If your weekend plans include visits to Santa and holiday parties, you might as well throw on your ugly sweater and wash down your eggnog with a side of sports.

MLS (Major League Soccer)
When you’re not quite dressed right for the weather. The MLS Championship is this Saturday and we bet those soccer players are wishing they played football for all the extra gear. The Seattle Sounders are playing the Toronto FC (Football Club) in Toronto where it’s going to be a balmy 34 degrees at kickoff with a 70% chance of snow.
Overtime
Olympic gold medal gymnast Simone Biles will be the first honorary cheerleader for her hometown Houston Texans (NFL – National Football League) this weekend. She’ll even get to wear the legendary red boots. The boots dreams are made of.

The Cleveland Browns (NFL) are on their way to a winless football season. One of their fans has raised the required $10,000 to throw them a victory-less parade should they finish without a win. His fundraising efforts were completed by a $7,683 donation from Excedrin, the headache medication. Apparently the Browns give them a headache too.
