The Boston Sports Nut


Being from New England, I have closely followed the Boston sports teams throughout my life. They are my life and blood. Yes...I am a Red Sox diehard and grew up in a Red Sox family in Western Mass. Have followed them through thick and thin. I will be providing updates and information on my teams every Wednesday.
CELTICS EEK IT OUT!!!! Lead Eastern Finals 3 games to 2. Once holding a 17 point lead, they hung on for dear life as the Pistons fought their way back. The C's kept their starters in for almost the entire game and seems like they were pretty tired....missing shots, etc. Ray Allen came through big time, scoring a playoff high 29 points. Center Kendrick Perkins picked a great time to have his best game of the year, 18 points and 16 rebounds. Rondo dished out 13 assists. The Big Ticket popped in 33.
BASEBALL NEWS: The Red Sox fell to 1 1/2 games behind the Rays as they continue to struggle on the road. Knuckleballer Tim Wakefield only allowed one run to the Mariners, but Eric Bedard was slightly better, giving up just two hits to the Sox beating them 1-0. The Sox are just not hitting (again). On Tuesday, they fell to the Mariners and our only runs came on Manny's 499th career home run. Dice-K will undergo an MRI with a tired arm and I think that he will go on the DL. Masterson, who has had two sensational starts with the big club, would probably be called up from the Pawsox for a start or two.
Be sure to browse through my blog; The Boston Sports Nut which has daily updates on Red Sox and Celtics along with some fictional tales I have written. You'll enjoy it.
