Not that we’ve been deprived of our proper share of such fun over the annals, mind you.<br /> We’ve had money wars ranging from the entertaining (Bird &amp; Yaz) to the sorrowful (Bobby Orr) by way of the merely ridiculous (Derek Sanderson, Hawk Harrelson, Irving Fryar) and the ruinous (Brothers Lynn, Fisk &amp; Burleson) ad nauseam.</p><p><a href="http://www.dotnews.com/columns/2010/about-tom-brady-s-contract-umpires-and-major-houk">read more</a></p> Thu, 29 Jul 2010 08:00:00 -0400 http://www.dotnews.com/2010/august-program-highlights <p><strong>August Program Highlights</strong></p> <div class="og_rss_groups"></div><p><a href="http://www.dotnews.com/2010/august-program-highlights" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Thu, 29 Jul 2010 08:00:00 -0400 http://www.dotnews.com/2010/foreclosures-pace-eclipse-high-08-levels <div class="field field-type-text field-field-byline"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> Michael Norton State House News Service </div> </div> </div> <p>Fueled by persistently high unemployment rates, completed foreclosures surged 56.7 percent over the first half of the year, placing foreclosures on pace to surpass their recent high in 2008, according to figures released Tuesday morning. </p><p><a href="http://www.dotnews.com/2010/foreclosures-pace-eclipse-high-08-levels">read more</a></p> Thu, 29 Jul 2010 08:00:00 -0400 http://www.dotnews.com/2010/hart-says-legislative-inaction-costing-us-dearly-voters <div class="field field-type-text field-field-byline"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> Jim O’Sullivan, State House News Service </div> </div> </div> <p>A gambling bill accord this week appeared unlikely, as Senate Democrats ratcheted up criticism of their House counterparts and the Senate demanded a Wednesday night deadline for a deal they could send to full votes in both chambers.</p><p><a href="http://www.dotnews.com/2010/hart-says-legislative-inaction-costing-us-dearly-voters">read more</a></p> Thu, 29 Jul 2010 08:00:00 -0400 http://www.dotnews.com/columns/2010/revenge-best-served-cold <p>It has become a yearly rite of passage in this space to express great indignation whenever our beloved neighborhood gets passed over on some foolish “Best of Boston” list.

This production marks the fifth year of an award-winning summer partnership between the school and the Huntington Theatre Company.</p> <div class="og_rss_groups"></div><p><a href="http://www.dotnews.com/2010/codman-academy-actors-meet-bard-summer-theatre" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Thu, 29 Jul 2010 08:00:00 -0400
