Judgement Day…
I’m thinking of the Donohue family this morning. I know they have waited very long time for this day. I can only imagine the things they have wanted to say and I’m sure they have all played it out a million times in their heads. …

The Pipes of Boston…
For me, nothing invokes a sense of pride and makes me think of our history more than the sounds of bag pipes on Saint Patty’s day. The pipes immediately make me think of all those who came before me and the struggles they endured. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XmIw3v5s80 …

Sign Wes Welker……..what do you mean he’s Satan Manning’s new go to receiver? That f*cking midget!
Who was Welker before the Patriots? Would he have the stature and respect he has within the NFL if he stayed in Miami? Would he have the numbers both statistically and financially if it weren’t for people like Kraft, Belichick and ultimately Brady? So this is how Wes Welker shows loyalty and integrity? You know what? Denver and Horseface Killah can have him. Next season I hope Mayo knocks the rest of his hair off in the middle of the field.

This St Patty’s day I will stare down at the crown on my Claddagh ring and toast to loyalty. It’s a value we cherish…we’re taught this at a very young age here in Boston. It’s not bought….it’s instilled. That loyalty has played a crucial role in the success of so many Irish and millions of others that came to America for a better life. I don’t believe loyalty is passé.
Brady understands loyalty….Wes being so “undervalued” does not.
Forget about it!!!
It’s Prince Spaghetti day here in Boston! Over the years I have grown to love Italian culture….and of course the amazing food. Irish and Italians have forged a unique relationship over the generations here in Boston. We certainly poke fun at each other from time …
Friggin Italians…
Those Italian cab drivers have a way with the ladies don’t they? We all know Italian guys love the Irish chicks….but does Bobby really have to trash Irish dudes while running his game on female passengers? You know what they say about big feet right? …
Double Dutch and The Ave…
Racism exists on both sides of Dot Ave. Things have become better over the years but tensions do flare from time to time. The questions being raised by the recent Ups and Downs stabbings sparked my interest in writing about this. And I will try …
Triple Decker Christmas…
Christmas in Dorchester was always a special time for me. I have tons of great memories from over the years. Mom used to take us boys down to Bradlees on Morrissey Blvd to scope out the scene and find out what toys we wanted. She would …
