I consider myself to be a rabid sports fan, particularly Boston sports. I played basketball, baseball and golf growing up and I continue to hack around on a golf course and play First Base for the Melrose Pondfeilders, a vintage base ball club that plays by 1861 rules. I am a die-hard fan of the Red Sox, Celtics, Bruins and Patriots as well. I am a Celtics Beat Writer for the CLNSRadio Blog as well as an occasional co-host on the CLNSRadio Celtics Postgame Show.

Harlem Globetrotters Tickets We are a little less than 24 hours before all position players are expected to report that they are in fact in Fort Myers and it appears as if all hands are on deck for the Boston Red Sox. Friday will be filled with physical exams and Saturday will be the first [...]

Red Sox finally compensated for Theo Epstein

    Well, it only took 4 months, but the Boston Red Sox have finally received compensation for allowing former General Manager Theo Epstein leave the organization to take a promotion with the Chicago Cubs. In my opinion, this should have been wrapped up before Theo was even allowed to walk out the door, but [...]

Mavericks cruise past the Celtics

Dirk-Nowitzki-Mavericks--Photosport

It may have been better for the Celtics to not have even showed up for this game tonight and gone right to Oklahoma City. In a game that was controlled by the Mavericks from beginning to end, Dallas wins easily over the Celtics, 89-73. Boston was without Kevin Garnett and Rajon Rondo, with Rondo serving [...]

    The Celtics will try to salvage a bit of dignity tonight as they travel to Dallas to take on the Mavericks at the American Airlines Center. The team has now lost 5 out of their last 6 games and 3 of those losses were to teams under .500 and not expected to make [...]

This is the first Spring Training in a long time that hasn’t had Tim Wakefield as a part of it. Reality is really setting in now two days after Wake officially announced his retirement and with pitchers and catchers reporting to camp today. Another missing piece that has been a mainstay of Red Sox Spring [...]

For a fan of all Boston sports like me, it’s been a tough couple of weeks. I’ve been in mourning after the Patriots lost in the Super Bowl and leaning on the Celtics and Bruins to make me forget hasn’t been working so well. I am looking for an outlet to…not so much vent my [...]

Rose-less Bulls are still too much for Celtics

Posted by Sean Bakke & filed under Boston Celtics, NBA.

You can never really say that officiating costs any team a win, so I won’t. However in a horribly officiated game in Chicago tonight, the Bulls overtook the Celtics and withstood a late run to come out victorious, 89-80. It was a game of runs, and Chicago had the last one. The Celtics could not [...]

Bulls will be looking for revenge as they host Celtics tonight

     The Celtics are a Jekyll and Hyde team right now. Throughout the season they have had performances that lead us as fans to believe they can contend in the East. Then there are games like last night where we question whether or not they can even make the playoffs. Call it getting hyped for [...]
