Reminder that Celtics-Sixers Game 2 is on Peacock and NBC Sports Network. That *is not* the same as NBC Sports Boston, which no longer has first-round games. NBCSN is available on Xfinity and YouTube TV. Good luck out there in the Streaming Jungle of Greed. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/04/21/s...

Same. It's a whole thing.
A milkshake in a microwave. There must have been piles of cocaine at that marketing meeting.
I never had this! Probably for the best, but still...
If they're lucky!
People talking about AI like this reminds me of when microwaves started to become a thing, and too many people thought they could make a five-course meal in a filthy Kenmore.
FranklinBenedict • 17h * New York Mets I just want to say that the New York Mets are now 47-70 since playing "Kokomo" on the day Brian Wilson died last June. The curse no one is talking about. 4 Reply 3 3,172少 yumyumapollo • 17h Ro Tampa Bay Rays ® Top 1% Commenter Met Sounds 5 个18941
And they look great.

Tl; dr: Ace the basics. Submit clean copy; hit deadlines; make your word count. Say please and thank you. Don't be a knob.
Yeah, I blew the timing. Life got in the way. So I worked over the weekend, because it was on me, not the editor.
I heard a veteran freelance writer on a podcast tell listeners not to care about deadlines and I cannot think of a worst piece of advice. Making an editor's job harder is not a good career move.
I filed all the stories. I wrote 4,000 words in a week on top of my daily copy editing gig. Still beats working for a living.
Just great. Also, once upon a time, one of the nation's great sports departments—Whitlock, excepted, of course.
*wait
Can't for the Niners to take a coffeemaker in the third round.
The copy-editing and fact-checking did me in. Damn, sometimes I wish I cared less.
Me, six weeks ago: Three deadlines in one day will be no problem! I'll just space out the reporting and writing and Bob's your uncle!

So that’s how he ended up with Tawny Kitean.
What's the accent? I bet it's half Sofia Vergara and half "it's-a-me-Mario."
A friendly reminder that if your team is out of the NBA playoffs and you're bored stupid, my book, FROM HANG TIME TO PRIME TIME, is a great way to tide yourself over until next year.
People are saying that it's the best basketball book I've ever written.
Whenever someone who doesn’t watch the NBA asks me about Wemby, all I can say is that he does at least 2-3 things every game that I’ve never seen anyone do before at his size
This reminds me of the time a dear friend of mine, followed by his housemate, removed a meat thermometer from the Thanksgiving turkey with their bare hands.
And then remove them with your bare hands because you forgot the oven was on.
I don't know. Was he on the '86 Mets or on the '94 Knicks?
Fandom is a powerful deceiver, especially when you're a kid.
