  • 24 Hours With A Sense of Smell

    Not having a sense of smell has always been my “party trick”. I’ve never smelled a rose. I’ve never smelled a fart. I’ve never smelled a skunk that everyone in the car complains about.

  • Engage Your Brain Before Your Tongue

    Last night someone I was texting asked me what I’m planning on doing with my life. I answered with the typical hopefully something in sports media answer.

  • Late Season Injuries Hit The Celtics Hard

    The Boston Celtics have looked like a championship team for the majority of this season. There has been ups and downs but never anything that made me question their legitimacy. Injuries have struck the locker room. It was like the domino effect. Jaylen Brown went down, everyone else followed. Watching the injuries pour in was… Continue reading

  • Kevin Love Opens Up About His Anxiety.

    I had a very different blog planned for today. In fact, it was a very lighthearted blog. I was half way through it when I stumbled upon Kevin Love’s article for The Player Tribune. He discussed his experience with a panic attack. It wasn’t a panic attack he had at home or after a bad… Continue reading
