Monday Night Football – New York Giants  vs Philadelphia Eagles : This  game is  for first place in the  NFC East. Big Blue is 3-2 and has a surprising lead in the NFC East. With a couple of superstars injured in Dallas, Chip Kelly’s mad science experiment got off to a rough start in Philly, and Washington, well, just being Washington, the Giants have a chance to take firm control of the division in the coming weeks. If they can get past the Eagles on Monday night, their next three games are against the Romo-less Cowboys the 1-4 Saints and the 2-3 Tampa Bay. The Giants don’t play a team that currently has a winning record until the Pats come to town in Week 10. Not to mention, the new Star Wars  trailer drops during the game. Another great reason to watch.

Monday Night – ALCS Game 3- Kansas City Royals  vs Toronto Blue Jays: Facing an unfavorable 2-0 deficit against the Kansas City Royals in the American League Championship Series, the Toronto Blue Jays return home Monday.Toronto was just in a similar situation in the ALDS. Toronto will be home for the next three games, so  maybe their bats can wake up.The Royals present a tall task.Their 29-year playoff drought, quenched in 2014, is so last year. They’ve since rattled off an 11-6 postseason record and embodied resilience in a back-and-forth, five-game ALDS victory over the Houston Astros. This series is far from over and will be a wild finish.

Tuesday Night – NLCS Game 3- New York Mets  vs Chicago Cubs : While the Mets are riding high after their strong showing in Queens, they will have their work cut out for them as the series shifts to Wrigley Field.Already up two games, the Mets have the luxury of sending their ace to the hill in Game 3. Jacob deGrom will take the mound for the Mets against Kyle Hendricks of the Cubs.If Kyle Schwarber, Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo can get things on track, it can help them stay in a groove as the series wears on. For the Cubs to have any chance, those three players will need to carry the lineup. Steven Matz is scheduled to start Game 4 for the Mets after a tough outing against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLDS. The 24-year-old Matz is a rookie and could falter on the road in front of a hostile crowd. Expect no less than a  six game series.

Today Kaulder is the only one of his kind remaining, and has spent centuries hunting down rogue witches, all the while yearning for his long-lost loved ones. However, unbeknownst to Kaulder, the Queen Witch is resurrected and seeks revenge on her killer causing an epic battle that will determine the survival of the human race.

Saturday Night  College Football   #1 Ohio State vs Rutgers : The Buckeyes (7-0) will look roll surging Rutgers Scarlet Knights (3-3), who rallied from 25 points down with 18 minutes to go to beat Indiana 55-52 last Saturday. Will the Buckeyes continue to roll toward a second appearance in the College Football Playoff, or can the Scarlet Knights pull the upset? Probably not but hey stranger things can happen. Despite an incredible array of offensive firepower, the Buckeyes were horrendous in the red zone through the first five weeks of the season, converting just six touchdowns in 16 trips inside their opponent’s 20-yard line.
