Nice little feature from John Powers in today's Globe talking about how Boston has the chance to go for four titles this year, considering the Celts and B's are top contenders and the perenial compeitivness of the Pats and Sox.
It reminded be of a convo I had with the vote-rigging Blogfather Jake about a month ago. Over a few frosty brew treats, Jake and I were discussiong which of the four major teams had the best shot to win a title this year. And it's not any of the answers that make it memorable, but just the fact that we were entertaining the idea of such a scenerio shows you just how good things are right now.
The 2004 season was great when the Sox and Pats won it all. But there really hasn't been a time since both the Celts and Bruins competed in the same year since maybe 1986. With the Bruins mammouth series with Montreal set to begin Thursday night at the Garden and the Celts set to tip off Staurday against any one of a number a teams (also, mind you, at the Garden) now is as good as it gets in terms of playoff atmosphere. I don't know about you, but spending my spring nights alternating between Celts and Bs playoff games is possibly the best thing I could ask for; my liver on the other hand, not so much.
In conjunction with that Globe article, they also did a photo shoot. The one at the top of the post was my fav. Here is a short video from the shoot. Pretty sure Ortiz just walked in with that outfit:
Also in anticipation of the Bruins playoff series -- since it is only 2 days away against their most storied of rivals -- here are two sweet commercials for those who haven't seen 'em. How ill the bear?:
Pretty sure the guy in this one is like my uncle:
