The Deuce Files return, where we recommend a few articles found over the weekend that are worth another read and maybe even a print out for your special sit-down time.

A lot going on this weekend, between finally seeing an end to what may be the first first-round NBA playoff series to be referred to as "classic," to losing money on the Kentucky Derby because the one longshot you didn't bet on decided to come up strong on the inside, to quietly trying to remember how to pronounce "Byfuglien" after a few fun pops. Whatever you were up to, after the jump you'll find a few items to pensively peruse after that first cup of Monday morning coffee.

Regrets... Wang's Had A Few: New York Islanders owner Charles Wang told a Newsday reporter that if he had to do it all over again, he probably wouldn't buy the Long Island-based NHL franchise. That probably has a little less to do with how spirit-crushingly awful the on-ice product has been, than the $208.8 million Wang's dumped into the team since buying it in 2000. Pretty sure Alexei "Yes, it's a turtleneck" Yashin's contract is somewhere on that regret list, too.

The Making of Mr. Green: The Washington Post's Barry Svrluga pens a good profile of the Caps' star blueliner Mike Green.

No More for Naslund?: The New York Post is reporting that Markus Naslund informed Rangers GM Glen "Strongly Worded Letter" Sather that he would not be playing out the last year on his two-year, $8-million contract, signed last summer.
