Well, that weekend went by fast, eh?
We hope you had a nice weekend, as well as enjoyed the Super Bowl, too – what an exciting finish by the Kansas City Chiefs!
Today should be somewhat mild for early February – per the latest reports, we could reach (or over around) 50 degrees in the Boston area, which makes us even more excited for warmer weather ahead.
In the meantime, have a great morning/day, get an extra cup of coffee later – you may need it! – and remember to smile and laugh!
The Boston Sports Scoreboard
- Both the Boston Bruins and Boston Celtics were idle yesterday, but the Green and White will return to the hardwood this evening when they visit the Atlanta Hawks with tip-off scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
