Today's sports fan challenge is brought to you from my deck

OK not a great night for Boston last night.  Bruins went down in the final minute to Vancouver in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup finals.  What a heartbreaker.  The Red Sox were swept by the White Sox and are now 2 games behind the Yankees in the AL East and the Rays are only a half game behind.

As I mentioned I am going to wear a piece of of clothing every day from a sports team or individual that I support (for the original post click here).  Today the Red Sox and Bruins have a day off and there aren't any other teams that I support that are playing today.  Both teams lost so the questions is which team should I wear today? 

My answer is both since I beleive that as atrue fan they need the support also when they are down.  So today I will wear both Red Sox and Bruins gear to support them in their tough losses yesterday.  Here are some pics from my morning coffee on my roof deck.  What a beautiful sunny day here in Beantown!

Aussie Ryan Gregson one of the best in the world for the 1500m

This morning I was browsing through the IAAF top lists which shows the fastest times for various athletics races for 2011 and saw that Ryan Gregson from Australia is the 6th fastest in the 1500 for 2011!   Not bad for Australia and promising for next year's Olympics!

Movin on - whats on in sports today

Last night was so disappointing for the Bruins with the Canucks scoring in the last minute to win 1-0.  But today I am moving on and looking forward to Sat night and Game 2.

But there is a lot happening in sports today that I will be following including:

French Open women's semis on right now!!  Watching Sharpova v Li Na at the moment.  Later on Bartoli v Schiavone. Would love to see Schiavone repeat, so many thought she would be a one major wonder.

In the PGA the Memorial Tournament starts today, lots of big name players including a host of Aussies (8 in the field) are teeing off.  I will be keeping a close eye on the leader board throughout the day.

Game 2 of the NBA finals is on tonight at 9pm.  Hoping for a Mavs win but got to admit the Heat look very strong at the right time of the year.

Our cat is a big Maria Sharapova fan

OK enough messing around with baseball...

Expecting Chara to dominate tonight.  Push around those Sedin boys like rag dolls.  Tonight I am going to stick with what worked at the end of the Tampa Bay series - watch the games at home!



Love the Red Sox day games during the week!

These games are perfect for me as I am not working.  Just caught the end of the game which I watched in my new A-Gon t- shirt.  Not a great series for the Red Sox who were swept by the White Sox.

Stanley Cup Game 1 only hours away!

GO BRUINS!!!!

Every Wednesday I volunteer at the Red Cross food distribution center in Boston.  Such a great organization that distributes bags of food to low income families in the area.  We pack bags of vegetables, meat, canned goods and dried goods and hand them out in the morning.  On average around 500 families are served every Wednesday.

Looking for a ray of sunshine to lie in.
