It’s 5/15!!! thecitypulse’s favorite WHO song…Oh Yeah and F-the Hurricanes!!! May 15, 2009
Posted by thecitypulse in : Uncategorized , add a comment
Tonight they didn’t!!!!
thecitypulse is totally f-in pissed!!!! We wanted it. Did the Bruins??? I blame Dan Shaugnessy. His article the other day was how the Bruins haven’t won a game 7 in years. Thanks Mr. Negative. Where are you gonna go when the Globe goes buh-bye??? Anyway, I’m too depressed to write a blog. 3 sports teams…and not one of them could win. WTF?!?! That and the fact that David Ortiz can’t hit and the guy who scored the winning goal against the B’s is the one that should’ve been suspended. Dagger in the heart!!! Well, at least we have game 7 of the Celts this weekend!!! I hope.
Eddie Monney is at the House of Blues with Fox Pass. Tix are $25 - $35. He looks how every Boston fans feels today.
I apologize that there is not a complete run down for tonight but I think we’re all drained or at least I am.
See you back here at thecitypulse.com
Yes, today is 5/15. “Out of my brain on the train.” Enjoy!!!
