Celtics are sailing. Nets are flailing.


      What if I told you the Boston Celtics have the same amount of wins as the Nets, with KD, the Beard, and half a Kyrie. What if I also told you the Celtics will leap frog them in the standings this season. 

     What if I also told you that I feel the Celtics are a better team than the Nets! The Celtics play great defense and are surging as one of the best defensive teams in the league. 

     The Nets are 2-8 over their last ten games. Is the turmoil surrounding Harden the issue?! Or is it that pain in blank Kyrie whose return seems like it's failing like I did in Algebra. Sometimes talent doesn't outweigh the other things and he's a prime example. What if I told you that it's deserving of the Nets and Kyrie to be on a 7 game losing streak after what he did to the Celtics and to the Garden floor last season. 

     I will say this, I know KD is an amazing player, but even he can't save this team. That's because those three stars are a poor mix. They are only about themselves and not about the team. While our beloved Celtics are becoming a true team, coming together and picking each other up game to game. 

     Watch this month Celtics fans and our avid readers. By the end of this month we will have a team fighting for a spot in the top 5 of the East while the Nets will be lucky to make the play in game! 

    This writer has had his moments with this team under-performing, but now they are winning games they would usually lose. All we need is a move or two from Brad to get us a backup point guard, and a bench scorer to go with JRich. Track this months win totals because it's going to be something as we March towards the top!

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...
