    Oh for Christ's Sake.....People complaining about the rights and wrongs of end of season trophies

    Yeah, this. I was an absolutely terrible baseball player but I loved my trophies. They made me feel that despite my obvious athletic inadequacy I was still a valuable part of the team. Somehow I survived into adulthood despite being the recipient of a “participation” trophy. Those...

    Thanks. So I use Garmin connect but I don’t see the temp listed on any of the data screens; it’s on the map display but nowhere else. I probably need to adjust the settings if I want to see it listed.

    The NFL and the National Anthem

    I was living in Carlisle in November 2016, and that story doesn’t surprise me in the least. It’s a weird place. I know we have at least one native here on the board.

    Sorry to hear that; hope you feel better soon. Injuries/illnesses that make running untenable absolutely suck, particularly when you are feeling ready to go.

    Cutting The Cord on Cable/Satellite TV Service?

    Okay quick question: wife is moving to Essex county and we're trying to figure out the cheapest way to get all Sox/Pats games. We have AppleTV which we could use for the MLB package or subscribe to COMCAST with NESN. The bigger concern is the Pats games. What is the best/easiest way to get...

    I took everyone's advice and went out and bought a foam roller today; my left hamstring has been a bit tweaky ever since I pulled it playing softball (!) this fall. Thanks again for the advice. GreenMountain: good luck. You've been killing it recently.
