    2023 PGA Tour

    The scene at Riviera: Woods continues his heroic comeback, carding 1-under for the tournament. Coming off the 18th green, the crowd in L.A. gives Tiger a fine round of applause. And anyone who has grown up a sports fan in Boston cannot possibly understand how that crowd did not rise for a...

    1/2 - Pens/Bruins at Fenway

    First time I saw Bucyk play was on the Uke line, w/Stasiuk & Horvath. Happy we're both still around.

    The Summit Series: Remembering Game One

    Game 1 of the Summit Series took place in the Montreal Forum on September 2, 1972. It's the most important sports event I've ever attended.

    The Eckian terminology -- the cheese and salad and pairs of shoes -- was off-putting at first. But once I focused on what he was saying instead of how he was saying it, he was a joy. Now we're left with a broadcast booth (and a team) that's an embarrassment.

    Pats Re-sign Cam Newton to a 1-Year Deal

    It did work out well, in a way. We got the #1 draft pick, which became a very good QB. (Unfortunately, Jim Plunkett's best years were with Oakland, but that's a different story.)

    2020 Pats: Broncos Game Postponed Until Next Sunday (10/18)

    Duct tape can cover one leak, or two leaks, or maybe even three or four. But at some point, you figure out that duct tape doesn't fix everything. If the NFL has any hope of the season continuing, they need to get into a bubble.
