Let’s Go Celtics!
Contrary to my prediction before this series started, I’ve got a feeling the Celtics will win tonight and clinch the NBA championship. As much as I’d love to personally see the C’s win game 7 I see Paul Pierce leading the Celtics through a very tough game and ending the night as NBA champions. Let’s […]
Web Quotes and Counterpoints VI
Double post today to make up for my latest unexplained absence from the blog! Sorry for violating my own advice from Web Quotes and Counterpoints V about posting short notes to let everyone know the deal. So contrary to what I wrote on the last day of May, I had tickets to Game 2 of […]
Celtics POWEr to Two Game Lead
The big, big take away from Game 2 of the back to the 80’s NBA Finals featuring the flashy offensive one man team Los Angeles Lakers against the grimy team-oriented defensive Boston Celtics is that the C’s are much, much more physical than the Lakers (starting 5 and bench) and can dominate the game when […]
Beat LA
The Boston Celtics pro shop got it right, two words are enough: Click the shirts to go through to the Celtics pro shop. I just picked up one of each color. They won’t get here in time for me to wear to Game 1 Game 2 [oops] but I feel it’s gonna be a long […]
Happy Birthday Mom!

Today is the 111th Day of the Year
Today is the 111th day of the year, and as such marks the year being 1/3 over in my calendar. As the day of the birth of myself occurs in the last 32/33 days of the year, I write off the totality of those days as one massive holiday. So, what have I gotten accomplished […]
Today’s Biking Path Part 2
In a follow up to yesterday’s post showing my biking path here’s another Google map showing the route I took to get to an apartment on Winter Hill to watch the Sox-Yankees and Bruins-Canadians game last night (both of the good guys won). This second leg of my trip was another 15 miles, so in […]
The Final Two: An Update to My Final Four Picks
It’s time again for us to take a look back at my final four picks and see how they stack up now that we’re down to the last two teams. Last time we checked, 75% of my final four picks were still intact, with USC being the sole incorrect pick. Over the weekend, Kansas beat […]
My Celtics Playoff Tickets
About eight months ago I made a great decision, to buy Celtics half-season tickets. By my best estimates I went to about half of the regular season games I had tickets for but yesterday, the real reason I bought Celtics season tickets arrived in my mailbox: Yup those are my Celtics playoff tickets and nope […]
