Almost boring being a Pats fan...
Man, it's almost boring to be a Pats fan lately, except when you look
who you are watching. The list of players and experience is just awesome, from the old regulars to the old foes, it's almost like watching an all star game every time they take the field. Bruschi, Moss, Harrison, Seau, and that kid, Brady.. What a time to be a Pats fan. Not as much of a fan of Baseball or Hockey, but I did grow up following the Redsox, Patriots, and the Hartford Failers (er, Whalers) as a kid so I do know pain. I had gotten to a point years ago for the sox of not saying "maybe next year" but "maybe in my lifetime". Now I am actually feeling pretty much spoiled. Still can't pick a favorite for Rednecks turning left since Dale died.. Maybe next year, maybe in my lifetime. |

Has any City's sports teams ever accomplished this? New Haven. One year the Blades won the EHL title, Yale won the Ivy League title, Hillhouse (my high school) won the New England basketball tournament, and Greist Manufacturing sponsored the state champion teens' baseball team. I was the second baseman on that team. :} That was in the days when New Haven was still a major manufacturing center for machines, machine tools, and armament. Lots of good jobs. No more. |

Rest easy - the Lord Stanley's Cup won't be coming to Boston anytime in the next century or two. Has any City's sports teams ever accomplished this? I believe that there have been two sports - like basketball/football or baseball/football, but I don't think it's been all of the pro sports. This year in Boston, there is a strong possibility of a college football championship (Boston College) Bzzzzzzzzzzzttttttt.....wrong. Ain't gonna be Ohio State Penitentiary. The better bet is that it won't be Boston College. :-) Don't be to sure about that - it's a good possibility. |

Hell, my school teams have been on top of the charts with a better championship record than the frekin' Yankees, since the early 70's. My kids team lost one match last year, first one since 1984!, When I was there we took the State 4 years straight, and we won't even start to talk about South Windsor Hockey;) Our teams have swept many times and I would not have to go back to 1916 when you played second base;) |
