BRUINS WIN IN OT
Bruins 3, Flyers 2 OT

Huuuuge win for the Bruins although had it come in regulation, we'd be a mere point behind top seeded Philadelphia. Oh well.

SCHILLING TOSSES BP
First live batting practice Schilling has thrown with Boston. He threw 45 pitches.

URI GOT SCREWED
Did anyone see this game. #2 St. Joe's should have lost to the Rams but the refs fucked it up. So many bullshit calls on URI and very few calls on SJU. I really dislike St. Joe's. They're not the 2nd best team in the country. Yes, they're undefeated, but who have they beaten? If they were in the ACC, they'd have 5 or 6 losses already. Let's look at St. Joe's pussy schedule:

Gonzaga (in NYC, exhibition game)
@ Boston
@ Old Dominion
San Francisco
@ Penn
Boston College
@ Drexel
@ Cal
Pacific
@Deleware
G. Washington
@ Richmond
@ Duquesne
Fordham
@ Xavier
UMass
@ St. Bonaventure
@ Temple
@ Villanova
La Salle
Dayton
Rhode Island
@ Fordham
Temple
@ UMass
@ Rhode Island
St Bonaventure

This schedule is a joke. Apart from Gonzaga, there are no ranked teams. And that was a freaking exhibition. Mark my words, St. joe's will not make it out of their pod.

XAVERIAN HOCKEY ROLLS
#14 XBHS 3
Barnstable 0

The HawX play #19 Braintree Monday night in Watertown. The winner will play the winner of the Springfield Cathedral/Bridgewater-Raynham game. Two years ago we played Braintree late in the tournament. I remember chanting the name of a Braintree High dropout who raped a girl. Funny stuff. Not rape, the chant I mean.

HOCKEY EAST TOURNAMENT APPROACHES
Speaking of amateur hockey tournaments, the Hockey East tournament is coming up. with two games remaining, boston College has a 5 point lead over Maine and has clinched the top seed which means they'll host the #8 seed 2 out of 3 games in the quarterfinal series. Maine has clinched the 2nd seed. UMass and UNH are battling for third with UMass holding an edge. PC, Merrimack, and UMass-Lowell are competing for the 5th seed. BU and Northeastern are battling for the last available spot as the 8th seed. Here are the possible pairings for the quarterfinal series:

#8 BU or NU or UMass-Lowell @ #1 Boston College
#7 BU or UMass-Lowell @ #2 Maine
#6 Merrimack or PC or UMass-Lowell or BU @ #3 UMass or UNH
#5 PC or Merrimack @ #4 UNH or UMass

The Globe has new spring training pics on their sports site including a nice pic of Damon's scrubness and Nomar wearing a Patriots champions t-shirt.

Celtics won their second straight game. WOW!
