Can 2011 be the year that three or even four banners are raised in Boston? The New England Patriots look nearly unbeatable silencing critics with a 14-2 record. The Celtics are off to a scorching start as always with a 24-7 record, but health still remains as a concern for the team. The Red Sox have to be the new favorites to win the World Series after the monster additions of Carl Crawford and Adrian Gonzalez. Adding these two guys with an already stacked lineup makes this team very scary, not to mention the elite pitching staff Terry Francona puts out there everyday. The Boston Bruins are back to playing great hockey carrying a 20-11-6 record which is good for first place in the Northeast division. The Bruins have answered the bell after many fans and executives thought head coach Claude Julien was on his way out by taking eight points on the road out of a possible ten.
It is great to be in Beantown. This city has the ability to do something special and this dream can become a reality. The duckboats need to get their engines ready because in two months it could be the start of a very long tourney for their drivers with the Patriots making moves toward Dallas, the Celtics taking care of the Eastern Conference, the Bruins becoming relevant again, and the Red Sox assembling potentially one of the best lineups in baseball since murder's row in the Bronx.
Greatness
