Hey, welcome to the Digital television age, as all analog devices go dark today unless you have a digital converter. We’re still two months away from the start of preseason football and a month away from training camp. Hockey is over tonight, basketball could be over on Sunday, Interleague play returns this weekend and we have the College Baseball World Series on tap.

On Friday night, the long NHL season ends with Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. Detroit looks to hoist their second straight cup, while Pittsburgh is attempting to steal it from them in the Motor City. The game takes place tonight at 8pmET on a real network-NBC.

On Saturday, fans can track the 24 hours of Le Mans race on the Speed Channel. The coverage starts at 8:30amET and continues at 4:30 and midnight. The 24 Hours of Le Mans is the world’s oldest sports car race in endurance racing, held annually since 1923 near the town of Le Mans, Sarthe, France. Commonly known as the Grand Prix of Endurance, it runs on a circuit containing closed public roads that are meant not only to test a car and driver’s ability to be quick, but also to last over a 24 hour period.

There’s a WBO Welterweight title fight on HBO between Miguel Cotto and John Clottey. The fight is televised beginning at 10:35pmET and takes place in Madison Square Garden, in New York City. The latest money line has Cotto at -350 and Clottey +275.

The college season is about to end as the NCAA Division I men’s and women’s Outdoor track and field championships take place Saturday. The meet is televised on CBS at 1pm from Fayetteville, Arkansas.

Another college sport that ends as school is finished is baseball. The College World Series has become a great event that takes place in Omaha. Arkansas takes on Cal State Fullerton on ESPN at 2pmET, while Virginia faces LSU on ESPN at 7pmET.

In golf, the LPGA’s McDonald Championship takes place in Havre de Grace, Maryland. The Golf Channel televises the third round at 4pmET. Lorenca Ochoa is one of the favorites to win her third major.

The PGA tunes up for the U.S. Open with the St. Jude Classic. The third round is televised on The Golf Channel and 1pmET and CBS at 3pmET. Phil Mickelson is back from his hiatus, helping his wife cope with breast cancer, and shot a 68 in the opening round. That still put seven shots off the lead (Brian Gay) at press time.

Interleague coverage is back on FOX as the Mets take on the Yankees in the Bronx; St. Louis is at Cleveland and the Chicago White are at Milwaukee. One of those games will be televised in your area at 4pmET.

On Sunday, the College Baseball World Series continues with Arizona State facing North Carolina on ESPN at 2pmET and Southern Miss vs. Texas at ESPN2 at 7pmET.

Golf continues on CBS with the final round of the St. Jude Classic on CBS at 3pmET and on the Golf Channel at 1pmET. The LPGA’s McDonald’s Championship final round will be live on the Golf Channel at 4pmET. It’s a sad day for the LPGA tour when they have a major championship and can’t get on one of the major networks.

Major league baseball and Interleague play continues on Sunday as the final gme of Mets and Yankee series is televised on TBS at 1pmET. Minnesota takes on the Chicago Cubs in another exciting Interleague game at 2:10pmET on WGN. Finally at night, St. Louis takes on Cleveland on ESPN Sunday night matchup at 8pmET.

In motor sports, the good news is that 24 Hours of Le Mans finish is televised on the Speed Channel. The bad news is that you have to wake up early to see it on a Sunday morning (6amET).

In NASCAR, the Sprint Cup’s LifeLock 400 takes place on TNT at 2pmET. The race takes place in Michigan International Speedway and the favorite is Carl Edwards, who won it in 2007. Last year, Dale Earnhardt Jr. was the victor, but he hasn’t done a whole lot since then.

Finally, if you want to end your weekend sports viewing style, check out what could be the final game of the NBA season. The Orlando Magic hope to salvage one more game of the series when they take on the Los Angeles Lakers for Game 5 of the NBA Finals in Orlando on ABC at 8pmET. If this game goes overtime, it’s not going back to Disneyland.
