Okay folks, here's another season of hockey for the National Hockey League and American Hockey League. And of course, hockey fans will also chime in on the IIHF World Junior Championships in the Czech Republic and the IIHF World Championships in Switzerland.

Hello basketball fans, With the Toronto Raptors defending their NBA title, 29 other teams will attack to take the Larry O'Brien trophy from them. Will the Raps defend or will there be a new NBA champion? Also, all hoops fans can chime in on the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup tournament as the United States will go for a three-peat in China from August 31 to September 15 and their sixth consecutive major tournament overall (three Olympic Gold Medals to go along with their two FIBA...

Another season of college football awaits as the 2020 College Football Playoff National Championship is in the Big Easy.

New season starts in two days. Few things: • Barrett looks really good. He did in Summer League too. He's not really that athletic but he's going to be very good, especially when his 3 improves. Fills up the box and his defense has been solid. • Knox has clearly gotten stronger. In pre-season he's been much better at finishing through contact. • I don't like all these vets they signed. Less is more in basketball. I think it could be an issue cause Fizdale is going to want to win...

Hello fellow hockey fans. It's another season of hockey in both the National and American Hockey Leagues. Of course, we will also talk shop on the 2019 IIHF World Championship tournament in Slovakia. From the puck drops in both the NHL and AHL season openers to the teams raising both the Stanley and Calder Cups, you can talk hockey here.

Cup has been won. Time to think about next season. Probably the most exciting Islanders off season in decades starts now.

There's a topic for the World Cup. I decided to start a topic for clubs. You can post about clubs from any country in any competition (domestic or a champions league), players changing clubs, and when matchups are made for a tournament. Every club in the 2017-2018 UEFA Champions League and its qualifying rounds is known except for the Polish champion, who will be decided on Sunday. The Group Stage will have 32 clubs. 10 of them come from qualifying rounds, and the 22 known clubs are: ...
