Share this: The Boston Celtics and New York Knicks will look the part Sunday when they kick off a special slate of NBA Christmas Day games. The teams will face off at Madison Square Garden, wearing special uniforms. The chest lettering features the type of script one sees on holiday cards. Designers also didn’t spare the use of Celtics’ and Knicks’ signature colors. If the uniform design looks familiar, you’re on to something. Adidas used the same template for last year’s Christmas Day games.

Cowboys Clinch NFC East Title, Home Field In Playoffs After Giants Lose To Eagle…
Share this: The road to the Super Bowl for the NFC will go through AT&T Stadium. The Dallas Cowboys clinched the NFC East title and home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs as a result of the New York Giants losing 24-19 to the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday night. It remains to be seen if the Cowboys will rest any of their important players with nothing left to clinch over the final two weeks of the regular season. Maybe backup quarterback Tony Romo will take some snaps to make sure he’s ready if needed in the playoffs. The loss drops the Giants to 10-5, but they still are the favorite for the first wild card (No. 5 seed) in the NFC playoffs. Besides, going on
Bruins Score Big Win Vs. Panthers But Still Have Room To Improve
Share this: The Boston Bruins rebounded from Tuesday night’s loss to the New York Islanders with a 3-1 win over the Florida Panthers on Thursday night. The B’s got goals from Frank Vatrano, Patrice Bergeron, and David Backes, while Tuukka Rask was stellar in net with 29 saves. “I thought we handled it well, but we can handle it better,” coach Claude Julien told NESN’s Jack Edwards and Andy Brickley on “Bruins Overtime Live.” “Overall, I thought we had a decent game and a pretty good game against a team there that thought the game was just as important as we did.” Hear more from Julien in the video above.

Bill Belichick Loves Malcolm Butler’s Competitiveness In Patriots’ Defense
Share this: FOXBORO, Mass. — New England Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler had one of his weakest games of the season last month against the New York Jets, when he allowed six catches on six targets for 106 yards and two touchdowns. So, it would be shocking if Butler wasn’t a little extra motivated to shut down Brandon Marshall, Quincy Enunwa and Robby Anderson in this week’s rematch against the Jets. “Very competitive; Malcolm’s really competitive. It really bothers him when a guy catches a ball on him, and that’s the kind of attitude you want to have from a defensive back,” Patriots head coach Bill Belichick said Thursday. “When they do catch it they want to make a real hard tackle and

Brandon Marshall Admits Idea Of Joining Patriots Would Be ‘Intriguing’
Share this: Is Brandon Marshall headed for the New England Patriots? Probably not, but he wouldn’t say no to the idea. The New York Jets wide receiver’s 11th season in the NFL is ending with a thud, as his team sits at 4-10 with just two games left to go this season. That means Marshall will retain his career-long postseason drought, which is the longest of any active player. For that reason, the New York Daily News’ Manish Mehta wrote that Marshall should join the Patriots should the Jets cut him to free up salary. The 32-year-old wideout didn’t hate the idea, but there is a catch. “That’s intriguing, but that wouldn’t be my team,” Marshall told Mehta. “I would be a rental player.” With 12,033
