The Basement, It's Called Bruins

Today, amid tons of excitement on the Boston sports scene, fans pretty much summed up the Bruins place in the happenings. The Boston Globe website offered this pole question. "Which Boston team will end up having the most buzz, Redsox-Celtics-Patriots-or Bruins? It was close early, but the Redsox have a commanding lead in the pole as of now with around 60%. The Celts and Pats are really close, with around 20% each. In last are the Bruins with, get this, 1.9%. If they added the New England Revolution, they would probably beat the Bruins. Hell, if you added the Ringling Brothers circus, it would probably beat the Bruins. All three other Boston teams have one thing in common, they do what it takes to field a winner, granted the Celtics took their time doing it, but they still got it done. The Bruins could never make a deal comparable to the KG move, since trading their entire roster probably wouldnt be seen as enough compensation. Soon, the seats in the Garden may be green and white rather than yellow and black since the Celtics will dominate ticket sales this season before even setting foot on the floor. Manny Fernandez just doesnt generate that kind of buzz, suprised?
