    If you could watch any group of sporting events for 1 day....
    I was watching the Giants vs Cowboys game yesterday and was reminded once again that when those two teams play each other is when I feel you literally see the most effort given in pro sports. An absolute war twice a year, no matter how good or bad each team is that year.

    I was thinking if you could watch your ideal "playlist" of sporting events for 1 day, what games would you want to watch (and this can be with your ideal rosters, ideal coaching staff, and the venue of your choice).

    Here is my list:

    Giants vs Cowboys at Met-Life Stadium (3 hours in length)

    Alabama vs LSU at BCS title game (3 hours in length)

    Red Sox vs Yankees at Yankee Stadium (3 hours in length)

    49ers vs Seahawks at CenturyLink Field (3 hours in length)

    Saints vs Falcons at The Georgia Dome (3 hours in length)

    Ravens vs Steelers at M&T Bank Stadium (3 hours in length)

    Pats vs Jets at Gillette Stadium (I would only watch the first half of this stomping, but for that half I would love
    seeing the Jets get destroyed, so 1.5 hours)

    Duke vs UNC in college b-ball at Cameron Indoor Stadium (2 hours)

    South Africa vs New Zealand in Rugby Union at South Africa (2 hours)

    23.5 hours out of 24 hours used.

    That would be my ideal day of sports watching. What would yours be?

          Late May/Early June days are pretty good for me. French Open tennis by day and NBA playoffs by night.

                  what no soccer on the list? Games take less than 2 hours doesn't kill your entire day. for me personally nothing tops October baseball though. I love it when theirs 4 straight playoff games in the same day. Called out of work for it earlier in the year when it happened. It simply can't be beat especially when all the games are competitive.

                                  If it was like Chelsea vs Man U in Champions League final (where a winner MUST be decided) then it might have made my list.

                                  Soccer is my favorite sport, but I wouldn't want to use 2 hours of my "24 hour day of my ideal sporting events" to see a 1-1 draw.
