Super Terrific Happy Hour!

I'm honestly so pumped for all the true Bruins fans out there.  I'm not one, but can absolutely understand how they feel.  I remember how it felt when the Sox won in '04, making all the crap that fans had put up with for so long a distant memory.  Thankfully, for me, it didn't have to go seven games, but it didn't really matter.  I watched the game with my Dad and even though they were up 3-0 in the ninth, he started to lose it when the Cardinals got one guy on in the ninth.  He didn't want any craziness, just an end to the game and an end to the "1918" chants.  A majority of Bruins fans either weren't alive the last time the Bruins won the cup, were very young, or lived through it and deserve another chance to see it and live through the excitement.

So, for all the true Bruins fans out there, enjoy it, embrace it, and I really hope they bring the cup back to Boston for you.

Nowitzki besiegt den Ghetto-Basketball

Die Zeit der individuell begabten, aber schwer sozialisierbaren Ghetto-Basketballer ist vorbei. Am Ende dieser Ära hat Dirk Nowitzki einen nicht unerheblichen Anteil.

Nowitzki defeated the Ghetto Basketball

The era of individually talented but difficult sozialisierbaren ghetto basketball is over. At the end of this era Dirk Nowitzki has a significant share.

Well, they may want to rethink most of the article.  If your country was most well known for its ethnic cleansing, wouldn't you go out of your way to avoid comments like this?  Like, totally overcompensate.  I mean I think LeBron is a stooge, but this may be a bit excessive (read: super terrificly racist).

"Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks will be included in an illustrious list of winners and NBA most valuable player "of the Final Series (Most Valuable Player) of the past 25 years. He is the first white MVP since Larry Bird."

"That street ball, threaten Rap and ghetto chic and the commercial success of the sport, has recognized the league itself years ago. At that time the players were still dressed with gold chains and hung in the gangsta look: baseball caps, schlabberige pants, long T-shirts and sneakers were open standard.

The wide - white in the majority - aware American public takes this shoddy outfit but with street gangs and the mainly black rappers scene here. The organization wants the NBA, the basketball bothered as a family sports marketing for all. Therefore, a dress code was enforced. The players must now appear in a suit and tie the game."

Woof.

Carpe diem, DeShawn Stevenson!

From the tats, to the multiple times he has called out Bron Bron, you've got to love DeShawn Stevenson.  Well, since the Mavs won the NBA Championship, DeShawn has clearly been having a good time.  Well, he was having a good time until about 10:30 PM last night when he was arrested for public intoxication.  The police received a call that there was a drunk man walking around, and later found Stevenson who ALLEGEDLY didn't really know where he was.  If being a millionaire and winning a championship is good for only one thing, it should be the chance to get off of being arrested for public intoxication.  He wasn't driving, didn't seem to be bothering anyone, couldn't the PoPo just have taken him home and told him to sleep it off?  

I don't care, I'll roll with this dude any day.  FREE DESHAWN STEVENSON!  FREE DESHAWN STEVENSON!

Bruins Fan Songs

A few fan-created Bruins tunes to get you fired up.  Some are better than others, but we'll try to get a slow burn going today.

Public Service Announcement - GET TO THE BARS EARLY!

Apparently, the city of Boston is not only putting the kibosh on a Bruins viewing party at The Garden tonight, but also putting in some last minute rules for the bars tonight.  Bars have to black out their windows so no one watches from the streets and they can't let anyone into the bar after the second period.  

So, go out early, drink often, don't riot, and get the MOJO GOING!

Humpday Holla-back

The other day at work we were talking about the NKOTBSB concert at Fenway over the weekend and how a ton of people went to it.  Then we transitioned to the Donnie Wahlberg, then Mark Wahlberg, then obviously to his career in music as Marky Mark.  It took us a few minutes to remember the title of his jam, "Good Vibrations," so we obviously had to watch the video.  Wow.  Damn, they knew how to make a video in 1991.

As you can see, its about four and a half minutes of choreographed dance, and a shirtless Marky Mark alternating between working out and banging chicks.  So, this video was probably a pretty accurate portrayal of his life in the early 90s.  Plus, its good to have a little local talent on a day our home town Bruins play game seven for the cup.
