We're finally on Friday, on the cusp of the weekend, and closer to the kickoff of Patriots/Jets on Sunday at 4:30. I'll get this out of the way first, and I'm embarrassed about it. This game concerns me. Greatly. To me, this has the makings of an "exorcise the demons" type of game for the … Continue reading We’re Almost There – Honestly!
Can we just get to Sunday already? The non-stop talk by the Jets, along with the media repeating every bit of it over and over again was amusing Monday and Tuesday. By this point though, what else can be said? Lets just line 'em up and play the game. I'm trying to avoid the articles … Continue reading Longest. Week. Ever.
From the Washington Post: It's hard to choose anyone to root for in this most compelling matchup of the weekend. Belichick is a certified cheater, having been fined a huge chunk of change three years ago when the NFL determined his team improperly filmed walk-throughs of opposing team practices and used that tape to their … Continue reading Some In The Media Don’t Even Try To Be Accurate Anymore
The Jets can't help themselves. They just can't. Given an opportunity they will always talk trash. It is who they are, and you can argue that it has worked for them. Yesterday I tweeted my media myth of the week - That the Ravens/Steelers game is infinitely more physical than Patriots/Jets will be. It's a … Continue reading Jets Keep Talking, Cone of Silence Engulfs Foxborough
Taking a minute from the Patriots/Jets hype, (so much for the idea Rex Ryan was going lay low this week) here's a look at the ticket situation for the Celtics this week. The Houston and Sacramento games are currently selling at prices 58% and 48% below the Celtics season avg. The Friday/weekend bump is clearly … Continue reading Ticket Watch – Celtics Week Ahead
So it begins. The latest installment of Patriots/Jets will take place on Sunday afternoon at 4:30, thanks to the Jets wildcard victory over the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday night. In some ways it should be a very fun week, anticipating the game, and seeing what the principals involved (mostly the Jets) have to say about … Continue reading Patriots/Jets Set For Sunday, Hype Machine Started
The NFL wildcard playoff round is this weekend, and the Patriots will be comfortably watching from their living rooms, waiting to find out the identity of their first postseason opponent. Pats focus on fixing flaws during bye week - Robert Lee has the Patriots spending their time this week on self-improvement. Brady has a trusty bunch - … Continue reading Patriots Set To Watch Wild Weekend
So there's an odd headline. No, one thing has nothing to do with the other, but both items are worthy of note this morning. There was a terrific game played at the Garden last night between the two best teams in the NBA, record-wise. Rajon Rondo recorded a triple-double with 12 points, 10 rebounds and … Continue reading Celtics Hang On Against Spurs, Buckley Comes Out.
You might remember the post Odd Column Changes From NY Times here after the Patriots had beaten the Jets 45-3 and New York Times columnist William Rhoden has hastily changed up his column about the Patriots, Bill Belichick, Spygate and the Jets. An article by the Columbia Journalism Review examines the entire situation, and has the … Continue reading NY Times on Rhoden Column Switch: “We goofed.”
The team with the best record in the NBA, the (somewhat) surprising San Antonio Spurs, who sit at 29-5 will be in Boston tonight to take on the team with the second-best record in the NBA, the 26-7 Celtics. High-level meeting - Bob Ryan hopes that tonight is an NBA Finals preview. Tim Duncan, Spurs a … Continue reading Celtics, Spurs Set To Meet Tonight
