DOCF

Today I'm posting about a serious cause that Massachusetts Professional Sports is now supporting. It is a foundation held by a star New England athletic, David Ortiz. It is called the David Ortiz Children's fund. Its cause is to raise money for children in the Northeast cannot afford critical medical attention. David hosts many fund raisers, including golf tournaments and other events for children. This foundation has saved thousands of lives and is a great cause.

March Madness Bracketology

Coming up this thursday is one of the biggest events of the year for NCAA sports, March Madness. As you all know the new brackets for 2012 have recently came out and most basketball fans are taking part in the action this year. As for me, I've already picked my bracket and I'm going to share some of my knowledge with you. as for the south these are my picks:

Second round winners

Kentucky Vs. Uconn

Witchita St. Vs. Indiana

Unlv Vs. Baylor

Notre Dame Vs. Duke

Here are my picks for the West

Michigan St. Vs. St. Louis

New Mexico Vs. Davidson

Murray St. Vs. Marquette

Virginia Vs. Mizzuou.

These are my picks for the left side of the bracket for the first round. Not many upsets here but some possible upsets include New Mexico State over Indiana and Davidson over Louisville.

Celtics Vs Lin

The celtics got their first taste of Linsanity on sunday and defeated the Knicks in overtime. Jeremy Lin had a solid performance but in the end the celtics pulled through with some clutch shots by Paul Pierce including a 3 pointer to tie with 5 seconds left in the fourth quarter. The celtics held the lead for most of the game but Lin and the Knicks made an impresive comback late in the game but it was not enough to stop the celts. This was a key game as the celtics and knicks are both fighting for a playoff spot this season.

Whats new for the red sox

The red sox are well on their way to the season opener and have seen many changes to their roster. First and foremost Jason Varitek,the catcher and captain retired during this offseason. Another key member, Tim Wakefield retired as well.

The Sox had many pick ups this season as well. One major player the sox acquired was Cody Ross. Cody was a standout in 2010 for the Giants and helped lead them to a world series. The Sox also picked up Nick Punto, star shortstop from the Minnesota twins, but had to give up Marco Scuturo in the process. This was a questionable move because the Scuturo was a top performer last season. I believe the Red Sox have great chance to make the playoffs season if Carl Crawford and some of the Red Sox's other big names can perform up to potential this season.
