Red Sox / Red Sucks?

The Red Sox are not shining like we are used to seeing this season. With a record of 12 wins and 18 losses, they sit in last place in the American League East division. This is not what we are used to seeing and they need to turn around and represent Boston like they have the last 100+ years. Their next series starts tonight against Cleveland and we need nothing less than a W on the boards.

Celtics Vs. Hawks

“A loss in Game 5 to the Atlanta Hawks (2-3) has left the Boston Celtics (3-2) with a second chance to close out their first-round series. This time that opportunity will arrive in Boston.” Anyone who watched the game on Tuesday night was out of their seats as Rondo tried to rally back the troops and clinch the series. However it proved to much for the Celtics as Josh Smith drained a few key shots to close the game.

Tonight however we are playing in our house and I want to clarify that Rondo will have a triple double and the Hawks will be sent back to Atlanta. Last time we played in Boston against the Hawks we won by 22 and tonight I feel as If the game will be close and we will pull away by 3-7 points. Wear your jersey proud and GO GREEN!

3 Bruins Still Playing

So over the past few weeks I have depressing nights since the Bruins lost and couldn’t find it in me to write about the game 7 loss to Washington. Now that my wounds have healed I think I can finish off my last Boston Bruins blog on the 2011-2012 seasons. So as everyone can imagine they lost in the first round to the number 7 seed the Washington Capitals but enough about that game. This blog we are going to talk about the 3 stars of the Bruins that will be competing for their country in the coming world hockey cup tournament. None of the players will be competing for team USA but as you can imagine our captain and 6foot 9 defensemen Zdeno Chara will represent his hometown of Slovakia. Chara with the fastest slap shot in the NHL will add power to his team and came out victorious in the first round matchup. The second big star from the bruins playing overseas in the world cup is the 6 foot David Krejci who will represent the Czech Republic. His team who also competed Monday afternoon came out victorious which show us that as long as you have a bruin on the ice, you are bound to win. The final player selected by his home country is our coming goal keeper Anton Khudobin which will represent Kazakhstan. His team has yet to play but will hopefully come out on top in the first round. We can keep cheering for them so let’s go Bruins!

Bruins Teaser

So I'm saving the big blog for after this series is over. Hear is a teaser of my experience at Game 2 with my girlfriend. Enjoy the photos. We were in section 117 Row 2.

Beard-A-Thon

With the playoff spot clinched for the Bruins, they have decided to leave a few of their key player’s home while traveling for game 81 against the Senators.  Zdeno Chara, Patrice Bergeron, and Tim Thomas have been told to stay home and rest up before the playoffs. Along with them, Johnny Boychuk who is injured will stay behind with the veterans.

The Bruins finished the season as of today with a record of 47-29-4. They logged 98 points and allowed 2.44 goals a game while scoring 3.18 goals per game. With numbers being posted like that there is no doubt in my mind that lord Stanley will stay in Boston for another year.

Let’s keep cheering on the black and yellow and in the meantime help charity by participating in the annual beard-a-thon. All proceeds raised help the Boston Bruins Foundation.

Please Pledge my brother! 100% goes to charity! and read on how you can help out!

Red Sox are BACK

With Baseball season underway it’s time for the Red Sox to play ball. In the season opener, the Boston Red Sox took on the Detroit Tigers as Boston’s pitcher Jon Lester squared off on the mound against Detroit’s Justin Verlander. Although baseball is not this bloggers favorite sport, it is America pastime sport of choice so it’s only right that I incorporate some statistics about the game.

The red sox struggled at the plate only posting 5 hits for the entire game compared to Detroit’s 10. Not only did they post such low hitting numbers, but superstars like Ellsbury and Youkilis went 0-4 and neglected to help their team offensively. As you can imagine the game went very slow and the first real action took place in the 7^th inning when Detroit scored the first run of the game off of a double.

Following the 7^th inning, the Red Sox did not score in the 8^th however once again Detroit struck back scoring one more run in the bottom of the 8^th to take the lead 2-0. They scored off a sacrifice fly to center field.

Going into the 9^th it appeared that all was lost for the Red Sox. Then David Ortiz had a sacrifice fly that helped Pedroia score bringing the score to 2-1. Shortly after that, Ryan Sweeney hit a deep triple that drove in the tying run before the top of the inning was over. With this game being in Detroit, they had a chance to seal it in the bottom of the 9^th and that’s exactly what they did via a walk off hit to left field.

Now the Red Sox are 0-1 on the season as they move forward. Do they have what it takes this year?
