So now it is know that the Los Angeles Clippers owner, Donald Sterling, is a very racist person and made some very bad comments towards the black community.
Sterling's comments made towards the black were some words that should not be told on the internet. The comments were made in a phone call with his girlfriend as she recorded the whole conversation.
When asked the meet with Sterling about the comments he made toward the black commuinity, current Clippers head coach, Doc Rivers, declind to meet with him.
When asked if he would leave the Los Angeles Clippers orginization Doc Rivers did really have too much to say. In protesty of what Sterling said and the comments he made the Los Angeles Clippers turned theeir warm-ups inside out to not in any way show their logo.
The Miami Heat followed the Clippers lead and lastnight and they turned their warmups inside out too show their support and made it known that comments like that will not be acceptable or tolerated by blacks or whites around America.
Blacks and whites are suppose to be equal and it's not Sterling's Staples Center to keep blacks out of.
Signs were brought to the game aw well as the warm-up inside out protest.
LA will continue their series against Golden State and hope to pull out a win.

The downfall of R.A. Dickey
R.A. Dickey is one of the best knuckball pitchers in the game and this year hopes to rebound from a horrid season last year in Toronto after they went out and aquired a bunch of assests in guys like Melkey Cabrera, Jose Reyes, Josh Johnson to name a few guys.
The Blue Jays are entering this season with not much to lose after finishing in the near basement of the AL East last year and really struglling to get bye at all points in the season.
The Blue Jays pitching last year was seemingly to be loaded with guys like Mark Buehrle, Josh Johnson, Ricky Romero and Drew Hutchinson.
The Blue Jays are entering this year in some serious competition with the Red Sox who are the raigning Wold Series champions and who really have nothing to prove as others try and knock them off their pedistol.
The Red Sox enter this year as the favorite to repeat and with quality and quanity in the pitching rotation the Sox look like a lock to lead the league in wins and lead the league in WHIP while they will be posting the lowest ERA in MLB history in perfection to win another WS title which will be their 4th in 10 years. The Red Sox in my opinion are primed and lubed up to make another miracoulous playoff run this year.

Fire
http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/2014/03/26/boston-fire-officials-today-sad-day-the-city-boston/DlVpAULn1JV2OKbSRIszxI/story.html
This story means a lot to me. This is the story about the two Boston firefighters responding to a fire which was in a huge living complex. It was a nine-alarm fire and two Boston firefighters lost their life when they were trying to save the people. This is one of the biggest tragic things to happen in Boston since the Marathon Bombings last year out-side of Fenway Park at the finish line.
The Marathon Bombins was such a huge even in Boston because it took the people and police of Boston like two days to find the Knarnov brothers who were responsible for the bombings. One that was responsible for the bombings was run over at night in the wake of running from the cops.
The Marathon Bombings killed three people compared to the first killing two.
After the first, Boston Strong was very prominant in the air after the big fire. It took so much courage for the firefighters to risk their life to save others.

Matty D's Bracket
Matty D came into the first day of March Madness with a so-called "perfect bracket". So you may wonder what happened to his bracket. Matt DeJesus has no explanation about his bracket.
Boyle says "It looks like Mardarida picked his bracket." Boyle continued, "Honestly who picks Kansas to win the National Championship?"
This is Kansas' like sixth straight year in the tournament in which they have chocked and were unable to get what they want in the national championship.
Kansas never seems to get their players like when Paul Pierce left the team.
Pierce was the emotional and spiritual leader of Kansas. Once Pierce was drafter he went right to the Celtics and played a stellar career when he was on Boston. Pierce before leaving the Celtics passed Larry Bird in all-time points. Pierce was traded to the Nets in the off season for a first round pick. Pierce exited the Celtics along with future hall of famer, Kevin Garnett.

What can Peavy do?
This is the first season the Red Sox will have starter, Jake Peavy for a whole full-season and they're expecting big things from the righty.
Peavy had a pretty good season for the Red Sox and Chicago White Sox last season and was one of the big pick-ups the Red Sox made in the middle of the season.
The Red Sox acquired Jake Peavy mid-year to help bolster a staff that already consisted of Jon Lester, Clay Buccholz, Felix Doubront. The addition of Peavy just adds to the solid Red Sox staff which was already one of the top staffs in the MLB.
The addition of Peavy is one of the best moves that the Red Sox have ever made. The move is one of the best moves the Red Sox could have made in season because by adding another pitcher it gave them the ability to move Doubrount to the 5th man or not even have to start him if they don't need him.
Once Peavy finally won the Word Series in 2013 with the Red Sox he really showed his Red Sox pride in going out in purchasing a duck boat to drive around town and be one of the first ever to purchase a duck boat.
The Red Sox are starting the 2014 season with a what looks like a very solid team. The Red Sox hope to repeat their 2013 run that landed them a World Series title. The Red Sox will open the 2014 season against the Baltimore Orioles when they send Jon Lester to the mound who will be followed by Buchholz, Lackey, Peavy and Dounront in any order. Ryan Dempster is saying he is going to take a season off which will leave the Red Sox with a five-man rotation.

Player analysis: Alex Hassan
Coming into this season the Red Sox are not too sure what to expect out of their outfield. They have the Flying Hawain who is expected to be manning right field and then left field seems to he locked down by a platoon of Johnny Gomes and Daniel Nava. The center field position seems to be an open competition between Grady Sizemore and Jackie Bradley Jr. after the loss of Jacoby Ellsbury, who went to the Yankees, this last offseason.
The Red Sox may be looking to make some in season call-ups and one of those could be outfield Alex Hassan who has some very good power and is a very underrated player in the Red Sox farm system.
Hassan is down there with Bryce Brentz and both are seemingly going to compete with each other for the in-season or close to end of season call-up for the Red Sox. With injuries in the history of Sizemore and Victornio it is most likely the Red Sox if they don't make a trade will have to rely on their farm system this year.

Red Sox upcoming season
Many people don't know what to expect from the Red Sox in the upcoming 2014 season. The Red Sox are coming off a miracoulous 2013 season after winning the 2013 Word Series.
The Red Sox have made some key additions and let some core players go. The Red Sox have added key players like A.J. Pierzynski, Edward Mujica along with going out and trading for utility infielder Jonathan Herrera in a trade with the Colorado Rockies. The Sox are banking on the facts that young guys Will Middlebrooks, Jackie Bradley Jr. and Xander Boagerts will rise up to their potential and fill the voids left in the field.
It looks like Stephen Drew and his agent Scott Boras will be out of Boston by the srart of the season as they still weren't able to come to a deal. With Jacoby Ellsbury gone to the Yankees the Sox will rely on Shane Victornio to hold down the fort in center and possibly the leadoff hitter.
Boston's first opponent as they open up the season will be in Baltimore against the fighting Orioles who loaded up on Nelson Cruz and Ubaldo Jimenez giving up two draft picks for the two. Boston will likely send ace lefty, Jon Lester to the mound for the first game of the year.
