- Stanley Cup Playoffs Begin: Only 16 teams remain alive in the quest for Lord Stanley's Cup, headlined by the Chicago Blackhawks and Pittsburgh Penguins as the top seeds in this year's tournament. What separates the men from the boys come playoff time in the NHL, and which teams have a shot to make a deep postseason run? Hear our take.

- Conference Semi-Finals Preview: The NBA's playoff field has been cut in half, with just 8 teams still in the hunt for the Larry O'Brien Trophy. Can the Chicago Bulls continue to surprise? Are the Memphis Grizzlies legit title contenders? Will Carmelo Anthony take his game to another level? We tackle these questions and more in our NBA postseason chat.

- Easy Money For Mayweather: On Saturday night, Floyd Mayweather reminded the world why he is the best pound-for-pound fighter of this generation in a lopsided unanimous decision win over Robert Guerrero. How did Floyd manage to make it look so easy, and who is best suited to take on "Money" later this year? We'll tell you.

Plus:

We discuss the controversy surrounding the Most Valuable Player Award in the NBA, and the surprisingly good starts of both the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees early on in the Major League Baseball season!
