Observations from attending back-to-back sporting events yesterday





  • As fun as snow-loaded games are to attend, they can be equally as miserable. Tossing snow into the air like a 5 year old, in unison with 55,000 other people when your team scores a TD is truly an unreal feeling; The polar opposite of which is walking a mile and a half back to the car, soaking wet, with every car on Route 1 splashing you as they drive by.
  • I need to invest in a pair of snowpants.
  • Rajon Rondo is gaining confidence with every game. This does not bode well for the rest of the league. There was a stretch where he just carved up the Knicks, driving to the basket and seemingly daring someone to stop him.
  • Brian Scalabrine is just terrible. Spare me the lines about him doing to "little things" or being such a good team player. This all went out the window when he managed to fall flat on his ass and still manage to draw a foul. Furthermore, I could tell from the 300's KG was bullshit to check back into the game becuase Veal fouled out.
  • The Celtics Dancers (if you would like to call them that) are just another reason why I'm horrified to have a daughter. And if I do, may the only chance she sets foot on a professional basketball court is as a backcourt starter for the relaunch of the WNBA, circa 2040.
  • If I wasn't from Boston, I'd probably hate us too.
