladly switch over the the Rangers / Yankees Game.

I won this CC (Correspondence Chess) game a few minutes ago playing Black. On the 40th move of this game, which began with our first full move on Feb. 24, my e1 Rook delivered the mating move. The White King's only two flight squares were covered by my b8 Bishop and my d1 Knight. The position of pieces at game's end and our full move record are shown below:

Happy to see the Indiana Fever with a healthy lead over the Chicago Sky at halftime of this afternoon's WNBA Game.

Following IU Softball this afternoon, and I'm happy to see the Lady Hoosiers jump out to an early 2-0 lead against the Oklahoma St. Cowgirls. As I often do, I'm listening to the live radio broadcast while following the live broadcast game stats.
