I’ve been resisting blogging about the winter sports teams too much just yet, mostly because it’s too early in the season for the Celtics and Bruins are just mediocre, plus writing about the Celtics and Bruins means it’s probably fucking snowing out so I don’t want to bum myself out. But there was a request so I guess I have to.

Tonight in Philadelphia the Celtics had their way with an overmatched Sixers team, wiping the floor with them to the tune of a 104-75 victory. Meanwhile in Detroit, the Bruins continued their mediocre/shitty play with a 2-0 loss against the Red Wings. The Celts are 5-0 on the young season while the B’s are struggling at 6-7-1.

There’s no question the Celtics have been the class of the East so far this season, and I have to say I am in love with this team. Pierce finished with 21, Sheed had 20 off of the bench, shit even Scal poured in five in his first action of the season. The scary thing is I don’t think we’re even playing close to our potential. There were a couple of ugly turnovers on the offensive side of the ball, and KG and Ray Ray were out of sync all night. And we still won by 31.

As for the Bruins, well they just couldn’t put the fucking puck in the net tonight. Chris Osgood shut them out tonight. Chris Osgood. The guy is like 100 years old. The name of the game for the B’s so far this year is inconsistency, they look good against bad teams but play like shit against the good ones, and occasionally play like shit against the bad ones too. I know they’re battling some injuries to a couple of key guys right now but Claude Julien needs to light a fire under their asses ASAP.
