Stuff To Tune In To And Zone Out On For May 18th
• NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs. Game 1, Carolina Hurricanes at Pittsburgh Penguins. Sidney Crosby and the Penguins are in their second consecutive Eastern Conference Finals. Sigh. It shoulda been you, Ovie. [Versus, 7:30 ET]
• MLB Baseball. Minnesota Twins at New York Yankees. Can the Twins blow it and lose on a walkoff hit of some sort for the fourth consecutive game. Yes they can! [ESPN, 7:00 ET]
• Fat Guy Golfing. Back-to-back episodes of The Haney Project: Charles Barkley, The Final Round. He has to get better eventually, right? [The Golf Channel, 10:00 ET]
• Always Worth Watching. Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations. Anthony travels to Russia, probably drinks a lot of vodka. Lucky guy. [Travel Channel, 10:00 ET]
• Overrated Cable Movie of the Night. The Princess Bride. Yes, I think this movie is overrated – shoot me. At the same time, I’m one of two people who actually enjoyed that “Geico Cavemen” show, so clearly I don’t know what the hell I’m talking about. [Bravo, 9:00 ET]
