Fresh back from a family excursion in the '05 Trailblazer to the Sunshine State, I find myself just starting to get back into the groove.Finishing up 23-straight hours in a car is one thing, but when you take on the "awake time" it really starts to sound crazy. Sheryl and I were awake (barring short 20- to 30-min catnaps) from 7 am Easter morning until 11:30 Monday night.
Needless to say, this morning alarm was not welcome. In fact, it was downright hated.
So while I am still turning it around from our vacation and travels, I figured I could at least comment -- albeit briefly -- on the turnarounds so far on the Boston sports scene.
-- Since the Sox were the last subject I spoke of, let's start there. How about that starting pitching? Didn't see that sort of thing coming, now did I. In fact all I've complained about was the uncertainties on the staff. Let's hope it stays that way.
-- The Cs -- well the Celtics do seem to have switch that they are capable of flipping come playoff time. I guess it shouldn't be that surprising -- they did it last year to the tune of almost hoisting 18. All that being said, the Cs still took the brooms out against the Knicks. Not Miami. Not Chicago. And....it was a pretty banged up Knicks team at that. Let's see what happens next.

-- The Bruins rattled back from an 0-2 hole to regain command of the series at 3-2, that is -- up until tonight when the Habs made it a Best of One series. As my nephew pointed out tonight. The Bs are 0-3 in their last three Game 7s. So you can only hope for the best and expect the worst. Especially when their opponent is Montreal.
That's it for now, I need to continue catching up on my zzzzzzzzzzzs. (BTW: the pic is of J chilling by the pool on the last day before the dreaded trip back. In case you were wondering. The tan runs in the family.)
