cheers chums (and other musings)

What a weekend
* I had a good sports weekend. My Patriots slaughtered the Titans, my Celtics blew out the Raptors, my Trojans squeaked out the win against Notre Dame and my favorite Nascar driver, Jimmie Johnson, won the race in Charlotte and increased his points lead in the chase. All in all, a very upbeat [...]

ah yes, that’s more like it

Domination. Hello, my friend. I have missed you SO MUCH! Don’t leave me again for so long next time, ok?
And to those who say the Patriots ran up the score, I just have to say… *yawn* Take that weak sauce outta here.

hey celebrities, stop quitting twitter

Dear famous people,
Nobody gives a rat’s ass if you quit Twitter. While we’re on the subject, stop deleting your Twitter and then changing your mind and creating a new one. That’s stupid. Assuming anyone cares about you enough to follow you twice, it’s still an extra step that you shouldn’t force your fans to take. [...]

pep talk for tom brady (and other musings)

Son of a bitch! Son – of – a – biiiiiiiitch!
* Dear Tom Brady, You do remember that losing is NOT an option, right? Especially when the other team has spent the week trash talking you and their head coach is a large buffoon?! Oh and your counterpart on the other side is an inexperienced [...]

brady’s gone soft?

In Patriots-related news, this article from Dan Shaughnessy in the Globe this morning had me rolling: Brady’s gone soft
Favorite excerpts:
…he’s a football player, damn it. And it is not OK for him to be photographed like a little boy eating mushy food spooned out of a Gerber jar.
It’s like watching Jeter morph into A-Rod. Brady [...]

celtics afterthoughts: don’t call it a comeback

Celtics @ Kings 108-63
What a serious ass kicking. It hardly seemed fair. 45 points? Really? I can’t believe I stayed up and watched the whole thing. Leave it to the Celtics. Lose 2 in a row and then come back like an angry bear mauling the first poor bastard with the guts to poke it [...]

video: brady come back

Favorite line: “I’m so desperate now, I even drafted… Satan Manning.” (Haha!)
The Pats blanked the Bills today, 13-0 and still missed the playoffs. My sister informed me that I was going to “have to” root for the Jets today and her boyfriend Brett Favre. Mmm yeah. No. That was not going to happen. No way, [...]

celtics afterthoughts: run forrest run!

Celtics v. 76ers 110-91
Wow, those 76ers sure can run. Especially without Elton Brand. For a little while, early in the game, I thought the fast break transition game was going to be a problem. Silly me. The C’s broke away in the 2nd half and put this one away early and easily. The [other] love [...]

thoughts on…

Celtics: As good as the Celtics looked against the Bulls, they looked equally awful against the Pacers. I’m going to chalk this one up to fatigue and assume it won’t happen again any time soon *knocking on wood*. Speaking of the Bulls, could Tyrus Thomas be any more of an overrated tool? I know he [...]

mediocrity blows

In Patriots news, I’ve decided I really don’t like having to cheer for a mediocre team like other fans have to do. Doesn’t really work for me at all. No, I’m not going to “switch teams” or “jump on some other bandwagon”. As far as I’m concerned, there’s only one option for me in every league and [...]
