100th Anniversary... Of Helping!

Only BOSTON came through to help out 

at the most dire hour in Nova Scotia history; 

the infamous Halifax Explosion tragedy 

that cut short so many lives - 

altered the path of so many more... 

The city of Boston was the one that sent 

supplies, clothes, the works - 

and that Christmas, after the explosion, 

wasn't so sad and miserable after all... 

Ever since, out of deepest gratitude, 

Halifax ships, each year, a Christmas Tree to Boston 

- and this tradition not only continues, 

one hundred years later - 

it is at its strongest yet.

This has been, incidentally, our 100th post 

of Bostonian Dreaming, too! 

After 10 Years - Bye Bye Claude!

Claude Julien is fired just as he confirmed himself 

to be the winningest coach in Bruins history: 

he's even ahead of the legendary Jack Adams!

But he can't hold a Samuel Adams...

So OUT he is!

I wonder if namesake Claude Poirier will quit being a fan of the team 

- in protest of this latest miscarriage of JUSTICE...?

Wow - February 3rd, Claude P. started his new show, 

promising 100% JUSTICE...

Within 3 days, Claude J. was FIRRRRRED...!!!

No, no and NO - 

in truth and officially,

we at the Bostonian Dreaming department here 

see absolutely nothing wrong (full) with 

the dismissal of one C.J. there - 

we'll definitely say nothing bad of it 

but we do hear LOTS about it - 

and it's all evil alright!

Ill-omens and naysayings about the chances 

of seeing these Boston Bruins accomplish anything at all 

- now that their top strategist is gone! 

Never mind the fact that old man C.J. 

was predictable and stubborn 

in his ''defense first'' 

- a proven method 

that wasn't producing results, alas; 

not consistently anyways! 

Otherwise, the Bruins wouldn't be sitting 

in ninth place in the Eastern standings, 

as they currently are; 

outside of the playoff picture!

At least BOSTON still has champions 

in the miraculous Patriots 

who managed to seize 

glorious victory 

as it appeared 

doomed not to be!

There was no 

celebratory 

post-game 

liplock

this year, 

though 

- why? 

Happy New Year, BOSTON!

And may it be a good one...

For the Celtics! 

The Patriots!

The Revolution?

The... Red Sox?!?

And then there's... the Bruins!

... that's TITLE TOWN to you - pipsqueak! 

Did we forget anyone...?

The Pops? 
The... er... Lacrosse team?!? 
(whatstheirname) 
OH --- DARN! 
The Blades!!!
