It feels wasteful writing about the November 2017 sports trends when it means that reading it would potentially pull one away from this year's World Series. The fall classic has proven to be just that, with two games — Game 2 and Game 5 — that have proven to be all-time greats. That said, even those who aren't fans of baseball have had plenty of entertainment recently, as the calendar currently sits in that rare window during which all four of the major North American sports as well as the Premier League are currently underway.
It's clear that November is a ripe time for sports when looking at the ideas listed here. One indicator is that sports-branded partnerships are on the rise, with NBA, Premier League, and NHL sponsorships listed featuring the likes of Lebron James, Dirk Nowitzki, David Beckham, and Connor McDavid.
