The path to 5-5 for New England is right there, caller.

Boston Sports Journal is like a graveyard for once-overpaid scribes who don’t know they’re dead yet.

Which vacant position gets filled first, Sporting Director for the Revolution, or Red Sox General Manager?

How dare you take joy in the struggles of brash dickhead Deion Sanders!

Bruins aren’t playing until tomorrow night? Did they catch the old Boston & Albany train to Chicago, where they switched to the Union Pacific’s Overland Route to the Bay Area as a Centennial tribute?

I hope the money Katie won on Celebrity Jeopardy goes to help poor put-upon woman in sports Kayce.

If Velma from Scooby Doo played bass for the Ramones, she’d look like Karen Guregian.

What does a senior consultant do?

Suzanne Somers died? That can’t be. This must be some kind of wacky misunderstanding! RIP.

Cakes are cooking for Mike Ditka, Russ Giguere, Pam Dawber, Martina Navratilova, Thomas Hearns, Wynton Marsalis, Alex Cora, Yoenis Cespedes, Zac Efron, and Brittany Griner.

Kept undefeated Penn State under 70, UMass. That’s not bad.

Baseball needs another prominent knuckleballer again. Nothing like adding to the nerves of October baseball like wondering if the knuckler is gonna cooperate that night.

Four-cylinder Honda’s are going to get very pricey again.

The Dolphins released 2019 Patriots third-rounder Chase Winovich from the practice squad with an injury settlement.

Who’s trippin’ down the streets of the city
Smilin’ at everybody she sees?
Who’s reachin’ out to capture a moment?
Everyone knows it’s Windy.

And Windy has stormy eyes.

And Windy has wings to fly,
Above the clouds (above the clouds)
Above the clouds (above the clouds.)

Honk if you know what to do when you get to the Slauson Cutoff.

I hope the Newscenter 5 Eyeopener Team all know they are still beautiful inside and out.

Mac is going to get every Pats offensive skill player injured.

I’m not a Texas fan or rooting for them, but I’m just thrilled with the post-season success of Jordan Montgomery. People are SO convinced that you have to throw 100 in order to get people out now. You can’t overstate the value of one pitcher who proves that that isn’t true.
