IN THE SPIRIT OF THE SEASON
Today is the eve of All Hallows' Eve, so here's a list of sports people I would try to avoid Tuesday night when you begin the pursuit of mini Milky Way and Three Musketeers bars:
Honorable mention: Duke Blue Devils, Wake Forest Demon Deacons, Tampa Bay Devil Rays, et al. (although the D-Rays aren't exactly scary), John "The Count" Montefusco, Saratoga race track (a.k.a, the Graveyard of Favorites), The Green Monster, Dick "The Monster" Radatz and Barry Bonds.
THIS WEEK'S BEST BET
Professional Bull Riders 2006 World Finals, 6 p.m. Thursday-Saturday, 2 p.m. Sunday, Thomas & Mack Center
Another weekend for a lot of bull - and a lot of bull riders.
TICKETS: $30-$40

ALSO WORTH A LOOK
Floyd Mayweather vs. Carlos Baldomir. First bell 4:30 p.m. Saturday, Mandalay Bay Events Center
Baldomir hails from the same hometown as Argentine fistic legend Carlos Monzon. He had better fight like him, too, if he's to stand a chance against the Pretty Boy.
TICKETS: $75-$150
