10. Oh, the humanity!!!

9. The Kentucky Derby is this Saturday. I’ve heard of May-September romances, but this is a bit much. Plus, we won’t get the obligatory Danneilynn Birkhead photo:

8. NBA and Stanley Cup Playoffs — In September. What’s next, The Masters in November? Oh, wait. Will the Azaleas still be in bloom? Will Bryson DeChambeau be restricted to a two-iron?

7. So, with no fans and announcers apologizing for language overheard during games, the TV gods give us simulated crowd noise. What’s next? Canned laughter on a sitcom?

6. With all the arenas and stadiums empty, shouldn’t taxpayers get a tax break on their stadium tax?

5. If Serena Williams doesn’t win the US Open, with so many top players skipping the event, she should retire.
