For Boston, For Boston

Some of you may know, and some of you could probably care less, but I am a huge Boston hockey fan. I follow the Bruins for the NHL and the Boston College Eagles for college hockey. This time of year those that are hardcore hockey fans turn their attention to the playoffs. Its a great time of year. While we have a few more weeks til the NHL playofs the NCAA hockey playoffs are in full swing.

So in honor of that and to show off that I can do a little more than sketch some sexy curvy ladies I give you the bear and the bird. Let's go Bruins! Lets go Eagles!!

Gawd I luv hawkey!!!

Manic Monday- Lace Up The Skates Edition

Man oh man. Well a surprise overtime monday at the day job has really thrown everything for a loop today. I was hoping to make it to the gym and maybe get some new stuff worked up. Sadly I am just now getting settled back in home. Life really is what happens when you make other plans.

So in honor of it being the first monday of the month of February, I figured I would show off some more support for a local tradition here in Boston and New England. The first two Mondays of February in Boston mean one thing, the Beanpot tournament. All four major college hockey teams in Boston get together and play for a trophy that means pride and bragging rights for the year. Havard, Boston University, Northeastern and Boston College lace up their skates and go at it for a little trophy that resembles a beanpot. Get it?

Well being that my favorite team is BC i wanted to show off my support as best I can. These are callbacks and oldies but goodies. Hope you are all getting the month off to a good start.

Go Eagles!!!

TCT - Tailgating Edition

Its that time of year again. The crisp autumn air is slowly creeping in. We got a good taste of it yesterday here in New England. The smell or beers and brahts cooking on an open grill in a parking lot filled with cars. Young people entering stadiums half naked with other peoples names painted on their chests and backs. Ahhh yes, its back to football.  While the NFL doesnt kick off until next week, we get our first taste of real gridiron competition tonight with the college football season getting underway. I am not a huge fan of it but I do pay attention to how the season unfolds. Its hard not when its the only thing to watch on saturdays ya know.

I don't really have a favorite team. Boston isn't really known for its stellar college football programs anyway. I always root for BC. Pay attention to the Harvard and Yale thing. Other than those ones I go for the midwest teams mainly. ohio State, Michigan, Michigan State, Wisconsin. Pretty much all the schools with good college hockey teams I pay attention too. My school didnt have a team so i can pick and choose. we barely had enough people in my class to fill out a roster anyway.

So as a nice little treat to join the party I did a nice little football theme.

We've got spirit, yes we do. We've got spirit, how bout you??

Go Team!!

Happy Thick Chick Thursday everyone!
