B-MORE – I just saw that the New England Revolution is in the MLS Semifinals and two realizations came to mind:
First, New England (actually, I consider all of the teams in New England Boston teams, but I guess that New England is the PC term) could win championships in every major sport this year, except for hockey. Actually, I don’t really follow hockey that much, but I am pretty sure that the Bruins are garbage. When did Boston become the most dominant sports town in the United States? Unbelievable!!!!
Second, I am certain that most of the people in Boston don’t know/care about the MLS and that the police will definitely not be mobilizing their riot squad if the New England Revolution actually do win. It’s sad how soccer gets no love in the U.S. when it is the biggest sport in the world.
Therefore, I just ask you to do me one favor and at least riot a little if the New England Revolution win. I know that it isn’t as big as the Sox or Celtics or Pats or even the BC Eagles, but don’t forget that Taylor Twellman is the star of the Revolution so you have to at least show a little love to a fellow Maryland Terrapin.
Actually, I might even fly up to Boston to celebrate with you outside of Fenway, especially since it will probably just be the two of us so I doubt that we will have to worry about getting pepper sprayed again.
CITY OF CHAMPIONS – I happened to watch the Bruins last night. The Celtics were up by like 40 at halftime. And nothing
else was on. So I flipped over and saw that the Bruins were tied 1 -1 in the 3rd period. I watched about 4 minutes, got bored and watched the Bionic Woman instead. I saw this morning that they lost 2 – 1. I want the Bruins to do well. As recently as 2002, I had a framed Anson Carter picture. It’s just since they traded Joey T. and he ended up winning the MVP. I just can’t believe in them as much as I want to.
GO REVS! GO TAYLOR! Way to score that goal!
Boston is turning into the city of champions, but the Celtics are not going to be apart of it. The Red Sox obviously won the championship this year, the Pats are the odds on favorite to win the Super Bowl, the Bruins are garbage like Jay said, New England is doing well in MLS, wait a minute who cares about the MLS, and then we come to the Celtics. They are the most improved team in the NBA from last year, but remember they had a lot of room for improvement. I predict that they will make the playoffs, but they won’t even make it to the Eastern Conference Finals let alone win the championship. 5-0 does not make an entire season.
Hey, at least UMD showed a boston team what was up this weekend. Luv them Terps!!
