Random Thoughts, Sights and Sounds - A Potpourri of Knowledge

Yesterday's public support for the Montreal Canadiens Let's Go Canadiens (clap, clap, clap, clap, clap) marks the last time that I will outwardly state my support for a team in such a way on this blog. I am now 0-3 when I publicly back one team over another.

Claude Julien pulled a Terry Francona and inserted a player (Phil Kessel) back into the lineup that all of the fans and media knew should be in the lineup, much in the same way that Francona did for Game 6 of last year's ALCS when he sat down Coco Crisp and started Jacoby Ellsbury. Much like Ellsbury did in Game 6 of the ALCS, Kessel had an impact in Thursday night's game Game 5, scoring the first Boston goal, tying the game at 1-1.

Will Kessel's presence in the lineup be enough for the Bruins to come back and win the series, that remains to be seen, but the possible parallel to Ellsbury is hard to ignore.

The McLovin fund - has nothing to do with me and this blog, but please feel free to float McLovin a dollar after watching this public service announcement. He needs our support to cure his sex addiction.



Cool website of the week. If you haven't already, check out hulu.com. It's a site where you can watch many popular tv shows (such as 30 Rock, ER, Nip/Tuck and The Office) and movies (such as The Simpsons Movie, Fever Pitch, The Girl Next Door, Master and Commander) for free from your computer.

Have a great weekend everyone.
