By Eric Berry As we near high school football, professional football, hunting seasons, MLB playoffs, fair times, and colder temperatures I have a few very random thoughts: It was a good summer, now it’s time to get to work. The Red Sox, at least currently, are a really good baseball team. The above statement is […]
By Eric Berry It’s hard to believe isn’t it? The narrative for all of us LeBron non-lovers(time to stop using the word hate) is that he no way would go west and play in the gauntlet that is certainly the NBA Western Conference. Considering that the 8th ranked team in the most recent playoffs, Minnesota, […]
It’s about SPACING! I’ll bet you’re thinking, uh-oh here EB goes, a rant about the officials. Nope, not where I’m going with this one. After 6 games in the Eastern Conference Finals we’ve seen some adjustments by Brad Stevens and Tyronn Lue. However, after a post season in which the press, the players, and everyone […]
By Eric Berry Sterling Brown The first thing I did this morning was play the Sterling Brown YouTube video that has gone viral. Brown, a guard for the Milwaukee Bucks, was arrested for a parking violation back in January. After watching the video, I was sick. As I write this, I am sick. The definition […]
By Eric Berry We all know where the title of this blog hailed from don’t we? Will Ferrell’s follow up cry after his off-key rendition to Kansas’ ‘Dust in the Wind’ in the movie Old School. Why did I think of that movie? Well, the correlation between what the Celtics need to do against the […]

After watching the Celtics/Cavs on Tuesday night I had that moment, the epiphany of all ye epiphanies. And here it […]
By Eric Berry I’m a bit of a sarcastic person, but you knew that anyway right? I also like to tell it like it is, which isn’t going to make some people happy. Well today, I will list some things that bother me when it comes to all things sports, sports management, or otherwise. Here […]
By Eric Berry Somewhere along the line we’ve lost our minds. I’ve coached for 29 years in a variety of different capacities, and in different sports. I have witnessed first-hand the degradation of the coach/parent relationship. I am no expert on behavioral science, I do not consider myself an “expert” coach in each in every […]
By Eric Berry At some point you must wonder what it is that Dustin Pedroia did to his knee, don’t you? Pedroia, who notoriously threw his manager, and team, under the bus last year after the whole Manny Machado incident/slide into second base/the Sox threw at Manny thing. I mean, a few years ago Adrian […]
