Bruins Lose A Heartbreaker.

Hell of a season and playoff run by this Bruins team.  They gave the city of Boston something to root for when the city needed it most.  It's never easy watching your team go down with the championship on the line, but you've gotta be proud of what this team accomplished.  Plus, with a young talented foundation this is going to be a fun and exciting team to watch for years to come.  As for what to do now as a Boston sports fan? Red Sox are in first place in the best division in baseball.  And the Patriots kick off training camp in a few weeks.  Never a dull moment in this city.

P.S. Hats off to Chicago. Great city. Great team. Beat us fair and square.

Good Week For Aaron Hernandez...

So unless you've been living under a rock for the past couple of days, you've probably heard about how Aaron Hernandez is a possible suspect in a homicide.  You've also probably heard about him currenly being sued for allegedly shooting a guy in the face at a Miami strip club.  It seems like every new breaking story surrounding the Patriots is bad.  It's definitely been a horrible offseason.  Here's how the offseason has basically gone so far: Pats lose AFC Championship. Welker signs with Denver. Pats trade out of first round. Dennard sentenced to month in jail. Gronk dances on a club stage and Rock Bottom's his friend.  Gronk breaks his arm. Gronk has surgery. Gronk has another surgery. Gronk has another surgery. Gronk finds out he needs back surgery. Pats sign Tim Tebow. Hernandez starts shooting everyone.

So that's basically the type of news Patriot fans have had to sit through.  It's gotten to the point where people are trying to convince themselves that Jake Ballard is going to come in and be one of the best tight ends in the league.  He's good but he isn't Gronk or Hernandez.

As far as the Hernandez situation goes, I'm really starting to think he may have actually killed this guy in North Attleboro. Obviously I hope I'm dead wrong, but the news reports are not promising.  I think at the very least Hernandez knows the person who killed this guy.  Fortunately I'm usually wrong in situations like this.

P.S: This is what happens when you smoke weed in college.  No wonder Hernandez fell to the 4th round.

Holy Shit The Pats Signed Tebow.

What just happened? Is this still planet Earth? Tim Tebow is really a Patriot? Holy shit. I'm trying to think of a reason why they would sign him and I can't think of any.  As far as I know he can't play cornerback or rush the passer, so I'm really confused.  Maybe he'll be a goal line fullback? Tight end? Motivational speaker? Who knows.  All I know is that the Patriots just swept the spotlight from underneath the Bruins and ESPN is going to be insufferable between Tebow and Lebron all month.

I'm truly at a loss for words.

Stanley Cup Preview

Seriously how glorious is it that the Blackhawks are the favorite?  It's not often a team wins the Stanley Cup as an underdog and then returns two seasons later, only to still be an underdog.  The Bruins have gotta be salivating at the opportunity to continue showing the world just how good they are.  Seriously, ever since the epic comeback against the Maple Leafs this team has been on cruise control just plowing through everything in its path.  Rangers? Laughable. Penguins? They looked like real life Penguins trying to play hockey.  Now the B's try to make the Blackhawks look like Indians trying to play hockey.

There's two big story-lines in this series.  The first being the fact it's the first time since 1979 (I think) that two original six teams have faced off against each other.  The other being, of course, the impending conclusion to a historic playoff run in a city that is still recovering from a horrible tragedy.  I'm not expecting this series to be nearly as easy as the last two were, but I'm confident the Bruins will win and I like them to do it in 6 games.  David Krejci will be awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy and Zdeno Chara will be the first to hoist the Cup in front of 35,000 screaming massholes at the Gahden.  And when it's all said and done, Boylston Street will be shut down yet again, with a duckboat caravan holding the team that restored the city.  Just like Barry Obama had predicted.

Skip video to about 1:25. Or just be a Patriot and watch it all.

Kyle Love Released After Being Diagnosed With Diabeetus.

Coach Belichick shows no mercy. Oh, you wanna get diabeetus?  Go play for the Jets.  Obviously this decision is ruthless, but with Brady getting older the Pats can't be dicking around on defense with insulin dependent situational down linemen.  Happy trails, Kyle!


On a more serious note, Kyle, if you're reading this, you should call 866-6-LIBERTY.

Bruins Beat Leafs In Thrilling Game 7

This is a late post and the first in a long time, but hey, the groceries don't stock themselves.  But anyway, last night's game 7 OT win was incredible.  I seriously never fully enjoy watching hockey, but that game gave me pure chills of joy.  For me, it wasn't just about hockey.  It was about why people like me dedicate their lives to just eating, breathing, and bleeding sports.  It's comebacks like that that makes sports great.  You just never know what can happen.  I believe a great man once said, "ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!!!"

Looking ahead, I can't see how this doesn't light a fire under every Bruins player's ass.  Especially when your going up against the city's biggest rival in New York.  Boston NEEDS to win this series.  They have to prove they weren't just a one year wonder in 2011.  They have to give Boston another team to care about outside of the Red Sox.  I'm gonna ride this Bruins bandwagon so hard in these next few weeks.  Because if they can make hockey games as exciting as last night, I'll be needing a few extra boxes of Kleenex to cleanup my sportsgasms.

Put your hard hats on, grab your hammer and nails, cause we goin' to work. Lez do it!

Just an Incredible Night For Boston Sports.

Celtics win! Bruins win! Sox win! All in impressive fashion.  I'll hit on the Celts first. I admit I had my doubts about this game, but they just continued to prove to me how much pride and grit they really play with.  The amount of bricks Carmelo threw up would give Larry Lucchino a wet dream.  JR Smith backed his trash talk up with a tremendous 3-14 from the field. Well done, JR! Oh, and the Knicks wearing all black before the game for the "Celtics funeral" was comedy of the highest order.  We'll see you back in Boston.  Now for the Bruins.  The B's stumbled their way into the playoffs to say the least, but started out Game 1 on fire.  Totally different team out there.  They looked like a team hungry for another Cup.  If they can keep playing like this I don't see how Toronto stands a chance.  Too soft of a team, and Kessel can't handle Boston.

Capping of the orgasmic night was the Red Sox, who, like the Bruins, steamrolled Toronto.  Bucholz is the best pitcher in baseball right now, and its not even worth arguing.  His ERA is 1.01 through 6 starts. Nuff said.  And you can't forget Mike Napoli.  He's an absolute savage.  Watching him launch home runs is like watching old clips of atomic bombs and mortar rounds being dropped on Hiroshima on the History Channel. All in all a wonderful evening for the great fans of Boston sports.  Now cue the music!
