Thurs. June 17

Not too much doubt about where you're going to be around 9 tonight is there? In front of some hi-def, hi-res screen - maybe at home, maybe in a sports bar - watching (with confidence or nervousness) our Green team go up against the dreaded purple and gold. Will the Celtics from Game 5 or Game 6 show up? The Red Sox have bumped their game against the No Illegal Mexicans Allowed Diamondbacks to 6, making it more likely you can get yourself planted somewhere for the opening tip-off. Now, if you're in the Fenway area, you've got three good choices; Game on!, the Caskn 'n Flagon and Jerry Remy’s Sports Bar & Grill, which has been getting great reviews for food and TV. And so, we are happy to report you can go to Remy's and pay money like you might for a real game in the stands ($127) and get an open bar/buffet and take it all it with like-minded C-fans. The private party format is similar to many restaurant & bars New Year’s Eve parties. No riff-raff, y'know. The guest list - wait, is it a guest list if you're paying? - will be capped at 300. Tickets must be purchased in advance by calling the number below. Doors open an hour before the game (8) and the open bar remains open a half-hour past the game so you can celebrate or drown your sorrows as the case may be. Does JSInk truly have an inkling how this will go down? No. The radically different games we've seen so far have left us with no clue as to how this'll go. All we can say is we expect to see a little more fire in the belly of the Boston boys then we did Tuesday night where it truly seemed like they were playing in anticipation of a Game 7. Note: Remy's is in the old spot WBCN used to occupy and you'd never know from all the work. That means there are a few 'BCN ghosts lingering about too. Happy ones we hope. (in photo: Kevin Garnett, just one of the players the teams hopes rest upon.)
