It's a Great Time to be a New England Sports Fan

Though I was unable to watch the game, I was pleased to hear that the Celtics beat the Raptors in their pre-season battle royale in Rome. The game really means nothing, but apparently, KG was beastin' it. He finished with 19 points and 17 rebounds, behind Pierce's 21 points. KG had a pretty nasty reverse throw-down early in the game, and Paul is indeed still the Truth. Ray Allen was apparently pretty shaky, but he should be fine by the beginning of the regular season. The supporting cast was decent, but Eddie House had a great game -- he could be our 6th man, if need be.

Sox swept the Angels. Pitching is superb. Offense is heating up. Everything is working right now -- now, we just need to see who wins the Yankees-Indians series... I expect the Yankees to at least win game 4, if not game 5 too.

Patriots are 5-0, crushing their (albeit weak) opponents to a pulp week-after-week. Their latest victim was the Cleveland Browns, losing 34-17 in a game that the Patriots had complete control of. The Patriots have not scored under 34 points this season. They have not given up more than 17 points this season. So, things are working on all cylinders right now for the Pats. In their game yesterday, Benjamin Watson was awesome, Sammy Morris continued to shine, and Stallworth finally appeared to have somewhat of a break out game.

The Bruins are- hold on, nobody really cares.

So yeah, I'm happy to be a New England sports fan right now!
