-- Now that he owes $675k for downloading Nine Inch Nails, maybe Joel Tenenbaum has second thoughts about his pro-bono Harvard lawyer.

Everybody's still alive. But for very different reasons. Bostonist covered the Celtics and the Bruins live, and they won. Now let's try to figure out why.

Playing in New Jersey can suck the life out of even the best of teams. Even the vaunted '86 Celtics lost there twice. And last night, the vaunted '09 Celtics were minutes away from dropping their second straight game.

When the new Celtic stepped onto the parquet at the TD Banknorth Garden on Friday night, the response from the Boston crowd was clear. Welcome to Boston, Mr. Marbury. Let's get to winning another title.

Right after Christmas, you may remember, the Celtics struggled for a couple weeks, got their feet under them, then went on a blowout binge. Is that happening to the Bruins now? Sure looks like it.

It's nearly official. The New York Times reports that Stephon Marbury will be wearing kelly green as early as tomorrow night, when the Celtics take on the Pacers. Is this the beginning of a Randy Moss-style rehabilitation or of the end of the Celtics' chances to repeat? [NYTimes]

Have the Celtics landed their man? And how do we feel about this?

For all the Bruins' success this year, they hadn't figured out a way to beat Washington. The Capitals were 2-0 against our hometown heroes, and nipping (well...10 points behind) at their heels for top spot in the East.

This week, Phillyist saw the waters of a landmark fountain run red for a Showtime marketing stunt, the Phils pull ahead, and some serious nostalgia. They also got a chance to review an awesome tribute album, reminded folks to see the King and appreciated their beautiful skyline. Chicagoist knows what it's like to like the Cubs. But naming your kid Wrigley Fields? At least they can breathe a little easier now that Grossman's out and...

Protest over national vs. regional chains, the never-ending debate over the place of cars and bicycles in our metropolises, professional sports scandals, remembering a solemn day, and being issued a search warrant - it all happened across our sites this week! Another banner week at Chicagoist started off with daily reports from food writer Lisa Shames on her attempt to eat only locally grown and raised foodstuffs all week as part of a farmers market...

With unseasonable weather descending upon much of North America, schools getting ready to reconvene, and sports seasons getting exciting, it's a busy time of year for us here in the Ist-A-Verse. Luckily, even with all the things we have to do, we still managed to get together to let you know what we've all been up to. After cooling down from a hot weekend of many badass Sunset Junction Street Fair photo dispatches, LAist asked...

Cedric "Cornbread" Maxwell, Celtics basketball announcer and breakfast-lover, apologized publicly last night for saying female NBA referee Violet Palmer needed to "go back to the kitchen." Maxwell stepped up and said he was sorry. He didn't get all whiny about it. However, Maxwell's defenders seem to be the whiny ones. WBZ' Chuck McKenney felt the need to do the whining for Maxwell. He heard the tape, and he wrote, "The comment was nothing like it...
