We have a "Big" announcement!

While last night's outcome wasn't what we expected or wanted, there are some positives to take away. You ask - what are those positives? Check out these stats! From Horford and Williams III, a combined 29 points on 65% shooting from the field, 50% on 3s. 22 boards (8 offensive) - 5 assists - 2 steals - 5 blocks and only 2 turnovers. Now that's something we can all get used to game in and game out! My compliments to Tom putting these numbers together.

We have the smartest readers out there, so as you can tell our Sentinel Citation Award goes to? Drum Roll please, Al and Rob the two headed "Big" monster.

Al did it all last night, honestly he looked like a younger version of himself! He was crashing the boards, hustling for rebounds and getting his hands in there defensively! He posted up and nailed some threes. He got the crowd into it. Let's not forget he blocked Harrell twice in one play, oh wait they called a foul. Al's career is having a great second act with Boston.

RWill is just a jack of all trades! Rebounding, tips, just keeping balls alive - his work ethic is wonderful. His passing is pretty stout, and he just needs to develop more of a post up presence, maybe Kevin McHale or Robert Parish will fly down and coach him up? His alley oops are thunderous! His defense is solid. This young fella truly works hard.

We here at the Sentinel feel that past Celtic greats would look at the "Bigs" and concur with us awarding them. Now we just need to see the Ws roll in! Bleed Green!

A sorrowful farewell to Kitty's Restaurant (North Reading, MA) as a family tradition

Time to say "Goodbye" to Kitty's Restaurant - my family's destination and tradition for six generations and more than 80 years. My memories of Kitty's go back to the early-1950's . I would accompany my dad and grandfather on fishing trips to the Ipswich River in North Reading, Massachusetts - followed by a visit to the restaurant on Main Street. In later years, my wife, Linda, and I would eat there with our two kids, Marc and Lisa - and years later - with our two grand daughters - and still later - with our great grandson, Carson. Author and family at Kitty's approx. 10 years ago Kitty's never disappointed. The drinks were big and well-made . The food was terrific - as were the portions. The service was exceptional and we became well-acquainted with the waiters and waitresses. It all worked so very well for many decades. My grand daughter, Courtney , was particularly fond of the restaurant. She was born with cystic fibrosis , and during her fr...
