Hitting The Links: Win All The Games! Edition

by sarahconnors on Jan 23, 2012 10:43 AM EST in Hitting the Links

I can't be the only one falling asleep at my desk this morning after that 1-2 punch of New England sports awesomeness last night, can I? Well, that's happening. The Bruins are at the White House today and the Patriots are in the Super Bowl for a grudge match of awesomeness; despite extra-special Monday exhaustion and apprehension on behalf of Nathan Horton, who took a blindside hit to the head yesterday, things are looking pretty ok from here.

After the jump.....links. You know the drill.

Posted this on the game recap and don't like speculating but...

If you didn’t see it.

Horty’s wife tweeted: Everything happens for a reason right?! Just gotta trust in the universe and let it guide u.
