Bob Lobel: The Dark Matter of Boston Sports

By Bob Lobel (@boblobel)

One of the great mysteries of the universe is the dark matter that seems to hold all things together. 

Here on this part of the planet we are very unaccustomed to dark matter, which is now surrounding our boys in Boston uniforms. I mean really. It's crazy how the Bruins and Celtics seem to have mirrored each other in their front office building plan. Seems like their theory has been taken from the Red Sox handbook.

Chapter one: Throw money at the problem. 

Bob Lobel: A Loss of Olympic Proportions

By Bob Lobel (@boblobel)

There was a ridiculous question floating out there yesterday, suggesting it would be possible to find a scenario to actually fire Bill Belichick! 

Hey, it's possible. Anyone could get the axe. In this case the deed would have to be extremely egregious. It seems it would have to be a vile act of lawlessness outside the purview of football. Yes, he is hated by everyone everywhere, except here.  

Jealousy and envy have a long reach. This question about BB getting a pink slip is ridiculous, but for one exception, in my opinion:  He would have had to be coaching the Green Bay Packers Sunday. 

Lobel's Question of the Week: The Olympics in Boston?

Every week, legendary sportscaster Bob Lobel wants to hear your opinion on something that caught his eye over the weekend.

Boston is always Strong, but now we're faced with a choice that could end up being Boston Smart or Boston Stupid: Should our fine city host the 2024 Summer Olympic Games?

Boston was chosen as America's representative to pitch to the Olympic Committee, and many out there think it has a good shot to win the bid.

But, do you want to see the Games in the Hub?
