Boston Loves Joe Kelly

As I have discussed in the past, I have no use for Boston sports, or their politics. That changed a few nights ago when Joe Kelly rightly went after a Yankee thug.

Boston's hockey team had a playoff game tonight. At one point, the crowd at the Boston Garden started to see video on the jumbotron of the Yankees/Red Sox brawl which had taken place in Boston nights before. The crowd may not have known what was happening, but being that they hate anything related to New York, they politely cheered. Then, the camera went live inside the arena and there was Joe Kelly in attendance. In one of my favorite sports moments ever, the hockey crowd went nuts and started giving Kelly a standing ovation. It ended with chants of "Yankees suck! Yankees suck!"

It was outstanding.
