Thanks Jrue

By


     Jrue Holiday has been traded and I feel disgusted. If it wasn't for Jrue Banner 18 may not happen as smoothly as it did. Heck Giannis should be thanking Jrue for his title as well. Jrue Holiday was the truest of Celtics, a guy who could play in any ERA of the Celtics. I mean seriously he could fit with any one of our title teams. Jrue Holiday is an elite defender and can guard any position on the floor. Defensively hes won plenty of games making key plays. Offensively he can score from anywhere and has always made clutch shots.

     This move was made to cut costs because new ownership doesn't want to pay the luxury tax. Portland has themselves a guy who can lead that young team over there. I fully expect Jrue to make his impact over there. I'm just sitting here thinking about Jrue and how many big plays he made in a short window here in Boston. The man is a winner and gentleman. I for one will always root for him. This seems to be a start of many moves for the Celtics. Is Hauser or KP next... The draft is Wednesday and I expect firework. The first big domino to fall was KD, we also saw Desmond Bane get shipped to Orlando. 

     Congrats to the OKC Thunder in their championship win against the Pacers who fought hard. Unfortunately Haliburton suffered an injury like JT which ends up costing them the series. Thanks for the memories and Banner 18 Jrue you will always be a Celtic in my eyes.

According to many sources, the Celtics Kevin McHale did indeed have an estimated wingspan of 8-feet. One of those sources is Wikipedia, as seen below: Kevin McHale American basketball player DescriptionKevin Edward McHale is an American retired basketball player who played his entire professional career for the Boston Celtics.

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...
