Happy Birthday to the world's oldest dog, Chanel! Chanel, a dachshund, turned 21 years old today and celebrated in style. That's 147 years old in dog years for those of you wondering. She can legally drink now! She's taking a rare trip from her Port Jefferson Station home in New York to celebrate in Manhattan with some of her dog friends. Chanel's red hair faded to white a long time according to the article. How does a dog live such a long, healthy life? "She used to run three miles with me every day," said owner Denice Shaughnessy, a high-school principal's secretary who adopted Chanel from a Virginia shelter as a 6-week-old pup. "She still enjoys a walk, but now she's carried for a lot of it." Here's to a great dog, Happy Birthday Chanel!
From Best to Worst
by Conor Levis
Coming off one of the greatest playoff series we've ever seen, the Celtics played an absolute stinker at home Monday night for Game 1. It was one of the worst basketball games I've ever seen. It was the first time a team went down by 28 point in the 3rd quarter and then ended up blowing that same game in overtime. The funny thing is that when the Celtics did go down by 28 in that 3rd quarter, I wasn't worried at all. I knew we would get back in the game. We have a Magic team here that regularly blows big leads. In the first round the Magic blew two 18 point leads to the lowly Philadelphia 76ers. Earlier this season, the Magic blew leads of 21 and 16 points to the KG-less Celtics. They just don't know how to hold big leads and it's because of their style of play. When you're a team that lives and dies by the three point shot, that's the price you pay. When the Magic get hot, boy, do they get hot. The problem is that when they got hot early, eventually they have to cool off. That's what happened to them in the 2nd half on Monday in what could have been the single worst half of basketball I've seen a team play.
On the other side, even though the Celtics came all the way to cut the lead to 4, they should have won that game. There was a point in the 4th quarter when the score was tied at 6 for a good five straight possessions. Had the Celtics capitalized on even two of those possessions, they would have won the game. As well as Rajon Rondo has played this postseason, he ruined the Celtics chance to win that game with turnovers on crticial possessions during that five possession stretch. You know it's a bad game when you find yourself saying things like "Get the ball to Brian Scalabrine!" or "Doc really needs to put Stephon Marbury back in this game." Hopefully this was just a case of two teams feeling each other out but I know one thing...as a Celtics fan, I am not in the least bit worried about dropping Game 1. The same thing happened against Chicago last round and Orlando's inability to keep leads against a team that never gives up is going to kill them. Let's just hope for a better performance in Game 2.
There was nothing classic about Game 1
Unhot Bitch of the Day:
Unfortunately those days are long gone now and Kirstie has reportedly gained another 83 lbs., pushing her weight to 228 lbs! Oh well, atleast we still have those Cheers reruns on UPN 38 every night. Kirstie, you used to be hot and now your not... but your former self can still be our Hot Bitch of the Day!
