    BC Hoops 2023-2024

    We need a thread title update, or a new thread for this season. Not a lot of enthusiasm when it took 7 games and a "tournament" win before anybody was moved to bump the thread. As I said back in the April, its really discouraging to start from scratch again after everybody jumped into the...

    Thankful

    Since you saw Ted in person, do you think the Red Seat is legit? Cuz I'd like to believe it's not exaggerated, but, that's a Looong way . . . Thanks to all for the insightful, entertaining, and educational posts

    Boston’s taxing pursuit of Juan Soto

    Soto grew up a Red Sox fan because he idolized Pedro and Papi. They need to be at the next meeting. The chances of getting him are still really slim, but if the Sox are serious then bring in the guns

    2024 Boston College Football

    How many missed extra points have come back to haunt this team in the last 10 years? They have to be leading the country in that stat

    2024 Boston College Football

    Not loving the play calling to say the least. But its a challenge to call good plays when your QB can't throw.

    2024 Boston College Football

    I had a Troy Stradford flashback on that Turbo Richard TD run. Similar build and a similar cut to the outside. I don't know if he can catch it like Troy but I love the way he runs

    2024 SoSH Golf

    I'm due for a new Driver. I've been using a Titleist 915D3 for several years. As age goes up distance goes down and I have to think I can regain a little of that with some newer technology. Has anybody tried the Titleist GT that just came out? Would love to hear some feedback. Or...

    What makes a NBA coach great?

    I agree that those factors are needed to be a great coach, but the question is more along the lines of whether guys like Red, Phil Jackson, Popovich, and Kerr can automatically be considered great coaches because of winning multiple titles, or were they just the beneficiaries of having great...

    Jayson Tatum's Rise to the Top

    I started a new thread to discuss what makes a great NBA coach so that this thread can get back to JT

    What makes a NBA coach great?

    There's been a lot of talk about Steve Kerr's coaching job in the Olympics, and his record in the NBA. Which brings up the question of whether his record is a result of him being a great coach or just the beneficiary of riding Steph's coattails. This is blasphemy to most Celtics fans but...

    Jayson Tatum's Rise to the Top

    This is blasphemy to most Celtics fans but I totally agree with this with regard to Red, and coaches in general. He was clearly a great GM but it's hard to know how good a coach he really was when you have that much talent. His successor won with zero coaching experience. A bad coach can...

    Jayson Tatum's Rise to the Top

    I've seen many posts about JT's sub-par performance in the Olympics, including comments that he looked disinterested at times. Maybe I missed it, but I haven't seen anyone mention the fact that his second child was born recently. I haven't been able to find an exact date, but likely at some...

    2024 PGA Tour

    One Major, Olympic Gold, and The Players Championship plus the other wins. A lot of people consider the players the 5th Major, and it is the biggest payout aside from the FedEx bonus. I think Scotty wins POTY unless Xander wins the FedEx final.

    I'm usually not one who cares what guys are wearing, but those American outfits today are awful. The pants look like softball uniforms

    2025 Ryder Cup: Destination Long Island

    The US team talent at least equals Europe and they might have more depth, but of course that hasn't mattered in the past because "team" play is such a big factor. Which is where the captain comes in. I didn't see Keegan coming at all. It will be interesting to see what he brings to the...

    Is Durability Underrated?

    Al definitely sets a good example in terms of conditioning, but at this point in his career he requires a ton of load management to stay effective. Durability = endurance + avoiding injury. Al doesnt have the endurance anymore due to his age. KP doesn't need as much rest and has a higher...

    Would like to hear your reasoning behind both of those statements.

    What will be the next number retired by the Celtics?

    I agree with those who have said the Celtics are far too generous with their criteria for retiring numbers. You should be a HOFer before even being considered, plus also spending the majority of your career with the team, and definitely should be contributions as a player only. Retired numbers...

    Who is the greatest living balllplayer?

    I would be interested to know what "transcended the sport" means. I assume you are just excluding him because of the steroids, because Bonds did many, many things that were off the charts. Also, it's a little odd to exclude Bonds because he never won anything and then include Griffey and...
