Congrats to the Jays. I still had more fun watching Bird and McHale back in the day though. Really enjoyed how the game was played. First game I saw live was at the old "Gahden" back in '86 at the age of 13. Talk about a loud and rabid crowd lol. The crowds now are not nearly as loud but times are different. That team was amazing to watch though!

I loved watching Bruins & Celtics games there - the smog or smoke Im not sure I could handle now

People all around me smoking while drinking a beer would definitely blow peoples minds

We would buy McDonald’s food and bring it right in which was definitely going on in mid 80’s

the era was crazy

I loved Mad Men and was like 1 in 1960 but I remember a lot about it and so bang on how people were so much different than today

My spot was Penalty Box Lounge- duct tape on seats and never ever start shit you might end up at Boston Sand & Gravel like Billy Batts in Goodfellas

Yeah it was a different environment. As a teen I never minded the smoke....I was just excited to be there. I remember the penalty box as well........old school!

The Penalty Box was where Sully's patrons went when they wanted to go slumming.

I was an Iron Horse regular since it was in Boston Garden - Sully’s occasionally but after Penalty Box or Fours

On Saturday games afternoon we’d go over to Clarke’s in Fanuel Hall. This is bar Neely apparently knocked out a hammered Byers one Friday night - wasn’t there but that’s the story

Ran into Cam and Byers a few times at Daisy's. A hammered Byers was a common sight in those days.

I'm not surprised. I have been at bars when Byers was there after his playing days. He could be a mean drunk and actually threatened me when I went up to the bar to order a couple of drinks. Have no idea why as I did not even see him there or even spoke to him. Apparently that section of the bar was his that night. People just gave me a look letting me know he was blitzed and to give him a wide berth.

Conversely, I met him a couple of separate times while he was sober and he was incredibly nice. Drinking can bring out the worst in the best of us. I am guessing Cam had a great reason for knocking him out that night though.

I loved Daisy Buchanen’s but was so mobbed you couldn’t move - my HS friend worked there and told me of all the athletes and famous folks to go in there - Butch Hobson late 70’s was in a league by himself when it came to women (and probably no coincidence he was the nicest guy)

I would have been like 12 years older. I would have f***ing dominated.

Just drove 4 hours to Central NL to be with my father in law for Sunday. Wearing championshop t-shirt & hat from 2008. Larry jersey, Bill socks & 7uice shorts . Let's get this over tonight !!!

 

[BostonBob]

LFG!! I am so ready

Oh - is there a game tonight ????

 

[KOZ37]

Celtics were getting 1.5 earlier today, they are now favored by 1.5. I wonder if they expect Posting is to play, or maybe all the money is coming in on Boston. I tend to make my wagers in game though to get the odds I want. I will see if the Celtics go down early and can get better odds.

Jrue Holiday, is a man of faith, first. He is a terrific basketball player second. He is playing for Joe Mazzulla, another man of faith and they have befriended each other.

We want a win. They already have one.

I have been saying all season and during the playoffs that Jrue was the best pickup for the Celtics. He was my game MVP many times.

Now I know why.

I am amid some major thunderstorms with forecasts that the evening will have some significantly dangerous thunderstorms ahead.
I hope I don't lose power. Watching live is always better for me than a DVR replay.
