Tuesday, June 10th, 2008I have to admit, I’ve really started to get into this Celtics-Lakers series. If only basketball was like this all season long, I’d probably be a devout fan.
Which reminds me of the kid my dad and I met in Disney World back in December of ‘06. He was clad in a Paul Pierce jersey [...]
I’m a loud-mouthed, obnoxious fan
Monday, June 2nd, 2008This whole Celtics-Lakers NBA Finals thingamajig is pretty cool. I mean, just as I am quickly approaching my 29th birthday (otherwise known as the last birthday I shall ever celebrate, ever), I was in search of a way to recapture my childhood. Ta da! Enter a new sports championship series featuring old rivals in which [...]
One year later
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008 Lost in all the hoopla of Spygate, and “Run-it-up-gate”, and touchdown records, and undefeated season talk, and Super Bowl losing last season was the tragic death of Marquise Hill, a 24-year-old defensive end for the Patriots.
Probably one the most poignant moments of my year so far was meeting Jarvis Green back in January and [...]
Drawing comparisons
Sunday, May 25th, 2008I’ve already discussed the fact that I’ve been watching some basketball lately but what I haven’t mentioned are some of the things I’ve noticed since rediscovering the sport.
For example, one thing that has stuck out in my mind while watching the Celtics is Kevin Garnett. KG. My eyes can’t really tell you what makes one [...]
Jon Lester is great… an end to the CBA is not
Tuesday, May 20th, 2008What a feel-good story. Boy beats cancer. Boy throws no-hitter at Fenway Park. For a moment, it made me happy to be alive. But only for a moment because then I remembered that the NFL owners meet today and could end the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
And this is why I think I live in a world [...]
Angela’s trip down Celtics-Memory Lane
Sunday, May 18th, 2008With the Boston Celtics gearing up for Game Seven against the Cleveland Cavaliers tonight, it may surprise you to know that I plan on watching it. It may also surprise you to know that when I was growing up, the Celtics were almost as big in my household as the Patriots. I think much of [...]
Matt Walsh is a douche, Part Deux
Tuesday, May 13th, 2008Thanks goodness it’s lunchtime and I have some time to process the “new” revelations after the Matt Walsh - Roger Goodell meeting.
What we’ve learned:
1. Matt Walsh didn’t tape the Rams’ SB walk-through, nor does he know of anyone taping. (Haters will say that someone did, just not Matt Walsh OR Roger Goodell is covering [...]

I'm Angela - I'm staring down the barrel of my 30s (gah) working as a production editor
(office bitch) for a small newspaper. I'm consumed by my endless devotion to
the New England Patriots and have recenty taken up knitting to keep busy until September. Oh yeah, and I have a really whacky boyfriend to keep me amused.
