Pick whatever word you want, we’re all saying the same thing. I’ve lived through my fair share of disappointment watching the Boston Celtics over the course of my life. I lived through KG’s knee injury in 2009. I lived through losing Game 7 of the NBA Finals in 2010. I lived through the 2018-19 Celtics. I lived through the 2022 NBA Finals. In fact, the majority of my life with this team has resulted in some sort of disastrous disappointment....

What is there to even say? I’m not sure I’m totally positive about what I just watched. Well, that’s not true. There’s bad, and then there was THAT. We watched the Miami Heat look the Boston Celtics in the eye and laugh at them. They took a somewhat soft Celtics punch early on the chin and laughed. All series long they’ve been the tougher team. They’ve been the ones who imposed their will and played with force....

As the 2023 college lacrosse season kept moving along, one thing started to become very clear. There were 3 truly great teams, and then there was everybody else. Virginia started off the season as the #1 ranked team in the country. The held that position until week 6 of the season when they lost to Maryland in overtime. Then Notre Dame took over, but only for a few days until they were taken down by Virginia....

We start, as always, with the winner. Brooks Koepka is an all-time great. Likes baseball more than golf. Goes over to Europe and cuts his teeth on the famously gritty Challenge Tour. The Masters proved that these guys can still play. Heck, thats why LIV paid them so much money. Today is about Brooks Koepka’s comeback. The guy is a terminator on the golf course. The strongest player mentally since Tiger Woods....

Well folks, this is it. The Boston Celtics woke up this morning with their season at a crossroads. There are 2 options and 2 options only for them today. Win Game 3 and get back into this series 2. Lose Game 3 and your season is over That is what today’s 48 minutes will dictate. Win, and you’re down 2-1 after three games the exact same way you were last ECF....

The Boston Celtics had an 8 point lead heading into the fourth quarter. Win the quarter win the game and even this series up. He then made the immedite mistake of talking shit to Jimmy Butler. That shot put the Celts up 96-87. Momentum was starting to turn. All you had to do was just shut the fuck up and get back on defense. Why the fuck are you poking JIMMY BUTLER of all people?...

People dont just fly kites for fun. Thats why we can get away with much smaller rotors. Flying high 40% off TNW Conference! The firm has eight employees. This would require a lengthy tether, extending to 150m. Such machines might fly at altitudes comparable to the height of the Empire State Building in New York. Icewinds gadget is a sort of open, curved cylinder spinning within a metal frame. Its roughly the size of a refrigerator, says Stephen Drake, chief executive....

OK, first the bad news. As we talked about yesterday, teams with a 2-0 lead are 414-33 all time. In the Conference Finals, they are 56-6. Unfortunately, it gets worse. OK, now the good news. There isn’t much outside of this one fact. You have to lose 4 to lose a series. You don’t lose a series by losing 2 games. For whatever reason, the Celtics homecourt is actually a gigantic negative....

It seems barely a day goes by without a new report of artificial intelligence replacing jobs. Across Europe, predictions on automations effect on jobsvarywildly, but all agree that major changes are inevitable. With the impact already being felt, the need for government action is becoming urgent. Here are five interventions they can take. Retraining the workforce The concept of a job for life, was disappearingeven beforeAIs relentless march into the workplace....

Honestly, I was cheering for more overtimes. Side Note: The Ohio High School State Hockey Tournament in 2014 went into 7 OT’s. It was one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen. The NHL definitely should never do that. But that’s not the point of this blog. The game last night was great. Overtime hockey is awesome. It can end at any moment, there’s not commercials, etc. Not because of the talent on each team....

But there is also a rail-bound version of FlixBus dubbed, you guessed it, FlixTrain. By mid-2022, the company serviced over 70 stations along many of Germanys main rail routes. Flix also recently expanded its train internet to Sweden. 40% off TNW Conference! FlixTrain has become the main competitor to DB in recent years, partly thanks to its comparatively low fares. However, it is to be noted that DB still has a 97% market share in Germany....

I think we all understand what is at stake tonight and how important this Game 2 is. Teams that go up 2-0 are 414-33 all time. In the Conference Finals, that team is 56-6. you oughta walk out of the Garden 1-1. It wasn’t too long ago the Celts found themselves in this exact position. Dropping Game 1 against the Sixers, Harden going off for 40+, they needed to punch back....
