- The Bruins lost Game 7 of the playoffs to the Habs
- The Red Sox are on a five game losing streak
- The Celtics lost two in a row to the Hawks, tying the series.
At least the Patriots draft day was interesting--lots of shoring up in the linebacker and cornerback postitions. Jerod Mayo of Tennessee looks particularly interesting as an inside LB. As usual, there were a lot of inter-round and intra-round trades by the Pats, which kept things interesting. The most shocking thing of the day was seeing Bill Belichick in a suit.The Sox were battling 20 straight days of baseball and a killer flu that was ripping through the clubhouse. Pitching by Beckett and Bucholz was impressive over the past two games, but the bats were dead. There's a good chance they'll be rained out tonight, which may work in their favor.
The Celtics? Well, it is tough to know which way that will go. Last night, there were periods of brilliance and then periods where they looked like they forgot how to defend. Time will tell.

Aside from the Bruins, who without top star Patrice Bergeron were over-achievers just by making it into the playoffs, this was the year that could have been for Boston. A little better alignment in the cosmos could easily have seen the World Series, Super Bowl and NBA championship banners all hung in the stadium rafters within less than 12 months. As it is, following the glorious performance of the Sox last fall, we suffered the pain of the Pats collapse and now face a Celtics team that has suddenly and at the worst possible time, forgotten just how good they are at playing basketball. Hang in there T, and remember, no matter how this effects you personally as a fan, at least you're not a bookie facing financial ruin!
