Sites To Visit On The Regular

Here are a few of my all time favorite sites, the first of which is quotes from all different individuals. The second is a Boston Sports blog and my homepage. The third is my all time favorite author, The Sports Guy: Bill Simmons. And last but not least the URI basketball blog. I will be adding more sites regularly but feel free to add any other sites you feel people would enjoy!

100 Greatest Boston Athletes: In Reverse Order






Since I am only 22 years of age I did not see many of these athletes play. This is just based on statistics, legend and folklore. I may have tended to lean toward basketball players when making selections as the Celtics dynasties reigned supreme in the 60's, 70's and even 80's. Please let me know what you think, good, bad or undecided. I would also be interested in seeing any corrections you would make, thanks for your time and please do comment!
