I'd be getting back. Why thank you very much that's that's pretty funny grandy a max we appreciate that very much. I gotta be honestly I didn't hear it because by that point I was done. McCain sorry checked out. Would you when you're up 31 in the second happen and all your starters or sit on the bench -- and joke at an on -- shoes. I've seen enough.
Now I hadn't checked out let's say what the the whole time you really did ask they would unlike the fans in Philadelphia that you know if you don't have to go. If you're at a game. You gotta train to catch I understand you got a -- to catch or you've got to ride your ride is -- ago when you're not. And it's is the it's a matter of catching arrive from somebody else paying when you didn't expect to pay. Gore with the ride when he's ready go you go -- guy got adult but is watching on TV. Have anywhere else to go. -- thought it was it was.
Awful what the awful read -- to watch as they just as a sporting event for us sports fan watching TV. It was awful the Bruins game was awful for other reasons obviously one team dominating one team can't score. I -- I know -- party expressed this concern and I'll and I'll repeat it here. I mean I've but the the folks at Comcast are gonna find the thirteen -- numbers -- end -- getting hurt by this I don't because I don't think people are hanging around and it when -- when -- up by thirty in the second half.
Exhibit a 59. Zip patriots titans got don't want -- Could not -- I don't know. If a bomb only person thinks this way I doubt it. Always like close games. Like it to be close I don't want it to be. Not what I want to look I wanted to be 9595. With thirty seconds ago not always. Enjoy a blowout. Joint 2345. Blowout tomorrow matter.
Why I just tell you there and and look I say this with admiration obviously not with criticism. We thought going into the season that Danny Ainge had done a great job building a very strong and deep basketball team. That was what we thought Glen Davis was going to be plan on needs not parole while here. They get Scalabrine back now making the bench depth the crater. I mean they're finding minutes for J. R. Giddens who they don't even dated may -- to pick up the option on because he's not going to be here after this year. I mean Marquis Daniels has been huge. This I I just don't see how many teams could beat this team at it if this group stays together for the whole year help is always the key issue I don't know how you beat these guys.
let me pause for a second and ask you this. Is something going on -- now. Because right now you sound like Ken Rosenthal on the train station no Vietnam I'm now minor minor okay is that the headphones or visit the -- at -- wondered if it was just me and and then nobody let me end nobody let me see the memo. On sometimes my voices a little high I have to admit -- into -- about Ed does it sounds like you know you know Rosenthal without the without the fire without the fire engines and background. Without the EMT's. Face somebody down I think we need to an -- out of his headphones or if it's just that well either way it will fix.
Let's try this out here. Exactly we put this on Twitter. Michael's changing headphone Jack. Film at eleven. It was Jack Albany go -- man he is in there. On I had John Kennedy's in a week -- of the very top on nearly enough on our Arizona Eric hello. He's a low man in there. I tell -- John Kennedy's atop the engineering food chain in there and out now this might be a disturbing visuals -- review but get your mind out of the gutter. -- and I walked into the other room. Just a few minutes ago. Eric was on the floor. On his back is he still if she didn't know what you -- I -- to the other army was on his backers that. Nice to see Erica that I walked out of the room. He just deadly -- and have to stay there but it is abdic and that was on his back all all. At 10 o'clock in the morning you know let's just shows how hard working he he has. Now you and now he's got to act or or -- out short notice that lack the it's out there or something very interesting under the table one the other. But either way he's he's kitten on a look I I I think the Celtics it and I know we half joked about this. A while ago and then and even setting the joking as they're gonna lose obviously some games but not the 182 and now. And and -- they'll lose some game where at the end of the night -- gonna be all upset he's gonna say you know I I can't believe we played that way. It'll happen I and I know it'll happen. I don't know when. They play Orlando here couple weeks maybe. Well and it's pretty good team we we've sitters in common -- and I don't know where he's got a -- all -- I'm not not because I'm not going any further than than this month. I don't see how they lose more than a game this month and always will it always happens. They're not gonna win I don't think at eight tonight even though it's the second game as many nights and they got to travel at all let's stop there in Minnesota tonight I don't think it's tonight. Got to get back to backs coming up this weekend but our home on Friday against Phoenix there in New Jersey on Saturday. That the second game of the back to back is when you always look at as the as the real possibility.
What they start last year. When he seventy. It started 27 two last year can this be a better on apple equipment. Okay to start 27 to wear wear it one of the losses come from. At Indiana yup got their butts handed to them I mean they got crushed. By the Marquis Daniels led Indiana -- every -- I -- now okay a I don't think anybody saw that -- an -- Indiana weekends Saturday and there wasn't really an explanation for. It has gotten mediums docket so. I wouldn't be surprised if they lose what would be surprised that they loss tonight wouldn't shock me they lost the Minnesota Timberwolves who were not very good.
It if you -- because of the way they played last night it would shock me. When Shelden Williams plays the exact same number of minutes as Kevin Garnett and you win by 31. When when Marquis Daniels plays more minutes and Kevin Garnett and you win by 31 yeah it would shock me I lost and I understand dale.
And those those aboriginal losses. Come every now and then sometimes they come at it in and this is the time port to come beginning of the season a bit doc says. We're playing great defense. We can be better. I don't like execution certain areas you know coaches always look at things that way you think that way. I'm short -- and asked to keep them they are not what I'm sure but I'm sure he legitimately see some things that he doesn't like. I wouldn't be surprised -- Minnesota maybe that -- would be surprised if they lost the game in the next three report. Where there'll wagon yeah I'm an error is so good I'm with they're very good. I was the other one last year and that was -- home -- that they they lost at home to Denver and that's there's no -- at Denver went to the conference finals very good --
They're just they're so deep they're so well balanced. I I mean when help rich from Malden listening. You know when Lester Hudson is -- in threes like enough to -- net I gotta give to rich. Well Greg and he yeah. While the rich knows yet. -- Rajon Rondo decided to fight your dealer or our is that because they're about to traders -- the matter you gotta gotta take care of business that other teams we're not trade for Rondo without a contract and that's let it is -- the Celtics item. Sign and trade that I got a real -- probably one it is. Don't -- and I think we're guessing that he wouldn't it cut but looked at their terrific that there is good as any team in the NBA right now. Interestingly enough -- you get the other written. Winter sports franchise. That is really struggling right I mean. ActiveX shout outs. I know they're missing some key people I don't -- teach and Marc Savard are key offensive -- for the Bruins I understand that. Detroit's more bead up and the Bruins are they had six guys out of the lineup last night. And 1 to nothing I -- they added they can't score on the power play I think their power play is not dead last in the NHL.
What what you what you use you say Detroit were beat up -- the Bruins but Detroit is a better team absolutely Carol LI absolute so but my point is they had six guys out of -- lineup and one. Pretty easily. But that probably have more depth. Then -- the -- half -- I wouldn't doubt that at all I agree with you -- probably tells them that of the Bruins the Marc Savard is that there and you don't have a you don't have a playmaker. In remarks partisan great playmaker the take him out of the -- you take -- out of the mix. Now am I gonna have some real problems you don't need to playmaker. Boy needs playmaker. Ten shots on goal -- We're talking proper frank JK let's talk about track and -- now.
Eight in school are not the -- it doesn't have a play maker like Marc Savard. But he had ten shots on goal took a huge hit at one point last in the corner and bounced right back up. You know and and and that there's almost that psychological barrier to get over you know we had a shoulder all rebuilt everything. He played great last night on a team still stinks. Even when he's playing Britain and you know I.
Are but this is like a practice to him he played 23 minutes and fifty seconds at the Q was he was a minus one here and shot in its first game no training camp -- It's gonna have a great season. He's got a bad guys got to take those leafs. On his back. He's got to carry that make them what we're gonna carry them through like the eleventh --
and -- about where they'll be actually you you might be incredibly close to the truth 92 break when we come back. We gotta talk about Pedro and the World Series tonight at Yankee Stadium. The new Yankee stadium of course would get to your phone calls as well a little while it's dale -- Sports Radio WEE.
