Goodbye coward…

Well I would much rather him in a body bag…but he’s a wealth of information given the right….influence. My gut is telling me his motivation was stirred up by his dead brother…but who knows at this point. Either way, I’m so proud of our entire

To do my part in helping the Richard family of Dorchester I will be ruffling off my TD Garden suite for the first home playoff game with all proceeds benefitting their family fund. You and thirteen guests will enjoy the first Boston Bruins home playoff game of the 2013 Stanley Cup playoffs in my personal suite. In addition all guests will receive a post game meet and greet with me.

Net proceeds from this raffle will benefit the Richard Family Fund setup in memory of Martin Richard, an 8 year old boy from Dorchester, MA who tragically passed in the events of the Boston Marathon.

In 8 years…

In 8 years…

There is something special about my section of the neighborhood. Just like Martin, the Ashmont/Adams area is the place I grew up in…just two blocks from where Martin played with his friends just a couple of days ago. I’m not going to go at length 

For Martin…

For Martin…

I’m sad to learn tonight that the 8 year old killed at the marathon today was a boy named Martin from Dorchester. My heart is so heavy right now. If their is anything I can do on any level for Martin’s family, someone please reach 

Cowards…

Cowards…

You can never let your guard down…not for a second. I was very fortunate today…my daughter was at the finish line sitting inside a restaurant when the bombs detonated. The walls shielded her..but she said the blast rattled the place pretty bad. I would be a shell of myself if something happened to her. She told me that a lot of people got hurt. One man apparently had the clothes torn from his body from the blast. My daughter described him as burnt and bloodied up badly.

Whoever these cowards are that targeted the innocent hopefully will pay the ultimate price..death. Our hearts go out to the injured and their families.

You know you’re a Bostonian when find this woman’s voice comforting. I don’t know why it put a smile on my face….I guess it just kind of reminds me of home. Part of me wanted to see her start wacking these 2 with a wooden

Notice Us…

Notice Us…

In case you missed it last night on WERS 88.9. My man Gio Dee premiered his latest track “Notice Us” off his Fashionably Late album which drops Sunday 3/31 on iTunes. I was lucky enough to get a live rendition of this at the Morrissey Dunks a while back. The track features 2 additional Boston boys Cam Meekins and Nick Gray. As promised, the track has a swagger that lends itself to a late night summer drive through Dot. Or just swaying in the corner of a club with your favorite girl. The trio work incredible together…enjoy!
