Tough Week for The Celtics and Their Fans

With the Boston Celtics leading the Eastern Conference and all signs pointing to a successful second half of the NBA season, they made a last minute trade before the deadline that left many players and fans stunned.  Kendrick Perkins, who has played his entire career for the Celtics, has gotten substantially better each season and gives 110% in every minute he plays was traded to to the Oklahoma City Thunder.  Blogs from all over New England were filled with comments from sad, disappointed and even angry fans.  The Celtics locker room wasn't any different with Kevin Garnett quoted as saying ""It's not even about a teammate. It felt like you lost a family member today, tough day."  Being a Celtic player or a fan is about persevering and that is exactly what we need to do to finish the season strong and take home the title.

Kickball: Just Like Elementary School But With Adults And Beer

With the Spring season of kickball less than a month away I wanted to share my passion for this amazing sport.  As a 7 season veteran of the WAKA kickball league and current editor of my league's newsletter, Ghost Man on Third, it is fairly obvious that I love the game.  WAKA stands for the World Adult Kickball Association and they have leagues established all over the world.  The same basic rules of kickball that we all learned as kids still apply but adult kickball is fast-paced, incredibly competitive and best of all drinking is not only acceptable but actually encouraged! If anyone reading this post is mildly athletic and looking for a great way to meet new people and have a good time then I would highly suggest visiting www.kickball.com and signing up for a league near you.

Rumor Has It: Dave Matthews Band To Announce Summer Tour Dates Today

Yet, it is nearly 5pm ET and no dates have been posted which leads to the question of will there even be a summer tour.  Originally, Dave Matthews closed the 2010 tour season in Charlottesville, VA with an epic two-show finale that was supposed to be the final show until 2012.  Hence the reason my friends and I spent a lot of hard earned money and drove 10 hours overnight to go to the shows.  Shortly after the rumors started up that the band would be playing a few festival style tours in 2011, then came the rumor that in addition to the festivals, DMB would also be playing their annual Labor Day weekend show at my favorite venue in the world... The Gorge Amphitheatre in George, WA.  As I sit and wait for an official announcement from the band I can't help but think that I may have gotten my hopes up for nothing.  Please don't let me down Dave.
