The Beanpot Trot


BOOMBAAAAAA! Solid fucking gold. Take a lesson singers and songwriters this is how shit is done. Guarantee you Jerry York wrote this entire thing, just something that wily bastard would have done. I mean "swoop's" lines at the 1:20 mark had Jay-Z noddin his head. All I can say is, after our recent domination of the Beanpot and finding this video I can confidently concur we are the greatest hockey program this side of the universe. Your move BU, your move.

PS. How much ass does "Mac" at the 3:00 mark smash? Dude said he likes to diddle and he'll be dancing through the middle? 50-60 Northeastern women I'm guessing.

Mouse Chronicles: Day 2


It didn't take long for the next incident in the Mousecapades, not long at all. I awoke to a banging at the door. Not a knock, a bang. Someone very close to putting the structural integrity of my door in grave danger. I rolled out of bed in nothing but my boxers and my retainer (how's that for a visual ladies...) and still a little groggy, opened the door. Was that the SWAT team that stood before me? Bulletproof vests, futuristic weaponry around their waist, gas masks and a first aid bag for if things got out of hand, the boys were ready to go to war. I came to find out, however, this wasn't the SWAT team I had just let into my room, it was... "The Exterminators." "We hear you've got mice," they said as they entered the room. They hear we've got mice?! That, ladies and gentlemen, is the power of the press. They hear we've got mice, HA! Obviously the exterminators are following what we're doing here at the Scenes and read all about Mousce Chronicles Day 1. Knowing Mucc and I were in over our heads they graciously offered their services to their two favorite bloggers. (I'm imagining this is what happened. I mean I know they never directly said this, but it's the only reasonable explaination, right?)
If there were ever two people who don't fuck around with mice, it's these guys. None of the sticky trap bullshit like I was talking about before, only pure, unadultered, killing machines. Captain Exterminator himself called them his "Mouse Manglers." I mean the name itself is probably scary enough to kill these rat bastards (See what I did there? "Rat" bastards... No? Okay). Captain X, as his nametag read, then brought out the single biggest container of peanut butter I have ever seen. Like, words can not even begin to describe how many PB&Js my mom could've made with this thing. So, he lathered up the traps, layed them out and was quietly on his way. Captain X doesn't fuck around with mice and they better damn well know not to fuck with him.
So now we've got 7 traps. 4 sticky, 3 Mouse Manglers. The mouse had his moment of glory, but he's messing with the wrong guys. We've made our move Mickey Mouse, now it's your turn. This. Is. War.

Haran-gone


What a day for the Boston Celtics. The C's followed up this afternoon's blockbuster with another slightly less notable deal. The deal sends a couple of big goofy white men to the Cavaliers for a 2013 2nd round pick. Semih Erden and Luke Harangody are on the way out in a move that was made to open up roster space for potential free agent signings. It appears Danny Ainge and Co. already have a few options lined up with F Troy Murphy of the Golden State Warriors leading the way and with the ageless Rip Hamilton waiting in the wings. The Celtics also agreed to send the injured Marquis Daniels, who suffered that scary spinal cord injury right before the All-Star break, to the Kings. Daniels does have the option to refuse any trade due to his contract structure, but either way the Drive for 18 is going to look a whole lot different from here on out.
In the span of about 30 minutes today the C's moved 5 players from a team that currently has the best record in the Eastern Conference. Danny, I know you probably didn't recognize me with my cowboy hat on when I yelled at you at the BC hoop game a couple weeks ago, but I hope you can hear me loud and clear now. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I understand something needed to be done. We needed a 3-man to come off the bench who could defend and score when need be and I think we got that in Jeff Green, but did we really need to replace the entire bench? I guess time will tell. I like that you're looking at another goofy white man in Troy Murphy to replace Harangody. You have to understand that we must have at least one on the roster at all times. The Perkins piece, I get it. He hasn't recovered like we thought he would from his surgery, but will the old legs of KG and Shaq and the newly aquired Nenad Krstic (how you say that name, or where he is from is completely beyond me) be able to take us on another championship run? Mucc was a little frazzled by the deal when he broke the news of this deal, but I think in all the chaos he got it just right. All these moves are interesting. Very, very interesting.

BREAKING NEWS: PERK and NAT ROBINSON TRADED FOR JEFF GREEN!


Word coming out of Scenes insider John Ponziani is that Kendrick Perkins, Celtics center, has been traded to OKC Thunder for forward Jeff Green and center Nenad Kristic. Can't blog too much about this right now but gotta say I love this deal initially. I always have loved Jeff Green and Nenad adds another big white guy to cheer on. Not to mention Nenad has some skills in the paint and can move...unlike perk right now. Perk just wasn't responding well to surgery...Interesting move!

PS. JUST RECIEVING WORD THAT NATE ROBINSON WAS INCLUDED IN THE DEAL!!! This makes the deal certainly seem more fair, but always very intriguing did the clets get the better deal? not sure now.

Did Mark Blaudschun Copy me?

"The sound you heard coming from Conte Forum last night was the NCAA Tournament “bubble’’ for Steve Donahue’s Boston College basketball team . . .

A. deflating

B. bursting

C. disappearing

Pick one." -Mark Blaudshun Feb 24th, Boston.com

Motherfucker read our fledgling blog huh? I'm pretty sure I said the exact same thing last night when I wrote: "That sound you just heard my friends may have been this years edition of the Boston College men's basketball team's bubble bursting."

Oh well, Mr. Blaudschun, if that's how you wanna play we shall play.

Melo Makes the Knicks good again.


HAHA Jus' playin. I don't think the Knicks are better with Melo....Am I crazy? I don't think I'm crazy either. Like for real they aren't any better. Maybe they will sell more tickets, but they are the same exact team they were before the trade, except now they have more big mouth, lazy, egos running around Manhattan. One of the things I hate about the sports media is they jump on and off the handle so easily its ridiculous. The Knicks beat a horrible Bucks team (15 games under .500) last night at home by 6. Ya that's right at home, by 6. I realize they will only get better with time, while Melo jells with his new teammates, but do the smart asses in NY really think they are going to contend with the Celtics? Are they serious? We bully them and the Heat all over the place, and will continue to do so on our way to the Finals. NY Fans are disillusioned, and so is ESPN. Did anyone notice the fucking Nuggets won by 13 over an above .500 Grizzlies team tuesday night? I guess not having Carmelo "I jack up just as many shots as points" Anthony didn't really effect them. The facts of the case are this: Melo's a huge ego who took 25 shots last night to score 27 points; he doesn't play defense; and he doesn't know how to pass the ball yet. Go Celts. I'm not worried.

Unbelievable Scene of the Day

To score 52 points is one thing. To do it against the 7th best team in the country and still lose by one point is pretty incredible. Well Done today Marshon Brooks, the Providence combo guard had 52 points in a 94-93 loss to 7th ranked Notre Dame (typical ND bullshit). I hope Marshon now runs the table at Providence, nailing 52 of the hottest women there (thats 1 for each point for those counting)...

Reggie Speaks


"Obviously, they were more physical," Jackson said of the Hurricanes. "When we foul, it seems like we're playing pitty-pat with our girlfriends, and when they foul us, obviously, we end up on our backsides." -Reggie

Ya no shit they were tougher. I hate to harp on things but this loss really bugs me out, and I don't think Reggie is spot on here. There were plenty of times tonight that Reggie, Biko, and Corey Raji all had easy lanes, with 1 guy perhaps in there way, to the bucket but passed on them, dishing out to a perimeter teammate. I don't think its a matter of our guys flying when we get hit, or us not hitting them hard enough, I think this toughness Reggie speaks of starts with Reggie himself, and any of the other guys who drive to the lane (which we don't do enough of). Going to the rim hard and attacking zones and defenders is where we need to find our toughness. Toughness isn't necessarily putting a guy on his ass, it's making sure he doesn't stop you from getting to where you need to go. With, or without the ball we don't get to where we need to go even close to enough. Too often we get stopped, and our courage, toughness, and confidence are all dictated by our opponents.
