Jon Hamm is also ready.
And, of course, Jenna Fischer is ready to feud with her former co-star and Bruins fan John Krasinski over this series.
-- Drake and his Toronto Raptors are heading to the NBA Finals against the Warriors and the rapper happens to have some tattoos that make this matchup pretty awkward.
Drake has some ink paying tribute to Steph Curry and Kevin Durant and even said "Golden State running practice at my house" in his song Summer Sixteen.
It's safe to say Drake won't be wearing any tank tops to the games.
Smash Mouth also tried to roast Drake on Twitter and got absolutely buried for it.
QUOTE OF THE DAY: "My back, back of my legs, my neck, just achiness all over. Nothing really feels good right now. I'm sure everybody here has experienced that. Think about trying to go out and make pitches. I could've just ducked the start from the get-go. I didn't want to do that, didn't want to put us in that position. Went out there and tried to take the ball, AC didn't like what he saw, so he took me out of the game. I wanted to stay in the game but he came out there. That's that." -- David Price, on why he left the game after just three batters on Saturday
