Well, maybe we'll have some time, a little more time to watch sports because there's lots going on this week.

The WNBA season has tipped off the first since the players and the league agreed to a historic labor deal that resulted in a huge pay boost for the women ballers.

The men are playing basketball and hockey, too, with the NBA and NHL playoffs wrapping up their second rounds.

And in golf, the second major of the season, the PGA Championship, tees off at Arana Mink Golf Club outside of Philly on Thursday.

I'm just glad you don't know anything about hockey because you can't tease me about the Flyers, who also got swept.

Okay, finally, in movies, the Hoity Toity Cannes Film Festival begins in France on Tuesday, where top indie filmmakers and auteurs will vie for the vaunted top prize, the Palme d'Or.

But more importantly, a movie near and dear to all our hearts is coming back to theaters this weekend to celebrate its 25th anniversary, Shrek.

25 years since Shrek.

I'm guessing it aged like an onion.

Everyone would be just saying every single line across the theater, so it would be a good time.

Did you know it was the first movie to win the Academy Award for Best Animated Film?

That was their first year in Shrek 1.

Great trivia tidbit.

That is all.

All right.

That is all the time we have.
