Call me and in great. But it missed the picnic table. Missed the dual. On the seats I missed the wind holing between the batting gauges. I -- latest card tricks and funny jokes and little notes I miss spring -- I'm -- do well --
We didn't sit in the picnic table for elect the last five days etc. huddled in a trailer without space heaters in the -- on talk about an act it wasn't well. That what happens when a moment when Russia was in and I have one word answer Kol -- just its discs so coldly at. -- In -- you get -- decided on the view of yes I do wider than before you out of -- low grade. A race I speak to edit Shia Islam must demand that the bed last night's big deal that would are you nostalgic. I left Sarasota. Saturday. At mum nine and it was fifty. Eight degrees idol and this Indians Boston at 1 o'clock in it was 59 degrees.
I I told people that all -- it's just like this just down there I'm not -- it's wasn't storming of all time it's just like this in the fifties. And in -- shows some metallic everybody plans it's -- well advance some people. Planet last minute some people don't maybe they live in Atlanta and they they go for weekend -- and not going main businesses hurt you can Joaquin. Almost any restaurant in Newton new and go to the park -- mean at the park coming people we see a couple hundred may -- maybe if businesses wave weighed down and it's because. And it's all all all Al Gore's fault it's all it's all the fault of -- county quarry -- and global cooling and quiet now I would like to plot his eyeballs I with a pickled pork I -- to blame someone for this. He and -- the fish died. Where environmentalists on this the fish of diarrhea. And unfortunate killer welled -- none of us who lives on the golf course on this and EU literally saw on the float to the surface had to rake them out.
Of the -- dominate the fish yummy like buried them somewhere they couldn't. They couldn't live through this winter what's nice is that it -- stinky and all spoiled still holding a true friend Syria and the elegant good news the alligators don't know just to write the most yeah it move but enough -- in the little hands we're back here where it's warmed you know yeah out back in New England X more I got a question for. Who had. The worst Sunday yesterday. Clay Buchholz coming up -- around and around them care is Marc Savard that's a -- valued -- Roethlisberger. James Cameron. You or re -- oh I'm sorry Ray Allen didn't have a bad Sunday I'm sorry might still losing most -- you can you can gloat all you want.
That that game was the best evidence yet the second best evidence yet. That this team is completely incapable law even I might I might be leaning towards the Wii is where they can that they might be bounced in the first round in not the second round but that team has about as much chance. Winning the title as the wizards that team is hopeless sitting in any drop -- sedating them in a panic. I've been defending him for years and you against your blistering attacks. Danny panic dropped the ball and anti. Why these two why is no -- in on this team what to --
Was a big -- to the solid slightly Boston Celtics last night a given this Ray Allen was island -- showed up. And he won the game for them but the point is not good enough to win. Forget the title went to two rounds. Need to stick with guns and the -- the first round because that team knows.
Mean they know they don't have what it and pray because you think he'll -- dad and turned his back on and slammed the phone down on the other general manager that would -- made this team better wouldn't know army corps on Bob.
Was available Kevin Martin was available guys were available. And he and he decided to ride it out with this team because you insisted it was good enough to win a title you'll insisted that he they were better off of -- and another -- a lot of the better off. That was embarrassing last that I was actually hoping. The garden crowd would boo because they deserve to be blue Michelob they deserve I mean who -- almost lose to help the world there was Andre block watch this guy watches just. Happened his way with Kevin Garnett. Who losers who used just me you know as a legislator in the end anyway. It's on guys I mean I'm not I wouldn't boo him personally -- he's trying. He's just hurt and old and doesn't have and and hopeless out there it is uncomfortable. -- it was floating throughout the game ended there were does Tommy died and so this is a mess it's a disjointed mess it was a mess. Last night and I mean. It would it is so deceiving that the pulled that out of ice repeat ports is clapping like uncomfortable and I -- did you stay -- turn it off just -- that the fascinating that to -- was. -- that that was a signature game that was an embarrassing performance on their home court against the team that nobody's. And they couldn't convert them I'm in the couldn't play in the couldn't stop them not but I'll shoot some guy named Blatche had his way with the Boswell and.
Still have to take it back just like you had to take the Ray Allen is dead and buried in an ancient artifact should be shipped off to some. Out of a Washington DC museum was keeping gates and -- I think. You've got to take it back win the playoffs roll around.
A -- us. Well I hope at some some good -- meant for Kevin Garnett the rubble on that -- because he is dragon at. And against a good team against any of the top three teams have dominated them. They've they've struggled against top three teams even on the good Asia. Last night they almost lost they -- a lot of trouble when he took the Charlotte right nobody's his team that sold out at the deadly don't trust -- point they don't care they're not involve the bush that the but it hasn't been pushed. -- Over this team even with with peers curtain and Garnett are a little bit gas. But and -- uncomfortable. He's going to be distributed or just imagine a -- candidate gave credit because he acquired Michael Finley. Moment in on the news one more all over the hill aging shell of his former self star. It took what is -- grounded out.
Does it Regina that they don't have Jerry repeated have to mean athletic and lags on legs yeah -- And ready for you Al Thornton health -- is abuse of terror against them to have a chance David to stop -- an amateur Ronald -- I mean. Didn't under rewards for first Robert -- to know the three seed. That's gonna fluctuate like I -- if -- win a couple of series in the playoffs just like the Ray Allen thing derailment is dead and -- you won't say I was wrong -- I'm wrong now it doesn't make up there in the house. Tomorrow on -- What they stuck right now I don't know who -- records it lost at home to New Jersey they almost lost to watch that would you -- them being involved and engaged in playing their best basketball against the wizards and the nets. In February and march or against Atlanta and Orlando or whomever else they run into in the playoffs -- the dark magic about -- talked up the tabs about engaging those teams not getting in the united and I you know what what would you say the average age of their starting five -- versus the Boston starting five. You want Kevin Garnett Paul Pierce and Ray Allen out there Boston their ass for about 45 minutes a night. Yeah well no doubt you can do that if you're younger team you can do you want to gain momentum you can do -- trying to. -- don't leave new people -- the system if you're trying to work on things you can do that if -- coaches crazy like van Gundy you think doc feels compelled to stick his foot on the accelerator and drive these guys that's a mixed metaphor like a team of you know. Iditarod sled dogs to the finish line here no -- does that. They will be exhausted and worn out and I have no yeah yeah.
Is very frustrated right now and me as hopefully we'll get this week as he published comments. Public companies very frustrated it is not x.s and knows. It is this mindset and it was an interesting. Who wrote it was it's -- that is explanation for the loss in game seven Orlando last you have to say that they'll do they'll lose that went the next round that we just and again it's bank -- so. You know almost seems like have that mentality and how they think they know of state. Battled to the wire and you know the goal of the playoffs they're gonna get spanked in round two anyway. I don't think it's a conscious thing uses -- on card subconscious thing whatever. But they know they don't have a chance and that's how they play.
I disagree -- I disagree that a 100% I don't think out of the a look at this and say we have no chance against anybody I even think he might have an opportunity you know if things break right to be -- I happen to disagree with -- but. But I think that this team you know barring any more severe injuries between now and then. Have a very good chance to turn it on 222. -- drop on their experience and there and they are and what they wanna be. He's got a about it think about what you're talking about. Kevin Garnett Paul Pierce Ray Allen and anybody else who wanna put into the mix. It took to get excited about my in the New Jersey Nets to the Washington Wizards they are these the dog days this is like classical. Like the Red Sox play well we got the Baltimore Orioles and we're you know we're up nine games -- he's staring --
I'm either half came up one land so the company -- third place this kind of mad I was. So -- mail it in against New Jersey and Washington it kind of matters right now. And I would take pride would cut out for some than at home last eleven games at home. And then out through -- with a gonna lose some more. I mean I'm not saying. That they weren't there on valiant gallant warriors and all that that just don't have what it takes. Ainge should have recognized that at the deadline and assumptions and so does what what do Dallas to what else.
How points mattered to you went went up a couple weeks ago or ten days ago. No loss to New Jersey they were dead and bear that won four games in a row things a beauty absolutely not but they won four games -- they're getting it done going into the.
Last night was embarrassing or 500 -- his Christmas and that it has threatened. Does that you know what are there one -- seven against -- you have confidence Orlando those two teams one of whom will that will play in the in the second round. Org Cleveland got W and I wanna be comfortable that will be just. -- for their rice is a realist. Of who had the worst Sunday and Roth has that Kevin Garnett on the list oversell zero hoops -- fourth -- Marc Savard and and and -- just had their way with him. Mark Silva had a pretty bad for you also don't get worse everybody else -- wearing a.
Bruins went and dropped a you know I defer to you on all things hockey if you are the hockey expert I don't claim to be. Does it seem to you that of any other team had their best player or arguably their best player knocked. Cold -- unconscious on the -- that somebody wearing a black and gold sweater mud up to somebody the Pittsburgh sweater and said. We're not put up with this. -- is part of our -- I don't ever try to civilize the National Hockey League here make it more like the European game more like the Olympics. But are you kidding me Marc Savard gets killed on the --
I think he should -- and it I didn't see I didn't really have good looking. And only then. You don't win fights about -- disgraceful. Well that is a disgrace that they why it's more important the -- as a bug in the win the game yes I am and I'll say two things it and see it. And and close said you know -- to win the game that's all -- and give but at this point. Wouldn't it be better in the long term in the big picture to settle at school -- You don't I thought to be honest with -- touch and I -- to. I thought it was automatic in the NHL that someone takes that kind of vicious cheap shot against one of your best players and puts a lot of action probably for the rest of.
A year article that you'd take action and I was automatically okay you know who's gonna get them out in baseball. They they settle the score and pages and running training as a great leader after -- it was a silly little and -- baseball -- Baseball player baseball would not let the opponent you know now a much or. Football wouldn't let them get away with this but in hockey. In the Boston Bruins turned the other -- and and in spite of clots and tried to win the game what's the bigger impact here now. The Bruins reputation as being a soft anything but the big bad Bruins hockey team. I think news is it's a laughingstock of the national -- the rest of the teams look at them and think about missing the Bruins. Can kill anyone other players -- nobody is the -- do anything -- soft team and you -- does it creates dissension in the locker room it has to mean you're you're Savard and and when you get your wits about to duplicate okay who -- who killed cook -- who got my back -- that nobody nobody nobody nobody. Did was right there written ten days into deployment. And Dow -- news is we'll get -- then savvy sassy where we gets back it is it is much. Which is more embarrassing and accessed -- Bruins and Celtics. In Boston old question here also -- Yeah kick is older and -- it's. I saw this happening I -- the fact that the Celtics you know I think it is right now. But when they're winning recently. He's written you know of course but this time there will be -- it's nice Mark Martin and other major injury between now in the playoffs. -- We don't only just right. The Bruins fans you know we're gonna defend the NC two point. Play in the play -- Two points from -- Couldn't board. Let the emotions get the best of them. But what you think today they'll look and each other and Everett the practice and we we're wimps we just. We panic when they see the replay when they finally seek re -- you see the replay between periods and ultimately yeah it would. You -- there's no defense they they publish additional on the big board yet they did to. -- that you know they did -- aren't gonna all the gold zones in public officials in big board even the Bruins. Even in the Bruins would. Riled up that the case Sean thought well that Angeles.
Al Thornton said after the game it was more about trying to get a goal for savvy there at the end so -- that he's happy. Yet they're trying to get a gold -- technical there was a concern -- really quiet on the bench said Sean Orton about the immediate reaction to coax yet. You can go one of two ways on something like that happens and I think everybody get a real good job. Of keeping it together on the bench the guys did an unbelievable job. Trying to get the next goal for savvy and guys were really professional. On the bench. That's a -- to talk -- professional isn't the key word I had in mind.
Good -- savvy this year and -- that the eternal and it feels like he's down the Bruins Sidney Crosby. -- I play it pretty much on what Bosnia as their point guy that sit Niekro as the regular program would run tool very -- So if someone to run -- Sidney Crosby and he. Someone on holds for him -- and that monitors an ideal that would be and some lunatics run with the group who would do that we know Lucic won't know knowing. Brooks is an assortment should have is eternal values are you broke his -- and a slight. Movement toward Internet viewers every guy isn't it don't you guys -- where it was sort of on the bench because yet another goal savvy. Pop pop pop pop up outlets at all waited for savvy. For details. They know more and more in here yet though so the fact you watched every minute of the celtics' game and know the box scores by heart I'm assuming that neither one of view. Paid any amount of attention to the hospital I didn't loan he's -- war are I was watching the Celtics during all these. Art animation. Let's have attribute shorts short to industrial temperature to be sure to mention The Three Stooges which is what those shorts. Yeah they are a completely column. I it was easy doable it's -- crap when I -- yeah 67790850. Oscar talk straight ahead 88852508. If you can text -- and you already are at 85850. That's the AT&T. Text that you include better three -- areas.
