A win and a win

The Bruins beat the Sabres 3-1 last night but in all honesty, if it wasn't for the Sabres goalie, the score would have been 10-1.

The puck spent more time heading towards the Sabres net than anything else. The Bruins took 31 shots on goal last night and a lot of the saves made by the Sabres goalie were kinda miraculous. Particularly in the first period when the Bruins took 17 of those 31 shots.

They are off today. Tomorrow they take on the Lightning. Puck drops at 1:00.


The Patriots managed to beat the Saints 25-19 this afternoon. I'm kind of surprised they won because at one point in this game, I said to myself, "I wonder how much the Saints paid the refs?"

There were some calls in the Saints favor that were clearly a non-violation.

On call was particularly bad to the point where the CBS commentators said it was a bad call. Maye passed the ball 50+ yards to Douglas who caught it and promptly ran it into the end zone for a touchdown. After the play was over, while the Patriots were celebrating in the end-zone, a flag was thrown and Diggs was called on pass interference for putting his hand onto the shoulder of a Saints defender BEFORE THE BALL WAS THROWN! Two guys who weren't even in the play or near the ball.

Two of the bad calls were overturned on challenges from Vrabel which kinda proves there were calls being made that were flat out wrong.

But all that aside, the Patriots are now 4-2 and as they are playing very, very well.

Next up for them will be the Titans.


With the Cubs 3-1 loss to the Brewers last night, the penant races are now set:

The ALCS starts tonight with the Mariners @ the Blue Jays. First pitch is at 8:00 and the series will be carried by FOX.

The NLCS starts tomorrow with the Dodgers @ the Brewers. That game will be at 8:00 and that series will be carried by TBS.

Go Brewers!
