New Orleans City Hall Closes Early For Saints Patriots Game

According to NBCSports.com:

On Monday, with the Saints' biggest game in three seasons on deck, the city essentially made the holiday official. The City Hall and other city offices located on Poydras St. near the Superdome will close early at 3 P.M.

There are going to be some unhappy people in New Orleans tomorrow when they find out their welfare checks weren’t mailed out because City Hall closed early today...and their delusions of an undefeated season are washed away at the hands of the Patriots. haha

Its probably for the better because around 13-0, Mercury Morris would probably start showing up on tv ranting about how it doesn’t count as an undefeated season unless you win the Super Bowl. Man, do I hate that guy and his maniacal rants.

Belichick Gets “Choked Up” Talking About The Superdome

In an article that sounds like something out of the Twilight Zone, the Boston Herald is reporting that Bill Belichick got “choked up” while talking to his team about tonight’s clash with the Saints at the Superdome, the place of the Patriots first Super Bowl Championship.

According to the Boston Herald, Belichick “went on and on about what the Superdome means to the franchise.”

Then proceeded to “hold up the [Super Bowl] ring, spit-shined it in front of the team, and joyously recalled, ‘This place will always mean a lot to me and the team.’”

WHAT? Bill Belichick got choked up? The only time that man has ever shown emotion was during Tedy Bruschis retirement press conference. And youre telling me that he got emotional over a regular season game?

He wants this one badly!

PETA Wants University of Georgia To Use Robot Dog As Mascot

According to the Athens-Banner Herald:

PETA has asked the University of Georgia to quit using a live bulldog as the school's athletic mascot. PETA says using live bulldogs perpetuates dog health problems. Instead, PETA suggests, the Bulldogs could use a robot dog or costumed mascot to represent the university's football and other sports teams.

OK. So should we eat robot turkeys for Thanksgiving too? Where does it end?

Danny Ainge Wants Iverson

According to the Boston Herald:

We have had internal discussions about (Iverson), but a decision like this has to be unanimous, and it wasn’t. –Danny Ainge

I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall during those discussions.

Remember, Ainge tried to trade for Iverson in 2006 before Iverson was traded to the Denver Nuggets.

Not One Yankees Player Shows Up To World Series Film Premiere

According to the New York Times, not one Yankee player attended the Yankees World Series Film Premier on Monday:

Besides Girardi and Cashman, Michael Kay, John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman, all Yankee announcers, and Tim Busfield, an actor who described himself as a Yankee fan, also walked the red carpet. No players attended the event.

WOW Tim Busfield!!! How exciting. You don’t know Tim? He played the angry guy who wanted Kevin Costner to sell his farm in Field Of Dreams.

This is just another reason why the Yankees suck.

When the Red Sox had their World Series Film Premiere after the 2004 World Series, it was a big event. There were players, coaches, owners, club employees, etc.

Yankees fans paid $30 to sit in a theatre with Joe Girardi, Brian Cashman, Michael Kay, John Sterling, Suzyn Waldman, Tim Busfield and watch a dvd that will be for sale in the discount bin at Barnes and Noble for $9.99 in a few months.

HAHA. Suckers.

Savard To Play Tonight, Bruins FINALLY at Full Throttle

Don’t let this go unnoticed, the Bruins are only two points out of first place in the Northeast division.

They managed to stay afloat despite playing the past month without their two best players, Milan Lucic and Marc Savard.

Well, tonight Marc Savard is back. Lucic came back two games ago (and the Bruins won both games).

So, its on like Donkey Kong. Sit back and enjoy.

Red Sox Looking To Deal Mike Lowell

Not only are the Red Sox actively shopping Mike Lowell, they are willing to pay half of his $12 million salary for 2010 for another team to take him.

Kinda makes you wonder where the other shoe will fall.

A team doesn’t ship off a player and pay HALF of his salary unless there is good reason to do so.

This could be a precursor to the long rumored Adrian Gonzalez deal.

The monkey wrench in the machine may be the fact that, according to NESN.com, Mike Lowell has a no-trade clause that he could use to block a deal.

Another Reason To Hate Josh McDaniels: Tells Chargers "we own you guys" then loses 32-3

As if you needed another reason to hate the arrogant prick Josh McDaniels.

According to Chargers players Shawne Merriman and Stephen Cooper, Josh McDaniels came up to them during warmups and said "We own you guys."

The Chargers ended up beating the Broncos. Final score 32-3.

When Josh McDaniels started his coaching career 6 – 0 and people were quick to anoint him the next Bill Belichick.

There were articles and blogs touting him as the first Belichick disciple to out-master the master.

Well, after the 6 – 0 start McDaniels proceeded to lose four in a row. The latest being the 32-2 romp by the Chargers.

And I just have one question: would Bill Belichick EVER go up to an player on the opposing team and taunt them?

Any blogger who praised Josh McDaniels as the savior in Denver after that 6 - 0 start outta be ashamed of themselves right now.

Josh McDaniels is a disgrace. I saw this arrogance and immaturity from day one. You should have too.

ITS OFFICIAL: "Felger and Massarotti" Ratings Better Than "The Big Show’"

According to Boston.com: The afternoon drive program “Felger and Massarotti’’ finished fourth in the 18-49 male demographic, edging the long-entrenched “The Big Show,’’ which was sixth.

Radio ratings are always difficult to interpret because they are broken down to demographics, but one thing is clear. 98.5 The Sports Hubs “Felger and Massarotti” beat WEEIs “The Big Show” in the afternoon drive time slot in October.

And just a few months ago, Glenn Ordway was king of it all.

A couple of his castaways (Michael Felger and Tony Massarotti) were about to embark on a quest that so many before them had failed at.

Dethrone Glenn Ordway in the afternoon.

Felger tried once before, on 890AM ESPN Radio, and failed. As did Sean McDonough, Eddie Andleman and Ryen Russillo with 1510 The Zone.

But each of those stations failed. They had good, talented sports personalities but they didn’t have the signal. Listeners of 890 AM and 1510AM would hear more static than voices.

Then along came 98.5 The Sports Hub and its clear-as-day signal. The clear signal coupled with the fact that 98.5 The Sports Hub was the anchor station of Patriots and Bruins broadcasts put them on the map.

They have subpar on air personalities (I mean Zolack and Tanguay? Cmon) but their strong signal along with the fact that Boston sports radio listeners want an alternative to the constant shouting and incoherent blabber (see Fred Smerlas and his cotton ball mouth) over at WEEI just seemed to click.

It was nice run for Glenn Ordway but he has now suffered the same fate as the Godfather before him, Eddie Andleman.

Enjoy the ride into the sunset Glenn. The buffets open at 11am over there...but get there early. The hear lines are pretty long.

no longer the consigliere of Boston sports radio

RED SOX QUICK HITS

Red Sox Announce Ticket Price Increase Day After Devastating Patriots Loss
You gotta hand it to the Sox. They are a PR machine. They made their announcement regardging raising ticket prices the day after Bill Belichick made the controversial 4th and 2.

The Red Sox knew that Belichick talk would dominate the news, sports radio and blogoshpere and that no one would be talking about the ticket price increase.

Genuis and slimey at the same time.



Jacoby Ellsbury To Change Jersey Number From 46 to 2
According to Fenwaywest.com and Overthemonster.com anyway.

Sorry Carl Everett, Damian Jackson, Willie Harris and Jerry Remy. This solidifies it. Your number will never be retired.



Red Sox Get Dissed By MLB
The Red Sox put in a request to host the All-Star game in 2012, which is Fenway Parks 100 year anniversary, but got passed over for Kansas Citys Kauffman Stadium.

WHAAAAAAAT? Well, I guess that’s what happens when the commissioner of baseball is a former owner of a small market team.

Oh, you didn’t know? Bud Selig used to own the Milwaukee Brewers. He continued to own them while he was commissioner. Technically, he sold the team to his daughter at the time. Who eventually sold the team in 2004.

The point is, when you have a commissioner who used to be an owner of a small market team, he is going to side with the small market teams 9 out of 10 times.

Tom Brady In GQ Magazine Ironing? WTF

Ok, why do they keep doing this. A few months ago, Details magazine published pictures of Tom Brady posing in a very homo erotic way.

Now GQ magazine publishes pictures of him looking like a domestic househusband??? WTF.

Tom Brady is the envy of every alpha male. He is an NFL quarterback, a Superbowl MVP, married to a supermodel...yet magazines continue to publish pictures of him that seem to be targeted to the gay community.

In Joe Namaths hey day, magazines published non-football pics of him, but most of the pics involved Namath either showing off his chest hair or with women lusting over him.

In 20 years, some little kid will do a google image search of Tom Brady and see a pic of him ironing a shirt.

Meanwhile kids today do a google image search of Joe Namath and see this:

ID LIKE TO PUNCH THIS FACE: Ron Borges

In his Patriots Report Card today, Ron Borges said this about Bill Belichick:

His fourth-quarter game management was dreadful, burning his last two timeouts for no understandable reason. And whatever happened to those in-game adjustments he used to make before the league found his film collection of NFL’s Greatest Hand Signals?

This from a man who was suspended for cheating. Oh you don’t remember? Ron Borges was suspended by the Boston Globe back in 2007 for plagiarism. It was a two month unpaid suspension.

He copied someone elses work.

While Belichick simply misinterpreted the NFL rules regarding using video equipment on the sidelines, Ron Borges cheated.

Remember that asshole in class who would lean over and copy your answers on the test that you studied your ass off for? Well that kid is Ron Borges.

When the Globe fired Borges, the Herald gave him a job. Well, Id like to punch his face.

Dont Kid Yourself, Jeremy Hermida Is The Red Sox New Left Fielder

Lets put two and two together.

1. The Sox havent signed Jason Bay

2. The Sox have made a trade for Jeremy Hermida, a cheap outfielder who has yet to produce at the big leage level but has a tremendous upside.

Now read the following statements.

Theo Epstein said: "If we can't [sign Jason Bay], we have to get creative in left field. It could mean a big-money guy; it could mean a couple of lesser investments"

Acording to Sean McAdam: In 2012, a group of young players in the lower reaches of the system should be ready to make an impact at the major league level. The trick for the Red Sox, it would seem, is to find ways to remain playoff contenders until then, while not tying themselves down to long-term contracts which could block the matriculation of the team's better homegrown prospects.

Why is it that Im the only person in Red Sox Nation who thinks Jeremy Hermida is the replacement for Jason Bay? Isnt it obvious?

Dont be surprised to see Jeremy Hermida in left field next season. And dont be surprised to see the Red Sox win the Wild Card again and get bounced in the first round.

The Red Sox are the new Atlanta Braves. They WILL be a perennial playoffs team, but dont expect them to get out of the first round too often.

Belichick Made The Right Call, Colts Made Big Play

It wasn’t a bonehead play. It wasn’t a gamble. It wasn’t a Grady Little moment. It was the right call at the right time and the Colts made a big play.

As Belichick said, “give the Colts credit. They made the play.”

Statistically speaking, Belichick made the right call. Need proof? Read this: advancedNFLstats.com. It was the right call.

Anyone who calls Belichicks decision a “gaffe” (Dan Shaughnessy) doesn’t understand football and is just looking to stir things up.

Statistically speaking, a team in the Patriots situation gets the first down 60% of the time. It was a tough decision to make but it was the right call.

The bottom line is that championship caliber teams go for it in that situation. Conversely championship caliber teams make the STOP in that situation…and that’s exactly what the Colts did.

The Colts won the game. Belichick didn’t lose the game. So everyone take a deep breathe and give the Colts credit.

The game came down to one play. And the Colts made the play.

The Red Sox Are Cheap Bastards. Acquire Jeremy Hermida Now Pursuing Hideki Matsui

This is disgusting. The Red Sox are a big market team who make money similar to the Yankees yet they continue to do business like the Kansas City Royals.

Don’t kid yourself. Jeremy Hermida (who will make MUCH less than Jason Bay in 2010) will replace Jason Bay in left field next season.

The Sox scratched Tim Wakefields 4 million-dollar player option and signed him to a two-year deal worth 2.5 million per year because, as Theo Epstein said, "it gives us a little more payroll flexibility than picking up the option."

Now we learn that the Red Sox are considering signing 35-year old Hideki Matsui, who is looking for about 8 million a year and is essentially a DH at this point in his career because his knees are so bad.

Red Sox fans should be asking what the hell is going on? Lord knows Im baffled.

Why are the Red Sox shopping in the discount bin at Building 19? The Sox can afford to pay Jason Bay but they are choosing not to. They have the prospects to make a GOOD offer for Adrian Gonzalez but they have yet to (presumably because prospects are the cheaper option).

The Red Sox should not even be in the Hideki Matsui discussion. And the fact that they are is sickening considering the money they make.

Scott Boras Is a Dick. Says Sox Had Chance To Sign Teixeira, Compares Damon To Jeter

"The Boston Red Sox had a chance to sign Mark Teixeira before the New York Yankees did, because we gave them an offer. That's the best I can do for owners, it really is. The player was earnest in coming there at the time and he presented them with an offer they could have accepted." --Scott Boras

What he neglected to mention was that he gave the Red Sox an earnest offer yet when the Red Sox front office (including John Henry) flew to Texas to seal the deal, Boras continued to negotiate and used the Yankees, Angels, Orioles and Nationals as leverage to ask the Sox for a 10 year 200 million deal.

And today in the NY Post, Scott Boras compared Johnny Damon to Derek Jeter. This man has got to be the most unpopular man in all of baseball...actually in all of sports.

Fans hat agents as it is. Most are greedy, slimy, disloyal and heartless. Scott Boras encompasses all of those qualities ten fold.

DEVASTATING: Billy Wagner May Accept Arbitration

Billy Wagner's agent told the Boston Herald that his client might be open to accepting arbitration if the Red Sox offer it even though, earlier in the season Wagner said "I know they’re going to offer me arbitration, and of course I’m probably going to turn it down.”

Wagner is a Type A free agent and the Red Sox would receive two draft picks if he declined arbitration and signed with another team--most likely a first-round pick and sandwich pick between the first and second round.

If he indeed accepts arbitration this throws a monkey wrench into Theos off season plans. Theo already nickel and dimed Tim Wakefield out of his 4 million dollar option saying "it [signing Wakefield to a two year, 5 million deal) gives us a little more payroll flexibility than picking up the option."

Having to pay Wagner (and not getting the two draft picks) would no doubt be devastating to the Sox.

What made the Wagner trade so enticing for the Sox at the time was the fact that they knew Wagner declining arbitration would net them two draft picks. So the Red Sox essentially traded two players to be named later for Billy Wagner and two draft picks.

Get ready for another disappointing offeason Sox fans.

RUN DUSTIN! RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN! RACHEL MADDOW HAS A MAN CRUSH ON YOU!

That’s right, the second most famous liberal on tv (behind the nauseating Keith Olbermann) has a man crush on Dustin Pedroia.

Rachel Maddow, host of MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show, told the Boston Herald that her and her partner Susan Mikula “both have a soft spot for Dustin Pedroia, but I’d feel embarrassed if he knew. Maybe he wouldn’t like that.”

Gee ya think? If you two were to date and were seen in public, people would think you were brothers.

I don’t think any guy would want to date a woman who could pass as her brother.

Let me put this gently, Rachel Maddow can't compete with the bimbos that chase professional baseball players around.

Maybe if she were to bump into him after he's had a few beers and a few dozen shots it might be worth a college try. Good luck!

Hideki Matsui Has A Massive Porn Collection, Got “Secretly Married," Brought Sketch Of Girlfriend To Press Conference

Lets learn a little more about this years World Series MVP.

He "secretly married" his girlfriend in 2008 and when he had the press conference announcing it, she wasnt present. He instead held up a sketch of her.

Kinda reminds me of the weird kid in school who goes around telling everyone that he has a girlfriend but that she "goes to another school."

It also common knowledge that Matsui has a massive porn collection and trades porn videos with Japanese reporters.

The NY Daily News casually mentioned his porn collection in an article about his wedding in 2008:

According to the NY Daily News:

Matsui, also known back home for his large collection of porn films, said he and his wife have been planning their wedding for a year. He began dating her during the 2006-07 off-season. He said the nuptials took place in New York City at an undisclosed chapel.

Funny how they casually mention the porn collection. I had to read it five times. I thought it was a typo or something to I dug a little deeper and found the following in a 2003 Time Magazine Asian Heroes Issue:

And, of course, he likes to watch his much vaunted porno collection, tapes that he often trades with Japanese reporters. As one Japanese journalist put it, describing Matsui's affinity for such unique Japanese cultural institutions like the no-panties shabu-shabu in Japan, "Matsui is a horny guy. All of us are horny, more or less. But Matsui doesn't attempt to hide the fact."

If I ever told my friends that I secretly got married, proceeded to hold up a sketch of my new wife and revealed my massive porn collection, I dont think Id have friends anymore.

Hideki Matsui had a great series. But you gotta admit, the dudes a flake.

You Can Rent Fenway's Winter Classic Ice For Only $10,000 AN HOUR!!!

Fenway Park will be renting out the Winter Classic Ice Rink for $10,000 an HOUR! No joke.

The NHL is charging FSG (Fenway Sports Group) $16,000 per day that the rink is up, so I guess they have to make money somehow. But $10,000 AN HOUR??? Talk about turning a profit.

According to the Boston Globe:

Sam Kennedy, executive vice president and COO of the Red Sox as well as president of Fenway Sports Group, there has been no shortage of folks lining up to reserve the time.

“I can tell you that the interest [in one-hour rentals] has been overwhelming,’’ said Kennedy. “The price has not been a deterrent whatsoever. But this is geared, really, to our corporate base.”

The Red Sox are an absolute cash cow. With that kind of money coming in, the Red Sox have no excuse for spending under the salary cap next season. No excuse. The Sox should sign top tier free agents to fill all their needs, including an outfielder to replace Jason Bay.

There is no excuse for shopping in the bargain bin for players like John Smoltz, Brad Penny and Rocco Baldelli anymore.

The Red Sox are a big market team making big market money. Its time to start spending like the Yankees do. God knows they have the money.

Bruins Offense Goes From Bad To Worse: David Krejci Diagnosed With H1N1

If you think the Bruins offense has been anemic this season, you aint seen nothin yet. It's going to be a whole lot worse. David Krejci has been diagnosed with the H1N1 virus and has been isolated from the team.

From the associated press:

General manager Peter Chiarelli announced Thursday that the team's medical staff confirmed a diagnosis of H1N1 for the 23-year-old Krejci.

The club said Krejci will be kept away from the team until he has had no symptoms or fever for 24 hours. Chiarelli said the Bruins are taking precautions to try to protect others in the organization from the virus.

Is it time to consider this a forgotten season? Kessel gone. Savard out. Lucic out. Krejci out.

The bright side is that the teams woes are happening in the beginning of the season. Soon enough, Savard will be back, Lucic will be back, Krejci will be healthy and hopefully Chiarelli will pull of a deadline deal.

Sit tight for the next few months though. This team is going to be UGLY.

Bronx "leaders" have proposed naming a bridge after Derek Jeter

How ignorant are New Yorkers? Bronx “leaders” are considering naming a bridge after a man who cheated New York out of millions in taxes.

Have they forgotten already? Derek Jeter cheated New York out of millions in taxes by claiming he was living in Florida (he owns property in Tampa) when he was actually working and living in Manhattan.

Back in 2007, the NY Daily News reported that Derek Jeter claimed he was a Florida resident in order to avoid paying $70,000 a year in real estate taxes on a condo he owned in the Trump World Tower.

Did I mention that the Jeter Bridge will cost $87 million to build. Where are they getting the money? From the tax payers.

Well, the bright side is that if the Yankees lose to the Phillies, Yankees fans will have a preferred bridge to jump off of.

Milan Lucic Says John Erskine of Capitals Was His Toughest Fight, Went To Halloween Party As Harry Potter

According to the Bruins Blog on ESPNBoston.com, Milan Lucic lists his “toughest opponents” as:

2. Raitis Ivanans of L.A. Kings
3. Eric Boulton of the Atlanta Thrashers
4. Chris Neil of the Ottawa Senators

After watching this Lucic vs Erskine fight, I can understand why. Lucic lost this fight. It was one of his rare loses.



In the ESPNBoston Bruins Blog, Lucic went on to say:

We had a team Halloween gathering, social you could say. That wasn't bad, there were some good costumes there. I went as Harry Potter. I had the glasses, the wand, the scarf and the cloak that he wears; that was a lot of fun. The best costume was one guy who showed up as Phil Kessel that was actually really good and really scary.

I don’t know whats more bizarre. Milan Lucic dressing up as Harry Potter or someone dressing up as Phil Kessel. I wonder if the guy dressed up as Phil Kessel was wearing a skirt.

Alex Rodriguez Has Portrait Of Himself Hanging Over His Bed!
