Good Friday at Florian…

Boston is a land of many traditions, every neighborhood in every corner of the the city has them and some date back ages. In Dorchester, one of those traditions goes back 54 years and is THE right of passage for those kids participating in the 

The Final Word on Daily Fantasy…

Hey I’m guilty, I love Draft Kings. It’s fun to bet on….err ummm….play fantasy sports online. I’m not exactly a sports geek that’s been living fantasy sports for years. Life is busy, and while I love an excuse to hang out with the boys, being f*cking awesome is 

GFY Roger Goodell…

F*ck Roger Goodell and the horse he rode in on. This dildo never suited up for an NFL game in his life and it shows. Any commish should have to walk a mile in the shoes of the men that make up the foundation of the organization. Should the commissioner of the Boston Police department gain his title because he stayed at a Holiday Inn last night? Or because he has years of experience?

He’s consistently mishandled every crisis that has come his way.

I hope we win again next year so Brady can hit him over the head with the f*cking trophy.

As you were…

MVP…

I just wanted to send a shout out to fellow Dot Rat Kevin Hayes for capturing the Beanpot MVP with 2 goals during the tourney. Fietelberg from Barstool Sports wrote that this tip by Pat Brown was possibly the filthiest he’s seen. I would have to

Just wanted to give a quick shout out to the teams playing in the Dorchester Dodge Ball tourney today! Nothing like nailing someone with a ringer to start off my favorite month! Photo by John O’Toole  

Dot is proud!

Bill Traft and Marc Anthony Muniz did a fantastic job representing Dorchester last night.

First up in the amateur matches was Muniz who from the opening bell started working a stiff left jab that seemed to stop his opponent dead in his tracks every time he tried closing the distance. Both fighters displayed long lean physiques but Muniz seemed to use it more to his advantage. Muniz proved to be the effective aggressor the entire fight and took the decision.

Muniz fought like a Dot Rat and the boys down at the Dorchester Boxing Club must be very proud this morning! Keep your eyes on this kid!

When the music came on and the lights dimmed a bit….I gotta admit…seeing Bill Traft on the big screen at the Garden shot our adrenaline through the roof. The entire crowd was yelling for Bill. When the first round bell was struck it was very obvious that Bill had better form than his opponent Joe Powers. Because of his transition from MMA, Powers often stood square with Traft instead of using a traditional boxing stance. Bill’s kinetics were flawless and because of that he was able to overwhelm Powers throughout the course of the fight with lightning fast hands. Traft worked a very sneaky left hook that seemed to come from left field and Powers got caught with it repeatedly. The crowd was very much  into the fight and even started a Bill-y chant. Aside from a barrage from Powers late in the match that seemed to come out of frustration, Traft dominated and took the decision.

Bill Traft fought like a Dot Rat…

His family, the BPD and TNT Boxing are all very proud today!

Dorchester has seen it’s fair share of promising fighters over the years. Many of whom never made it to the big stage for a host of different reasons. Some may have traveled the wrong path or decided they couldn’t weather the financial hardship involved with

Hey Houston….how did that work out for you? You all deserved the beating you got  solely for climbing all over Paul Revere like a bunch of Red Coats. I know that’s how Texans roll and you enjoy climbing over walls and sh*t but this is what happens when you disrespect a Patriot.

America‘s fattest city should not be acting like they personally won the Superbowl in the greatest sports city EVER!
