CELTICS ONE AWAY FROM 17!

I pretty much woke up the entire neighborhood tonight as the Celtics beat the Lakers to take a 3-1 lead in the NBA finals. Being a longtime Celtics fan, even when it was Jiri Welsch, Kenny Anderson, Gerald Green (out of the league already?) and tons of other no name players - role players - starting every night... this was unbelievable.

The Celtics staged a comeback most thought was impossible tonight.. but I'm not writing because of that. I'm writing to give people that I criticize (I am a certified basketball ref) on a nightly basis credit. THEY STAYED OUT AND DID NOT IMPACT THE FINAL OUTCOME OF THE GAME. They didn't fall for Kobe Bryant's acting jobs..he should be an actor after he retires from basketball, and they called a fair game down the stretch. I was impressed by the officials tonight, as they let a comeback happen that most of us if asked thought they would have stopped with calls against the Celtics when nothing was happening.

Additionally to that, EDDIE HOUSE AND JAMES POSEY CAME TO PLAY. I've been calling for EHouse to play for most of the playoffs. Most other players wouldn't bring their A game in a situation like this.. but Eddie did. Clutch shots and excellent passing for Rondo tonight.. EHouse came up big! Ray Allen played all 48 minutes tonight, and has been very consistent throughout the finals playing well. ROLE PLAYERS WON THIS GAME FOR THE CELTICS. A deep bench wins games, and that was evident tonight.

Let's Go Celtics... bring home #17 from LA baby! Beat LA baby... and make sure you listen to the show tomorrow night on i98.3.

American Idol?

That's Taylor Hicks on Broadway.... this guy was an American Idol? Damn.

Make sure you keep it locked for the 8:00 hitlist and hot or not tonight - plus more chances to win tickets to Six Flags all this week at 7, 11, 3 and 6 on i98.3!

ANOTHER MILEY PIC...

Another new Miley Cyrus photo today... and no i'm not obsessed with Miley, it's just funny how this star has everyone in the world (including my 14-year old sister) looking up to her and all this stuff continues to come out on a day by day basis... someone out there's got these pictures and is purposely trying to take her down, I think... i wonder if Tampa Bay overnight DJ is gonna steal this one...haha

ANYWAY... on the show tonight check out your chance to win CT Sun tix at 6, Mansfield drive in at 8 and hot or not at 9....and GO CELTICS!

Thanks for listening... Rivers

SOME OVERNIGHT DJ FROM TAMPA THINKS WILLI IS "SMALL-TOWN"...

So how bout this... I posted the picture of Miley Cyrus at 5:40 tonite....posted some bulletins on myspace and some overnight DJ (ya, like 3am) from a station in Tampa Bay not only posted the picture he got from me... he then went on to call Willimantic "Small-town" and me "Small-town"... i don't know about you but we aren't small town and I ain't no small town DJ either!

So there's the image this dude posted on his blog...lol. Apparently he's embarrassed that "small town" i98.3 and "small town" Rivers beat "big time" station in Tampa Bay on a pic that people wanna see.. because this picture right here shows you (ON TOP OF ME BLOGGING IT AT 5:40PM) that I posted my first bulletin (and my myspace friends will know this) at 5:59:

NOW HERE'S THE SLAMMER... MY FIRST MYSPACE BULLETIN.... AND MY SECOND MYSPACE BULLETIN - WAS IT AFTER HIS FIRST? YEAH... BUT I HAD IT AN HOUR EARLIER!

HAHA BUDDY! GOOD JOB MAN... YOU WERE A REAL DETECTIVE ON THIS PIC!

so pretty much the story is... EASTERN CONNECTICUT, we got called small town by some overnight DJ from Tampa Bay.

I'll take my "smalltown" over Tampa any day! so the deal is, no matter how small town we supposedly are, we beat the "big boys" almost every time. holla, and thanks for listening to i98.3 and my show!
