Default Greatest sports weekend ever?

I can't remember a weekend with so much going on in the sports world.

World cup
US open
NBA finals
Stanley cup finals (maybe)
Mlb

What else?

Perfect! I care little about the CFL. I still care about it far more than either of those. They're to sports what Coors light and Budweiser (....well, and almost any macrobrew lager really) are to beer. All marketing, crap product.

2006 had SCF (Oilers, however), WC, NBA Finals, US Open golf, all on same weekend in June.

SCF was done by the time the WC started in 2010.

Not a sporting event, but throw Father's Day into the mix and it's a busy weekend.

Weekend after May 25, 1989 was the best.

June 17, 1994 was pretty busy on the sports front...

-Arnold Palmer played his last round in the US Open
-Rangers were celebrating their Stanley Cup
-Knicks vs ROckets in Game 5 of the NBA Championships
-Griffey Jr. tied Babe Ruth for most home runs before June 30


Oh, and this...

24 Hours of Le Mans is this week-end as well. Porsche is back competing for the overall victory after a 16 year absence
