The Bruins start their quest for Lord Stanley's Cup tonight. The Red Sox are in first place. And the Patriots added a big-name bench-warmer to the roster.

Boston Globe "Fresh on the job as Bruins coach, Don Cherry at first wasn’t sure what to make of the heated shenanigans that evening at Chicago Stadium. It was only a preseason game, yet there was legendary Boston defenseman Bobby Orr, typically with emotions in control, trading nasty high sticks with Stan Mikita, the Black Hawks’ iconic centerman, four-time NHL scoring leader, and future Hall of Famer."

ESPN "Rivers, who has been attending the Celtics' pre-draft workouts, is unsure of what he wants to do and has not yet ruled out returning to Boston for a 10th season. He has a very close relationship with Ainge, and the source said that is one factor that is making his decision so difficult."

The Onion "Following news that free agent quarterback Tim Tebow was acquired by the New England Patriots, sources close to the organization told reporters Tuesday that they expect the high-profile signing to at long last draw some media attention to the oft-ignored football franchise."
