Arm Wrestling World Championships
1 p.m., ESPN
Only marginally more “sport” than the spelling bee.
MLB: Braves at Cubs
2 p.m., TBS
The team actually kept its promise not to play all night games after putting lights in Wrigley Field almost 20 years ago. What a concept.
PGA: The Memorial Tournament
3 p.m., The Golf Channel
So does this mean we all get Monday off?
Yachting: Louis Vuitton Cup
6:30 p.m., Versus
Determines the challenger in the America’s Cup final. So it’s like watching the NFC playoffs. If you’re a retired, millionaire attorney without any family history of narcolepsy.
MLB: Yankees at Red Sox
7 p.m., NESN

WWF: Friday Night SmackDown
8 p.m., WPXT

NASCAR: Craftsman Truck Series 200
8:30 p.m., Speed
In golfing terms, these are the guys who didn’t make it through Q-school.
