Fox lost its ass on the World Cup. That doesn't mean it wasn't a lot of fun, though. In the end France won the thing, and - still - nobody can find Croatia on a map. Meanwhile, here in America, we'd rather watch exhibition basketball than Major League Baseball.

While Trae Young continues to be horrible, Marvin Bagley and Luka Doncic watch, Jaren Jackson, Kevin Knox, and Wendell Carter are looking like the real deal,

We don't have any idea who'll win the British Open, but we like the odds for Tiger finishing in the Top 20. Speaking of Britain, how 'bout Novak Djokovic?!?

So Rondo's going to L.A. with Lebron? That ought to be fun. Trae Young's line against the Blazers? Zero points; three assists; three turnovers. Trust us. There's more of that in his future. Has Brickey turned on Marvin Bagley? Who's on the short list for NBA Rookie of the Year? And, oh, yeah, the World Cup is winding to a close. We got England!

Phoenix and Sacramento got it right. Atlanta and Dallas? Not so much. More than anything, though, Charlotte lost this draft. Twice.

If the U.S. was playing, would you be more interested in the World Cup? And why is Wendell Carter still fussing?

NBA General Managers would do well to check out this week's edition of From the Cheap Seats. We've got it all figured out. First things first. Trae Young is going to get somebody fired. Any team that selects Luka Doncic over Marvin Bagley III deserves to have their franchise relocated.

The World Cup is happening. In the battle for title "Best Player in the World", Ronaldo has moved out in front of Messi. There's plenty of time for that to change, though.

Golf? Plenty this week. Brooks Koepka is now a lock for the Hall of Fame. Zack Johnson, and the rest of the players that cried all weekend... Shut up.

Starting about now, there's six weeks of sports nothingness. The guys took this opportunity to talk a little soccer. Wanna know why soccer still hasn't taken off? Ask baseball.

Once again, the question arises... "Lebron or Michael?". And given Lebron's meltdown, is Kobe back in the conversation?

As bad as J.R. Smith's play was, Lebron's reaction was worse. Did Alex Ovechkin make you cry? And what's the world record for tacos eaten in two minutes?

It's a good thing betting is not legal outside of Vegas yet. Millions of Americans would be homeless after betting against Lebron. Speaking of vegas, the golden knights (see what we did there?) may really do this thing. And, oh yeah, Marvin Bagley III is still awesome, and Trae Young sucks.

Down -2, can Ovechkin and the Caps come back? How bad is it going to be if Vegas wins the Stanley Cup? And why is it that no matter what we do, everything always comes back to Jordan vs. Lebron? And Trae Young is actually 4 feet tall.

This may not be the end of the road for the Cavs, but you can see it from here. Can Boston really beat Cleveland? But does it really matter? After all, Golden State is back to looking unbeatable.

Cleveland sucks. The Canes kicked Ron Francis out of the building. Lebron is still the best player on the planet.
