This almost sounds like the little talking interlude that was in the middle of every Boyz II Men or Jodeci song in the 90's.  C'mon… can't you hear him saying this in the middle of this song? I can picture Tony Allen in the back singing while Shane's talking.  Maybe a little harmony with OJ [...]

Batten down the hatches, folks.  We're in for one wild ride.  Now, stop reading this and go back to work so you can provide for your family, pay your bills, and maybe have some cash left over to buy a six-pack of cheap beer and a burger this holiday weekend.  Let the multi-millionaires and billionaires [...]

Danny Ainge took the same approach with Jeff Green that I did with every assignment ever in college. Waiting until practically the last minute, the C's announced that they have officially made a qualifying offer to Jeff Green.  Here's the email: The Boston Celtics announced today that they have extended a qualifying offer to forward [...]

The second round of the madness continues today and while the NBA is likely to lockout its players when the clock strikes midnight, there will be plenty of Cinderellas left in this tournament after that.  Today we take a trip back to the playoffs against the Knicks as well as another look at one of [...]

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. After meeting twice a week for most of the month, this is the only session scheduled this week. The two sides could continue bargaining past the deadline, [...]

Brian Scalabrine was in town last night.  Not for a Larry Bird-type tribute… but to try his hand at TV.  He's already signed on to do color commentary for CSNNE's broadcasts of WNBA games.  But he also tried his hand at a studio show: Mohegan Sun Sports Tonight.  Here's a little video montage.  One other [...]

Yesterday marked the beginning of the second round matchups in the GreenLight Madness tournament.  Once again, the top seeded Ray Allen Bomb to Beat New York in Game 1 destroyed its competition.  In this instance, it was a dunk and collection of blocks from Kevin Garnett during Game 1 against Miami.  Today, one of the [...]

I don't know what "high on the list" means, exactly.  But the Knicks are interested in making the move nonetheless.  The issue for New York, of course, is that Lawrence Frank is still under contract and they'd need the Celtics' permission to talk to him.  And there is no way the Celtics will give the [...]

I had the pleasure last night of attending the Sports Museum's 10th annual Tradition. Larry Bird was one of many legendary Massachusetts athletes [...]
