Those Boston Teams!!

Less than 48 hours after beating Queen James and the Cleveland Cavaliers..The Boston Celtics defeated the Detroit Pistons 88-79 in the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Scoring was led by Kevin Garnett , 26 points.

Paul Pierce threw in some beautiful fall away shots and had 22 points.

Rajon Rondo had 5 steals and 7 assists to go along with 11 points

Kendrick Perkins had 10 rebounds and really helped to control the boards.

We are still waiting to see Ray Allen step up ( 9pts) but I saw glimmers of the old Ray in this game.




The Boston Red Sox followed up the remarkable No Hit performance by John Lester , a cancer survivor, on Monday. With another fine pitching performance by rookie Justin Masterson who notched his first win in the Majors.

For Jason Varitek's it was his 4th No Hitter as catcher and it should put him in the record books and maybe even the Hall of Fame.

The last 2 No Hitters pitched in the Majors were pitched by Red Sox Pitchers!!

Tonight the Red Sox faithful will get their first look at Bartolo Colon on the mound, the 35 year old pitcher will start against the Kansas City Royals tonight in Boston.

Trivia Player Picture Series, here's DAWTCH !!

5.Operator9	69	3

Kathlock from Blurb from the Burbs slipped ahead of PG this week for weekly points winner...I think PG may have waited a little too late one evening and that may have cost him consecutive wins!!

CONGRATULATIONS kathlock !!

The New-Boy better known as Soy-Boy to the trivia players, was just immortalized in the Player Picture Series this week. I told you he was a rising star...Not only that but he's kicked me out of the top 5 for the month!! I have other pictures MUHAHAHAHA!!

PG, once referred to as P-Genius on the shoutbox for the trivia game can't be happy with this weeks scores!!

Dawtch is a mystery player...currently 9th overall and has really poured it on this week taking 4th place for weekly points gained.. Good luck Dawtch...And we could use a picture of you for the series...

Operator9 has made a comeback...we saw her scores slip...I think she blamed it in on being busy or tired.New Job. WHATEVER!!.She must be getting her sleep now..really we don't want to hear excuses at Tom's Trivia Challenge!!!!!



Only other news...


Celtics are playing game 7 against the Cleveland Cavaliers in Boston today!!!

SOY-BOY and the Trivia Picture Series Continues

Soy Boy and his twin sister, Soy Girl!! I wonder why she isn't competing in Tom's Trivia Challenge?? A rising star at Tom's Trivia , Soy-Boy started out with a slightly different dream....

He Wanted to be a COW- BOY .... BABY !!

Or maybe the Marlboro Man..what's he got in his mouth??

Soon after his Cow-Boy dreams faded away...He thought maybe he'd be the next American Idol...

But he didn't want to end up singing as an Elvis Impersonator all his life...

So now he's, a student, a teacher and an avid Boston Sports Fan

His BIG DREAM ....... To Be Number 1 on Tom's Trivia!!

Thanks for the pics Soy-Boy and please ask your sister not to get mad at me !! Oh and in that first picture....Those are some nice pants!!

With a renewed commitment, PG has stormed the Tom's Trivia Challenge !! He vowed to "Play Every Day" at the beginning of the month....and by doing so he scored an AMAZING 132 points in the past week alone....If he keeps this up I may have to change the name of the tournament to PG's Trivia Challenge. PG made it interesting last night, not playing until very late....and coming up with a last minute win in Saturdays Game

GREAT JOB PAT!!

Kathlock was our star player last week and IQ will have his picture up in the Trivia Player Picture Series later this week...

I'd like to give Soy Boy an honorable mention for the week, he earned 63 points in the past week and PG's late night win knocked him out of the Weekly Top 5
