If 6 was 9.....

Well there you have it. The 6th Super Bowl Championship in 17 years. NOBODY expected that the Patriots would be able to keep the L.A. Rams to 3 points total. They averaged over 32 pts. per game this year. The Red Sox also beat L.A. with their 9th Championship. 3 months in between championship parades. An embarrassment of riches for sure. I'll tell you what....everybody is talking about the 7th Championship. Like Brady says "My favorite Championship is the next one". 

The Drive for 5 complete...Roger that! Can't stop the train to 6.

The best QB, The best Coach, and the best franchise owner in the NFL by far....

.....and then there were 4.

Just in case anybody didn't know one MemphisMOJO took 3rd in the Seniors NLHE event at the 45th WSOP. 280K for 3 days work. Weaved his way through almost 4,500 entrants. Wow is all I can say at the moment.

Go Bruins. As i've said before...we are lucky to have such great sports teams in Boston. The Bruins always make spring fun...the RedSox are really happy about that...you know what I mean?

Blogger Tournament? Online Poker? What is this?

PokerMeister  posted something I never thought I would see again. A free blogger type tourney with Bitcoin prizes....hmmmmm. I wonder what this could do to my poker-free life? Here is the site that will host the Blogger freeroll

So let's see if we can get some BitCoin at Seals with Clubs and create a new economy!

Pay it Forward

Help a friend in need and Pay it FORWARD.

We haven't seen or heard from auntie Josie for a long time....she's up to...well something good.

Patriots will be back in the AFC Championship next year

Their crazy off season and current injury riddled season caught up to them in a big way this week. Now we have Denver vs. Seattle. Good luck to both...at least it will be a good SoupBowl. I'm looking forward to laying a few prop bets and hitting on the SB squares I purchase. I guess the nickname of the SB will be the 'Pot Bowl' or the 'Stupor Bowl' or something like that.
This is the collective thought around this area of the NE right now. Enjoy : https://www.youtube.com/user/Fitzy01821/

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

Hopefully I'll be able to do some Poker Tournaments during the Holidays this year....there hasn't been a whole lot of Poker to speak of but I'm going to try to change that....

Happy Thanksgiving to all

 

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

What a birthday present!!! World Series Champs!!!

What can I say...it's been quite a year. The RedSox have bucked the odds and went worst to first. They won the World Series on my birthday as well.....there is nothing left to say.

RedSox

I guess this is the fourth time the RedSox have gone against the St. Louis Cardinals in the World Series. What a year...what a comeback...what a story. There is nothing left to say but.......

Grace Potter & The Nocturnals-The Allman Brothers Band Sept. 6th Comcast Center

One hell of a show. Grace Potter is fantastic. The Allman Brothers were fantastic (G. Allman didn't fare so well and kept leaving the stage during the show...but he's getting old) but they didn't play their usual encore. It was strange having the montage of photographs in the background without the band playing as usual. As I said Greg Allman left the stage a bunch of times during the show and he looked...well...awful. He sung only two songs and stood and played the guitar for 'Melissa'...but his legs looked like denim covered bones. Something strange was going on. Nevertheless....Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks stole the show. They jammed quite a bit with Grace Potter and the Nocturnals so I was a bit stunned at the end...but still very happy overall. Here are some photos from my crappy iPhone 3GS.

Black Crowes at BoA Pavilion

Great show. I haven't seen them in years. I decided last minute to get tickets....except I bought tickets for the wrong night...Aug. 6th which is also a Tuesday. My buddy and I went to the box office and picked up a couple of tickets...way better for the July 30th show. 30 rows better. It was surreal to be told that the tickets I had originally bought were for next Tuesday. I'm glad it went down that way though. I took a bunch of photos with my crappy iPhone 3GS which has most definitely reached the end of its usefulness. Enjoy if you can make out the grainy pictures.
