Time for a change of pace from the first two live blogs. This time the NFL has a Christmas present for us and it’s in the form of leading rusher Chris Johnson.
The Titans will try to keep their playoff hopes alive versus the high powered offense of Phillip Rivers and the Chargers.
If you missed the first two Live Blogs check them out: Celtics-Magic, Cavs-Lakers
Merry Christmas everybody! The first game was like a present you play with for 5 minutes to amuse you’re relatives. Now we get the real presents. LA. Cleveland. Kobe. LeBron.
Last year when the two faced off it became an instant classic. Kobe was the reigning MVP at the time, but now it’s LeBron. Who will take it this year? Only time will tell. One things for sure, this game will certainly have a huge barring on who wins come August. Read more…
It’s Christmas day and while most people are likely enjoying some Christmas cocktails and opening presents I’ve decided to spend this non-holiday (I’m Jewish) hunkered in front of the TV.
What to watch? Well, the NBA and NFL have delivered in the form of two marquee NBA matchups with the Celtics and Magic facing off in a Eastern Conference battle; along with the Cavs faces the Lakers or as I like to call it, the Lebrons facing the Kobes.
And to top it all off we get to watch the Titans and Chris Johnson face the Chargers and Phillip Rivers. Not a bad day of sports TV. Thanks Santa! Read more…
When it comes to driving in a car for days at a time claustrophobia isn’t the best virtue.
In the past five days we have driven over 2000 miles, gone through five states and defecated in some of the best gas station bathrooms The South has to offer.
We did get to stretch our legs on a few separate locals. First when we went camping in the Arizona desert, about an hour away from The Grand Canyon. I busted out my wife-beater and bought a 32 ounce bud light so I would look the part. When in Rome I suppose. Read more…
It has been a few days since my last post, and quite an eventful few to say the least.
After countless failed attempts at renting a car in San Francisco the future of our road trip was in jeopardy. On Thursday, what seemed like a last ditch effort to secure a ride home went up in smoke when Hertz screwed us over for a fourth time. There have been a lot of ironic titles on the trip so far, but Hertz is more fitting than any because they’re a pain to deal with.
Anyway, lucky for us blood is always thicker than water, and Sophie’s cousin Jason Carey came to our rescue; allowing us to the rent the car under his name.
We got on the road Thursday afternoon, and were able to get to the City of Angeles by dust. The ride was an epic one. Lots of winding roads along the coast of California. A beautiful site that everyone should have the joy of seeing in their life time. Read more…
“Everything that can go wrong will go wrong.”
Unfortunately, this was our motto for the first day of travel, but before we get to the nitty and gritty let’s talk about the good.
I “awoke” at six am to my mother calmly telling me to wake up. She did everything other than pack my clothes for me. She drove me to the airport, and packed me a lunch for the plane. I’m 22-years-old and not ashamed to say I’m still a mama’s boy. I arrived at Logan around seven a.m. for a flight which was leaving at 9:30.
What to do with the time? Read more…
If you have frequented random ramblings before (all five of you) you might have to come to read about basketball, wrestling, video games or other random topics. Over the next two weeks we will be mixing it up a bit by posting a running diary of my two-week odyssey I am about to embark on.
Tomorrow I leave for San Francisco with two of my closest friends. We’re flying out of Logan Airport in Boston, and landing in the city by the bay. There will be no flight back as we plan on driving our way home via rent-a-car. Read more…
Rasheed Wallace is a Celtic, and with his signing the Celtics can be considered legitimate 2010 contenders.
After a few trades and signings several teams on both coasts got better.
Whether it was the Diesel heading to Cleveland, Vincanity taking a trip home or Artest going Hollywood there was plenty of high profile action going on in NBA land. Read more…
With the NBA Draft Thursday it’s time to breakdown how things could shake out, and there are plenty of scenarios to choose from.
But first and foremost, trade winds are in the air.
Locally, the Celtics have been rumored in dealings with a number of teams, reportedly offering the rival Detroit Pistons Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen for Richard Hamilton, Tayshaun Prince and Rodney Stuckey. On Tuesday a rumored Rondo and Brian Scalabrine to Memphis for Rudy Gay and Michael Conley trade was floating around as well. Read more…
What can be written that has not already been said?
Kobe got the monkey off his back, cementing his post-Shaq legacy as the No. 1 alpha dog of his generation. He did his work, and will likely be considered a top 10 All-Time NBA player because of it. Read more…
