    Former SoSH Greats in the media (Simmons and SeanBerry Megathread)

    No idea. Our high school was small (about 500 kids total, around 100 in my senior class), but we weren't in the same clique. My (admittedly fuzzy because this was 27+ years ago) memories of him were that he was a smart guy. Witty. Sarcastic. A lot of his humor seemed to stem from hot takes and...

    Lucas Giolito has an elbow issue.

    I didn't want Mitchell Miller on the Bruins and I don't want Trevor Bauer on the Red Sox. I don't want pieces of shit playing on the teams I root for. Simple as that.

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    This, right here, is the correct answer. Not just regarding this specific TV series, but the entire sports media complex. Outside of actual reporting, who cares what Volin, CHB, Bedard, et al. have to say about anything? I don't know. Maybe it's just me. But this push to turn nearly every...

    The Michael McCorkle "Mac" Jones Thread

    I'd say the most telling part of the entire QB scenario is that Zappe played more competitive football than Mac with the same roster and the OC who was supposed to fix Mac.

    The Michael McCorkle "Mac" Jones Thread

    Was going to say the same thing. I also like how he decided talking to a Jets staff member about it was the appropriate thing to do. As though complaining to people outside the organization isn’t part of what landed him on Bill’s shit list in the first place. Obviously a smart kid and leader...

    Mayo: Season 1

    That was a grand slam press conference. I especially liked Mayo's answer about diversity, not just race but disability as well. As someone with a permanent physical disability since birth, it was nice to hear.

    Red Sox sign Masataka Yoshida

    This is what I (and I assume other people) see when it comes to Xitter embeds: So, some kind of summary/quote provided alongside it is very appreciated. Because while I can click on the link and see the tweet, it's nice to know if it actually has information or if it's a joke/shitpost.

    Red Sox sign Masataka Yoshida

    Depending on one's browser ad block settings, Xitter embeds may not show at all. Always best to quote them as well.

    8/18 Beat the MFY

    Just gotta say, I really, really hate how Apple does their production. Everything is too dark/artificial looking, and the frame rate is atrocious. It's an obvious attempt to make live sports look like a film/prestige TV, and it simply doesn't work.

    Dan Shaughnessy: Taking a dump in your mouth one column at a time

    Serious question: why does anyone care about what this guy thinks? He’s not smart, not insightful, not even interesting. He’s just a bitter old man, and the less attention/clicks he gets, the sooner he disappears.

    NFL: News and transactions

    I don’t know if he has the right temperament. From what I hear, he tends to pop off after taking a few licks….

    Dan Shaughnessy: Taking a dump in your mouth one column at a time

    The Boston area has been exceptionally blessed in the sports department for the last 20 or so years. So, I find it strange that not only does Shaughnessy continue to have a job spewing discontent for all those that would listen, but that there's apparently enough of an audience for him and...

    Points record

    It was really noticeable last night. The west coast swing featured four hard played games plus a ton of travel, as well as a personnel shakeup. I fully expected more of what we saw in Calgary - a team that was on fumes but still gutting it out. Instead, they got better as the game went on...

    Best Bruin trade deadline acquisition -- all-time.

    Eh? Oates and Juneau were on the team together, and Juneau was traded several years before Oates.

    Can you post Carlo's card as a comparison? Thanks!

    Bruins sign Mitchell Miller to an ELC - now "parting ways"

    I expected nothing, got nothing, yet somehow I'm still disappointed

    11/25 - Bruins host the Hurricanes

    Great win. Here's hoping Ullmark is okay

    Bruins sign Mitchell Miller to an ELC - now "parting ways"

    This, right here, is the key. Miller will never change and grow if he stays in the same environment, surrounded by people who pretty clearly (as evidenced by the various tweets earlier in this thread) condone, if not urge, such reprehensible behavior. There's so much more to the world than our...
