There's still plenty of snow on the ground, but the Red Sox will begin their season for real in Philadelphia on Monday afternoon. (3:05 pm) Predictions on the performance of the team are all over the place, with some predicting a return to the top of the AL East, with others insisting this isn't a … Continue reading Red Sox Set For Monday Opener
BSMW Investigation Reveals HotSportzTakes Coerced
A lengthy investigation which included interviews with dozens of people involved with the Boston sports media reveals that powerful organization actually controls the content which is disseminated through the various media outlets within New England.

Burned By Scorching Hot Sportz Takes
How long before all teams use the Bill Belichick/Patriots method of dealing with the media? The day is coming, I'm telling you. Yes, there are those in sports who enjoy using the media and cozying up to them to get fawning coverage, whether they actually deserve it or not. There are many more, I believe, … Continue reading Burned By Scorching Hot Sportz Takes
Peter King Scores Exclusive Interview With Roger Goodell, Also, Dog Bites Man.

Shooting From The Hip…
A few things on my mind this week: After 49ers linebacker Chris Borland retired this week at the age of 24, citing the risks of the game, many in the media used this as an opportunity to laud Borland and use their platform to lecture the public on the dangers of the game. Some tried … Continue reading Shooting From The Hip…
Revis Fallout Continues…
The Bruins and Celtics have had exciting wins this week, and the Red Sox are ramping up towards opening day. But still much of the local talk this week has centered on the bumbling, incompetent, cheap, Super Bowl winning franchise that plays NFL games in Gillette Stadium. The Patriots have had five players from their … Continue reading Revis Fallout Continues…
Here We Go Again…
Some people will never learn. Granted, after the Patriots won the Super Bowl (which they indeed DID do, by the way) I did not foresee the parting of ways with Vince Wilfork, Brandon Browner and Darrelle Revis as the first moves towards the team's title defense. But if there is one thing that we've learned … Continue reading Here We Go Again…
Twitter, Cap and JaVale, Oh My!
Help me out here. So John Dennis and Gerry Callahan, who were once suspended for making racist remarks on the air, Kirk Minihane, who was suspended for calling a woman a "gutless bitch" and saying she should "drop dead" on the air, and John Tomase, who forced his paper to issue a public retraction and … Continue reading Twitter, Cap and JaVale, Oh My!
Young Celtics Can’t Hang On Against Warriors
The Celtics ran out to a 26 point lead against the team many believe is the best in the NBA right now, the Golden State Warriors. The Celtics didn't so much lose that lead and eventually the game, as they did return to the mean. What they did in the first half wasn't really sustainable, … Continue reading Young Celtics Can’t Hang On Against Warriors
Dale and Holley Sticking Around A Bit Longer
A bit of positive news, in my opinion, from Chad Finn this morning, (Dale Arnold-Michael Holley reunion has worked for WEEI) as he reports that Michael Holley is about to sign a new deal with WEEI and that he and Dale Arnold will be remaining together in the afternoons on the station - along with … Continue reading Dale and Holley Sticking Around A Bit Longer
