- And just days after the 2019-20 season finally ended, the 2020-21 European soccer season begins with the English Community Shield match, a season-opening tradition pitting the FA Cup Champion (Arsenal) vs. the EPL champion (Liverpool). The EPL season proper begins September 12th.
- Update on a previous story: Randy Frankel of the Tampa Bay Rays is about to throw 4,000,000 pounds to start a process to save Wigan Athletic Football Club, but the relegation to third-tier League One was secured when Sheffield Wednesday's 12-point deduction for their own financial mess will be applied similarly starting THIS SEASON, not off of last season's total.
- Charlton Athletic Club are suing for Wednesday's place in the second-tier Championship. Charlton was the team which would've stayed up if Wednesday's points were deducted on the just-completed season.
- College football DID successfully kick off with one FCS game tonight, promoted to ESPN as a result.
