Nothing lasts forever, certainly not an unbeaten NBA season. The Boston Celtics lost for the first time this season on Friday, dropping a 110-103 decision to the Phoenix Suns, who lost their first game on Wednesday. For a close game, the Suns were in control most of the way. The NBA's top two shooting teams didn't disappoint the crowd. The Celtics shot 51.7% from the field. Phoenix finished 13-24, or 54.2%, on three-pointers.

                     

Like we said on Monday, the New England Revolution came through with a win against the Chicago Fire in their first MLS playoff game of the season on Sunday. Bostonist was there to watch and came away with a couple of photos. The Revs face Chicago again on Saturday, this time in the Windy City. Play was sloppy at times in the first match. Though the first goal was made on a sweet header by Emmanuel Osei, the team's second goal (by Shalrie Joseph) came only after what seemed like hours of muddled chaos in front of the net. Let's hope the team can pull it together this weekend with some strong passing and smart shots.

Bostonist was walking past the hustle and bustle of Fenway Park on Friday afternoon when we finally identified that nagging feeling that had been with us ever since the Park Street station. We had seen more Baltimore Orioles jerseys, hats and T-shirts in an hour than we saw all day when we traveled to Camden Yards last season! What was going on? Everyone knows that the orange-accented Baltimore ballpark is known fondly in Red Sox...

While the world readies for the final match of the FIFA World Cup, Boston gets ready to watch it. The French and Italians will match up on Sunday afternoon – and everyone has an opinion on where the best place to watch the game will be. Mayor Menino has sanctioned a World Cup Party of sorts on City Hall Plaza this Sunday. A big screen broadcast of the match will have capacity to hold up...

Last week the teams-named-for- historical-episodes battled it out in Foxboro, and the New England Revolution put Chicago’s Fire out. Bostonist was left thinking to ourselves wouldn’t it have been hilarious if the “molasses flood” put the fire out. Well, that and it’s like the World Series of soccer. Well, almost the World Series of soccer, if we discount the World Cup, Euro Cup, the European Premier leagues, the South American leagues, and just about any...
