What a weekend for New England sports

This was such an unbelievable weekend for New England sports. The Red Sox overcome a 3 game to 1 deficit to win three straight games and move on to the World Series. Saturday night J.D. Drew finally came up big with a Grand Slam to begin a rally for a 12-2 win. Sunday night the Sox came up big again with an 11-2 win over Cleveland, although the game was much closer than the final score makes it appear. Champagne was spraying, Papelbon was dancing an Irish jig and Ortiz had his goggles on before the game was even over.

On top of an amazing weekend for the Red Sox, the undefeated New England Patriots crushed the winless Miami Dolphins Sunday afternoon. With a halftime score of 42-7, the commentators were hoping for a mercy rule to put a stop to the beating. Many New England starters were pulled from the game for the second half allowing Miami to put a few more on the board but falling very short of a victory, New England won 49-28 to maintain undefeated status at 7-0.



It may still be 75 degrees out, but the leaves are changing and my mind is starting to drift towards my favorite winter sport: snowboarding. Now is a great time to buy a used board if you are new to the sport or are just looking to upgrade your current set up. Check out the Want Ad's Winter Sporting Goods section.

If you’re looking for some new gear check out ProBoardShop.com,
they are having a 50% off sale and have all kinds of new boards like Burton, K2, Forum, Rome, Ride and a whole lot more. They also have a full line of clothing and accessories at great prices.


Northeast Ski Pass


I also recommend purchasing a Powder Passport which is good at 16 mountains in New England and you can buy them for 1, 2, 3, 5 or 7 days. You don't have to use the days consecutively so you can save a lot of money and you don't have to commit to one mountain like a season pass.

Go Red Sox!
