Is it just me.....

Is it just me or is anyone else happy to see 08’ gone. Obviously my biggest reasons are politically and financially motivated, but it just wasn’t that great of a year. The only thing that I can remember about this past year was the Celtics winning the Championship. Don’t get me wrong…..there were some great graduation parties, some great weekends in Maine, some great times...

This really sucks…the team goes 11-5 without the best quarterback in the history of football, literally loses a key player each week and still doesn’t make the playoffs? Ouch. I don’t want to be the guy crying about how it’s unfair that an 8-8 team in the AFC west made the playoffs and the Pat’s didn’t because when that’s happened to other teams,...

I like this...a lot →

Sox are close to signing Brad Penny to a one year, five million deal. Penny, if healthy, could be a horse for this team. I know he was hurt last year, but he’s a sinker baller pitcher in the Derek Lowe mold and could be a pretty sick number 4 or 5 starter. God, I can’t wait for the baseball season to begin…it’ll be nice to have a team to root for that can actually make...

Happy XMAS Eve

I am off to my most favorite place on earth….not Disney, not some tropical paradise, not even my actual favorite place on earth (west newfield, me)…..I am off to Catholic Mass. Catholic Mass in the wonderful state of CT. I love the holidays! Matt

Happy Holidays!

I didn’t have time to post this on the blog previously for Wake Up With Brian, but below is what I replied to him via email. “Compelling points. I’m not sure who you are arguing with but krugmans point is that too many bright people have been doing work that creates no value but apparently destroys a lot. Not people who create and build iphones and bmw. There is no...

Merry Christmas - Happy Hanukkah!!!

I’m not sure what the next few days are going to look like for me, I’ll be out of the state for the holidays and dealing with a few family things so chances are good I won’t have time to be on here too much. So, I’d like to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas/Happy Hanukkah. I’m off from work starting today at 5 and won’t be back until January 5th, so am...

What legal standing would that guy have?

Nobody forced him to sell his tickets at above face value to some random stranger. And they didn’t enter into any contract saying “if you decide you’re going to get drunk and tackle a player to ‘give them a hug’ I have the right to sue you for the value of my lost tickets.” Basically, the season ticket holder took a chance by selling his tickets online to...

Legal action

I wonder if the season ticket holder has any legal action he can take on this guy….. My guess is no, but if there is a chance he can sue…my guess is that he would. Matt

Dec 23rd

SCREW. THAT.

Listen - the season ticket holder has nobody to blame but himself for losing those tickets. If he really valued them he wouldn’t put them up for sale on StubHub to begin with! It’s not like the Patriots Organization has been quiet about the fact that if you give away your tickets to some idiot you’ll still be held accountable for that idiot’s actions or anything. This is...

Dec 23rd

Update.....

Todd Kublis bought his tickets on Stub Hub. Therefore, he does not lose his tickets…..the guy that sold them loses his tickets!!! This is the story of the holidays in my opinion. Do you know how long it must have taken this guy to “earn” those seats. I mean first row at Gillete takes years and years, upgrade after upgrade. Now he sells his tickets to a game in December that he...

Congrats on third place Matt!!!

your money will be coming, in the form of pennies. If you do the math, that comes out to be 12,500 pennies, weighing roughly 70 pounds or so. Good luck! Tim

Douche of the day

Todd Kobus told the Herald yesterday, “My intent was to just give him a big hug.” This guy is 31, married, and a father who has been in the National Guard for 10 years and served in Iraq from 2004 to 2005. Instead of being a douche, just come out and say you were hamered and I am sorry. Don’t make up lies. You got hammered and you probably had to in order to sit through that game in that...

You know what really grinds my gears?

when people don’t look ahead when they’re walking. So I’m walking down the hall at work today and a guy in front of me is walking along reading a paper he’s holding. I notice there’s a guy standing at the end of the hall. I’m thinking to myself, “this guy is going to walk right into him”, and what happens? They guy continues to read the paper and bumps into the standing guy and goes “sorry”. Is...

Glass half full

Sure I was one click away from winning the whole fantasy football league……rhodes over westbrook has haunted me for 7 straight days….but it was a great season, and I will take 3rd place and 125 bucks. Is it 1K….of course not, but its something. Tim, I would like my money in cash please (10’s and 5’s are preferable). Matt

An open letter to the City of Malden

Dear City of Malden, I would first like to take this opportunity to congratulate you on your recent designation as “Best City in America to Raise a Child.” As a fellow Maldenonian, I think we all take pride on what our city has been able to accomplish over the past 10 years. It has certainly been a fantastic turnaround. I would also like to thank you for doing such a fantastic job...
