Fenway Park Pictures: Braves In Boston
A little trivia for you. Did you know that the Atlanta Braves not only were originally from Boston, but they were originally called the Boston Red Stockings and are one of the two remaining original National League Teams, the other team being the Chicago Cubs. The original Boston Red Stockings team and its successors can lay claim to being the oldest continuously playing team in American professional sports. It was in 1907 when the now known Braves gave up the name “Red Stockings,” which was then quickly picked up by the American League Boston Red Sox. So take that Red Sox fans and your tradition!

Rollercoaster Review and Marketing Lessons: Six Flags New England

Mass Effect: Video Game Review
I spent the better part of the last three weekends playing a role playing game (RPG) by the name of Mass Effect. All I can say is WOW! This is by no means a new or recent game as it came out the end of 2007 and has won its fair share of game awards including The New York Times Game of the year. Needless to say I dropped close to 40 hours on the game. And it really cut into my productivity time especially on the weekends, but wow, what an experience. I’m such a sucker for sci-fi as my review of Battlestar Galactica will attest. The makers of Mass Effect, Bioware, have made a few amazing RPGs before this one like the amazing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, but everything about this game spoke of an epic. The story was top notch, the exploration,...
