That didn't go well

The Bruins needed to win last nights game and they did not win.

The Canadiens needed to lose last nights game and they did not lose.

The Bruins are still in the first wildcard slot but now they are two points behind the Canadiens.

Tonight they take on the division-leading Sabres so I don't have high hopes for them. It's going to be a tough three periods.

Either The Very Stable Genius is hallucinating or he's lying.

My guess is he's lying because that's what he does. He lies.

He lied when he said an ex-president told him he wished that he (the ex-president) had done what Trump did to Iran.

He lied when he said the US was in talks with Iran.

He lied when he said he had proof that he won the 2020 election, inciting his cult to attack and take over the US Capital for the first time since the War of 1812.

He lied when he said more people attended his inaguration than any other presidential inaguration.

I suspect that pretty much every word out of his mouth is a lie and it's been that way since he was a little kid.

The annual MLB predictions are out and it appears that the one thing everyone can agree on is that the Rays will suck this season.

As alawys, I'm pretty sure these people are all full of shit. They make up a prediction because their boss tells them to make a prediction. There are no brain cells devoted to making their choices.

They got whooped

The Red Sox played their final spring training game today and they got their ass kicked.

The Twins beat them 15-6.

I am currently do not know if Ranger Suarez sucks or if he just had a bad day. He pitched 4⅓ innings and gave up 8 earned runs. When you give up 8 runs over 4 innings, that's not good.

So now the season begins. They will play their first game on Thursday when they start a 3-game series against the Reds.

The Bruins take on the Maple Leafs tonight and as I've been saying for the last few weeks, it's a must-win for them.

The Canadiens take on the Hurricanes this evening and as I've been saying for the last few weeks, it's a must-lose for them.

Both games start at 7:00.

• This headline pretty much sums up the Trump presidency.



• We should take away their retirement package and put them on social security as well. Then see how fast they fix that system...



• The Red Sox opening day roster is set.

Good game.

The Red Sox played a pretty good game today with what I suspect will be the opening day lineup.

They ended up losing 9-6 to the Twins but that was because Cora pulled the starters in the seventh/eighth innings and put in players that aren't even AAA guys.

They play their final game tomorrow. This will also be against the Twins and first pitch is at 1:05.

And yes, NESN will be carrying the game.

Good win but no advance

The Bruins beat the Red Wings 4-2 in regulation last night but since the Canadiens also won their game, the standings are unchanged.

During last night's game, the talking heads on ABC made an interesting statement. They said, "The Bruins have the toughest remaining schedule in the NHL".

That doesn't sound good but it has been my experience that teams tend to play better when they are up against a tough opponent.

Their next game is this Tuesday, the 24^th when they take on the Maple Leafs.

The Red Sox beat the Pirates 6-3 this afternoon.

They will play two more spring training games, both against the Twins. One game tomorrow and one game on Tuesday.

On Wedensday, they will fly to Cincinatti where on Thursday, they will open the 2026 season against the Reds.

That's when things begin to matter.

Busy day

We spent the day in Boston hanging out with the newest member of our family.

For the record, she is still doing just fine. Her mom and dad are also doing just fine.

They are a happy family.

There is an old saying: "Never speak ill of the dead".

Apparently Trump never heard of that saying.

I imagine there are a lot of people who will say the same thing about him when he dies.
