Monday

Spoiler Alert: No Triple Crown this year, Nyquist was at 3-5 odds to win and went into the Preakness Stakes last Saturday in first place but came out in third place. Exaggerator had a 3-1 chance and at the very end pulled ahead of Nyquist and won the Preakness, this all proves that in sports, some teams have the best chance at winning a game, while some teams don't. This past weekend, the teams from last year's NBA Finals suffered unbelievable losses, the Cleveland Cavs 10-game playoff winning streak was brought to a end by the Raptors in Toronto, and OKC Thunder put on a clinic against the Warriors after Draymond Green was hit with a foul for kicking a player in the groin. Meanwhile, the NHL is getting closer to the Stanley Cup Final and the WWE Universe say the return of an old superstar.
