Born and raised in central Massachusetts, 10 minutes away from Foxborough. Relocated to the Midwest for college and stayed there since I got my dream job of making video games. Still love to follow our hometown boys from afar with an assortment of high-def satellite packages, internet streaming, and interacting with other fans on websites. Hockey nut (both playing and watching), exercise freak, heavy metal fan and musician, and avid follower of national and world politics.
All time favorite Pat aside from Brady is Ben Coates. All time favorite Bruins are Neely and Oates, and Varitek has my Sox loyalties!

NFL videos have posted a 5 minute "highlights" clip of the Dolphins/Patriots game from this past weekend. Listeners can hear Bill's demeanor throughout the game, and the coaching he gives individual players on the sideline.

Bruins inquire about Forsberg?
Over on ESPN.com, Pierre LeBrun's NHL blog cited that a number of GMs inquired with Forsberg's agent Don Baizley about the availability of the 36-year-old forward.
http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/blog/index?entryID=4642932&name=lebrun_pierre
"I've had some discussions with Don Baizley on him and we had people scouting him last week," Chiarelli told ESPN.com, confirming his interest in Forsberg. "It's something that we certainly would look at exploring."

Chad and Bill greeting each other and goofing off a bit prior to their 2009 pre-season matchup. A warmer side of Bill not often shown by the networks.

Posanski: "Is Eric Mangini the worst coaching hire ever?"
Posting this on a hometown board is too easy, but I can't resist. Joe Posanski has a column up on SI.com about whether or not our "beloved" ex-Patriots' coordinator Mangini is the worst hire the Browns could have made.
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/joe_posnanski/09/29/mangini/index.html?bcnn=yes
I cannot stand what Eric Mangini has done to the Browns, the team of my childhood. I cannot stand the lack of respect he has shown for the team's history, the Mickey Mouse game he plays with quarterbacks, the amazing knack he has for getting his players to not play hard for him or the stupid fines he hands out like he's Principal Vernon from "The Breakfast Club."

Savard expected to play in Game 7 vs. Carolina
According to ESPN.com, Marc Savard is probable for Game 7 of the Bruins/Hurricanes series this Thursday night.
From source: http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/playoffs/2009/news?id=4162348
"Coach Claude Julien said afterward that Savard is fine and it was his decision to send Savard back to the locker room. Boston led 4-1 when Savard was hurt."
Glad to see this. It looked like one of those unfortunate hockey collisions where legs get tangled up, and hopefully it was just a bad charley horse.

John Clayton praises Patriots' 2009 draft
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/draft09/columns/story?columnist=clayton_john&id=4102721
John Clayton has posted his "10 things we learned from Day 2 of the 2009 NFL draft" writeup on ESPN.com. In it, he has high praise for the Patriots' ability to look to the future and build strength for upcoming draft years.
Key quotes:
- "Although the New England Patriots lost executive Scott Pioli, coach Bill Belichick still runs one of the most efficient drafts in football."
- "To be honest, I thought the Patriots won the day."
- Even after the Patriots' trade of Hobbs, they remain overloaded at cornerback with Shawn Springs, Leigh Bodden, Terrence Wheatley, Jonathan Wilhite and second-round choice Darius Butler.

Lucic facing suspension
http://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/hnicplayoff/2009/04/bruins_could_be_without_lucic.html
According to this site (and several others), Lucic's penalty against Maxim Lapierre at the end of Game 2 vs. the Canadiens was changed from a game misconduct to a match penalty, which triggers an automatic suspension until the commissioner rules on the action.
From my viewpoint, certainly not the best of outcomes for the Bruins. After the Habs got away suspension-free for their Game 1 cheap shots (Lapierre going after Kessel after a goal, Kostopoulos swinging an elbow at Hunwick in the closing seconds), there seems to be some injustice to it all, but it's the rule. I'm sorry that we'll miss his physical presence if he is indeed suspended, but we still have guys like Stuart and Kobasew who are really stepping up the gritty play this series.

Panthers deny Peppers trade rumors
From ESPN.com: http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3988198
Apparently the Carolina Panthers have gone on record saying Peppers trade talks have not yet occurred with the Patriots or any other NFL team. Because Peppers has not yet signed his one-year franchise tender or gotten an official offer from another team, the Panthers are technically prohibited from shopping him by the rules of the existing collective bargaining agreement.
Peppers himself (with his agent) is allowed to negotiate with other teams, but Carolina may not do so.
