Cup Game Number 3


      Cs take on the Nets for this third cup game, I know I'm super excited. Cs need to win this game and build on the momentum from winning these last few games. Yet they trail by seven early. Joe calls a timeout and we need help! Cs still trail even after the timeout. They better wake up or this win streak will be out the door. Hauser just hasn't found his shot this season. He did a great job finding PP who did knock down the three. Cs are finally putting things together and are up by six. Their passing has been really good and their knocking down their shots. 

     Kudos to the Cs who have limited their turnovers unlike they did in Brooklyn. We see Queta with an excellent pass to Baylor for the deuce. Nice to see the big guy distributing the rock. Cs have lost the lead and need a timeout, they better wake the heck up. It's going to take a strong defensive effort to pull away from this Nets team. Anfernee Simons has such a sweet stroke. Huge rebound by Minott finding Simons for the three. Queta with an absolute poster on that dunk! That was freaking awesome! Took it right to the Nets defender. Cs have six minutes to go on a run and put this game away. We'll what a horrendous way to end the quarter. Cs trail at half and should be embarrassed. 

     This third has been rough but the Cs have fought back. They have trailed by at least ten Herr in the third. These refs suck and are sticking it to JB. Cs must lock in on defense or we are going to lose. These refs suck tonight, and are calling it in favor of the Nets. It feels like we are going to lose tonight. If that's the case we should be ashamed. I can't believe how poorly we are playing right now. This isn't even good basketball. I despise all these coaches challenges. Slows the damn game down to a crawl. 

     Queta with a heck of a block! Cs need to make a dent in this lead. Queta with a huge putback! Hugo diving on the floor is inspiring, and shows this kids heart. Cs are missing opportunities to get back in the game. If they can make these plays they will be right where they need to be. The lead is down to six and the Nets call a timeout. A few stops and scores and we can get a lead. Awful loss. Thoroughly disgusted.

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...

Wemby versus Kareem as rookies

 We already know that the Spurs Victor Wembanyama is going to be an NBA phenomenon, but will he surpass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar by the end of his career. It is highly likely.  I did a "per-36-minutes" comparison between the two stars, mainly because Kareem logged 43.1 MPG in his rookie campaign - while Wemby has been held to only 29.4 MPG. Kareem: 24.1 PPG - 12.1 RPG - 3.4 APG - .518 FG - .653 FT Wemby:  25.9 PPG - 12.9 RPG - 4.5 APG - .463 FG - .796 FT No blocks, steals or 3-pointers were looked at since they were not tracked in Jabbar's first year in the NBA. It should also be noted that Kareem was 22 years old at the time, while Victor started at age 20. Two factors favoring Wembanyama ultimately surpassing Jabbar on any "Best-of-All-Time" charts are his point guard skills , shared by so many European players.  and the fact he is being mentored by Gregg Popovich. His potential seems astounding. But the question remains. Can he garner six Titles and six MVP ...
