Family Vacation

Sidenote - it’s delicious. No wonder everyone loves us (the Irish). Heck, his parents are straight off the boat from Erin. His father helped build Manhattan. He is going to shut down every pub each night. Spider- If you drew up an ideal travel companion, Spider would be on the short list.

The Celtics Have Suddenly Decided To Stop Playing Like Assholes And The Wins Keep On Coming During This Crucial West Coast Trip

A ton has been made about the Bears' need to protect Justin Fields and surround him with weapons. That is definitely true and it has been a focus of the off-season.
