It's the first Saturday in May. It's time for the Kentucky Derby. It's time to watch 20 horses you've never heard of go around a track in two minutes. And then you'll know one horse.
Hard to believe, but no horse has won the Triple Crown in the ESPN era.
The NHL second round begins with two games on Versus Friday, and Saturday NBC has the marquee matchup - Penguins vs. Capitals. Sid the Kid vs. the Great Eight.
The NBA has the Game 7 or Game 1 vibe this weekend, highlighted by Saturday's matchup between the Bulls and Celtics in Boston. The Bulls evened the series with a three-overtime win Thursday, playing four hours of clutch basketball.
Friday, the Heat try to force a Game 7 against the Hawks. The winner gets LeBron and the Cavaliers in the second round. Oh, goody.
NASCAR begins three weekends of Saturday night racing in Richmond. Won't be anybody flying into the fence there.
On MASN, you have the Orioles trying to stay out of the AL East cellar against the Blue Jays, who are trying to hang onto first. The last-place Nationals continue their series against the Cardinals, who lead the NL Central.
