Err... Excuse me, I mispoke. I got so wrapped up in talking about other riddles I didn't look closely at this riddle. I believe the answer is not Sunday, but "Saturday".

Let's see if my breaking down of this bad grammar riddle is correct:

"the day before tomorrow" is "today"

which makes

"two days after" mean "the day after tomorrow"

but

"the day BEFORE two days after" would it's actually 1 day after today---

which means what the riddle is actually saying is:

Tomorrow is Sunday.

Ergo, "today" is Saturday.
