Drop Bottom Time

Sorry dudes...it has been a while since I wrote. Mea Culpa. But, in that time, our two winter teams have had a similar thing happen. They have become the proverbial Phoenix rising after hitting rock bottom.

Exhibit A - the Bruins. That game against the Pens was indeed the bottom. NESN reports that it had its highest ratings that night and they put up a stinker of epic proportions. Truly is rock bottom! However, seemed to be a wake up call. The team that was less inspirational than dead men walking suddenly has a pulse. Hopefully, the wake up call will be heard and continue.

Exhbit B - the Celtics. The team in green, after dropping that dreadful Nets game, has gone thru a metamorphisis. The team appears to be getting healthier, working stronger, and acting like a team. The so called blahs they had gone thru have been blown away with the wind. Along with that, the team is now playing defense again...and the additions of Nate Robinson and Mike Finley have pumped some more life into the bench.

Buckle up. The rest of the season might yet be interesting!!!

Loose ends

Just a few random thoughts during the past few days:

I'm thinking the Bruins are doing the "better luck next year" routine. I think they are believing that this is a down year and next year, with the picks they will get and what should be the inevitable improvement of the team that has done so poorly this year, they should be better.

Got to agree with WEEI's Rob Bradford. The Sox are not going to be as flat offensively as people think.

Nate Robinson....may be short, be he is helping to serve a tall order on this team. Got a little bit of "Energizer" bunny in him.

Hey Felger....know you love the Bruins, but don't panic. Sure, this may not be their year, but there is promise for next year. I know you are often in it for the now, but the window actually looks brighter.

For all of those Pats draft naysayers who believe that Pats haven't had a good draft in years, two things. First, they have found other ways to use those picks ( see Randy Moss) to build the team. And, this is a can't miss draft.

Oh no...it is almost March Madness time.

Randy Moss to Dallas. Did I really hear that? Just say NOOOO!


Nice comeback win for the Celts tonight....they actually showed - gulp - glimpses of their November form.
