Wednesday was a pretty awful day to be a Boston sports fan. On the same night that the Celtics blew a 14-point fourth quarter lead to the Bucks in Game Five of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, the Red Sox blew a three-run lead of their own and got walked-off by the Braves. Oh yeah, and then the Bruins got pummeled, 5-1 by the Hurricanes the previous night (though they made up for it Thursday).
The Sox and Celtics play again tonight and I’d be lying if I told you that I’m at all optimistic about how either of those teams will do.
