51 Days

...since Ohio State took the field. Some sporting events you can accomplish in 51 days:

• The Olympics (14 days)
  
• Any Grand Slam tennis tournament (14 days)
  
• The gap between the French Open and Wimbledon (14 days)
  
• The NCAA Tournament (21 days, champion plays 6 games)
  
• The MLB 2006 Postseason (25 days, St. Louis played 16 games)
  
• The 2006 College Baseball Playoffs (25 days, Oregon State played 13 games)
  
• The NFL Playoffs (28 days, champion plays 3 or 4 games)
  
• The World Cup (31 days, champion plays 7 games)
  
• The entire PGA Offseason (32 days)
  
• The gap between Wimbledon and the U.S. Open (50 days)

On the bright side, the gap is seven days shorter than last year's NHL playoffs (58 days, Carolina played 25 games). Way to go BCS system!

(By the way, go Ohio State, beat Florida.)
