Zdeno Chara, one of two All-Star captains, selected Bruins Teammates Tim Thomas and Tyler Seguin to be part of his squad for Sunday’s NHL All Star game. Chara selected Red Wings center Pavel Datsyuk with his first overall pick, citing his enchantment with the Russian’s scoring ability and skill. The NHL All-Star game comes at a great time for the busy Boston Bruins who get a full 5 days off the rest during the break.

The Boston Celtics overcame a 27 point deficit to defeat the Orlando Magic 91-83 on Thursday night thanks to 24 points from Paul Pierce (19 in the second act) and 16 points from rookie E’Twaun Moore coming off the bench. Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo were both sidelined with injury, but the Truth came through in the clutch as he’s done so many times over the years. If Pierce can carry the team and Moore can step up his game the Celtics should not be counted out as a serious playoff contender. Despite the slow start, this Celtic team is showing encouraging traits. There aren’t many teams in the NBA that could surge back from 27 down against Dwight Howard and the Magic to win the game by 8 points.
The Red Sox are gunning for free agent starter Roy Oswalt to complete their pitching staff. Oswalt has long been one of the top pitchers in the MLB, so adding his arm could mean the difference between whether the Red Sox are a Wild Card team or World Series contender. Boston has reportedly made an offer to Oswalt and Sox management expects to hear a decision from him soon. You can read more about the Oswalt chase here.

You have probably heard “Roberto” Gronkowski’s legendary quote After Sunday’s AFC Championship game. When an ESPN Deportes reporter asked Gronk if he was going to celebrate after the game, Gronk uttered the now famous words:
Yo Soy Fiesta T-Shirt (Click Here)
We knew Gronkowski was an unstoppable Tight End on the field and a larger than life character off of it… but bilingual? No one saw that coming. Gronk literally said “I am party” and we couldn’t agree more. Gronk, you are party. You are fiesta.
The Red Sox have acquired some big help in the outfield, signing Giants OF Cody Ross to a 1 year $3 million deal. With Carl Crawford’s status in question for Opening Day and the uncertain situation in Right Field after JD Drew’s exit, a proven vet like Ross will be a welcome addition to this Red Sox team.
An emotional Robert Kraft said after Sunday’s AFC Championship victory that he believes “Myra is watching”. Kraft has had a rough year, losing his beloved wife to cancer while in the midst of settling the NFL lockout. During Myra’s final few months, Kraft said he spent 95% of his time with his “sweetheart” and the other 5% solving the lockout (only because she encouraged him to do so). The Patriots have been sporting MHK patches all year long and we would all love to see them win this one for Myra – a renownded humanitarian who was loved by all who knew her. The Kraft family deserves this Super Bowl win. Let’s hope the Patriots can go out and get it done against the Giants.
