This week's top story lines include the NBA Conference Finals (see more below) and the Cleveland Indians walking off three times in a 4 game stretch. As the NBA and Stanley Cup playoffs start to wind down, I will try to get at least one game from those leagues included in my lists each week. When the playoffs are done, I will switch to primarily covering baseball games. The schedule for my summer blog is not certain yet. We will cross that path when we get there. Anyway, here is this week's list.

From two blown calls in baseball to overtime hockey games every night, there is a lot of things to talk about this week. I want to start by telling you how I determine these games. It's not just every overtime game. It's an overtime game or a close game that involved a comeback or was back and forth between the two teams and close all the way. I can't include every Stanley Cup Playoff game that went ... Read More

This week in sports was full of great highlights from the NBA Playoffs, MLB, and NHL. We could spend our time looking at highlights, or just recap the 5 most exciting games. But before we do, I want to give an honorable mention to an event that I would have included, but couldn't because it was not in this time frame.

Starting this Saturday, April 27, I will start a weekly blog highlighting the best moments in sports from the past week. These can include a buzzer beater from the NBA Playoffs, a walk off home run, or anything else that was special. I will count down from 5 until we get to the best moment. I am looking for you guys to suggest moments that you think should make the list.
