Just arrived here in Boston late tonight and thought I’d turn on the local news to see just how high the Celtics are ranking on the news ladder here. On a normal night, I’m guessing they’d be leading the show, but with Senator Kennedy’s brain surgery, and David Ortiz’ wrist injury (he’ll miss a month), the boys in green were relegated to third fiddle status. Still, the local Fox affiliate was promoting its online Celtics hub, which has a really extensive history primer on the rivalry.
It’s worth checking out as it has box scores from every game the teams have ever played.
