Is history repeating itself with Celtics latest star-duo?

By


      Is history repeating itself? Are we in the midst of doing something very drastic? This writer doesn't believe it needs to be done, but I feel some media members and fans do. Before I dive in let me say this, we drafted two studs, both of which are still young. There are not many NBA players willing to come to Boston. I'm talking studs, stars, guys who move the needle. 

     We all remember the Antoine Walker, Paul Pierce days, there were some wonderful moments, yet only one time did they reach the ECF. Early on they were coached by the rat, whose name I will not use. He never adapted to the NBA and wasted a lot of young talent. That group had their ceiling and it wasn't bringing in any banners. Although Jim O'Brien did a great job getting them into the ECF where they completed a historical epic comeback. fast forward and Toine is gone. It becomes the Truth's team and still no titles. We all know what happens in history. 

     Has this duo of Tatum and Brown experienced more success then Toine and PP, especially early in their careers. Reaching the ECFs a few times. Both players have the ability to lead a team, but can they do it together? Last season we dealt with Covid and a weak roster. This season Covid has reared it's ugly head once again. Plus the injury bug has bitten us. I'm not making excuses I'm just sharing facts. 

      With that said, both the Jays, are very talented and if given the right roster can become very special. The question is what do our readers feel?? I need some feedback. My thought is this you aren't going to bring back anything better in a trade in my opinion, your also not drafting anyone at the caliber of a JB or JT. The floor is yours Celtics fans!

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

By
  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...
