Just hours after Julian Edelman announced his retirement from the NFL Monday, Tom Brady posted a heartfelt message to his former teammate.
The message, which was posted to Brady’s Instagram, accompanied a slideshow of the duo on and off the field:
As I was writing this note, Vivi saw the first picture and said “daddy, tell Julian to cut his beard, I don’t like it”...which of course Jules, she never did like it....but you know who did...Me!! Because it meant you were locked in and it was playoff time. That was when you shined the most. On the biggest stage and in the biggest moments, you always came through. I was a witness to so much of the journey and am so proud of you and how you grew from 7th round underdog to an older 7th round underdog. The truth is, you never really grew up 😂😂! You never lost that chip on your shoulder. You never let anyone define you as a person or player. You have so many teammates that admired your work ethic and will to win, and I am at the top of the list because when I was down and feeling sorry for myself at times, you were right there to pick me up. You were as tough as could be and I love you for all that you did to make our teams as great as they could possibly be.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (WBZ NewsRadio) — The Red Sox-Minnesota Twins game was postponed Monday afternoon in response to a police shooting in the Minneapolis area on Sunday.
Police in Brooklyn Center, a suburb of Minneapolis, shot and killed 20-year-old Daunte Wright during a traffic stop Sunday afternoon. Police called the shooting an "accidental discharge" Monday, saying the officer had meant to use her taser, not her handgun.
The shooting sparked violent unrest overnight.
The Minnesota Twins released a statement on Twitter that said they were postponing the game "out of respect for the tragic events" around 20 minutes after the teams were set to take the field on Monday afternoon.

CONCORD, N.H. (
WBZ NewsRadio) — The clock is ticking for New Hampshire residents to book a Covid-19 vaccination appointment before their neighbors to the south do.
Starting next Monday, April 19, anyone over the age of 16 can sign up to get the Covid-19 vaccine in the granite state, including people who live in other states.
New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu said residents still have a week left to book their appointment before the state expands eligibility.
"We really encourage folks to [sign up]," he said. "It's such an easy process to do, and that's just allowing us to get the vaccine out that much faster, and open up opportunity for everyone else."

Well I knew that some way Mark Wahlberg was connected to my new gym obsession "F45" but with his new show on HBO Max's "Wahl Street" looks like I'm about to find out how much!
Dorchester native Mark Wahlberg is going to take us behind the scenes of his life and navigating his many business ventures during this global pandemic. The series will be six episodes where not only we get a little behind the scenes of his real life, but also a few business and life lessons along the way. Episodes start dropping April 15th!
I'm EXCITED! Before I moved to Boston my friends in WMASS had opened the first F45 gym in the state. Loved the workout, but then I moved and slowly I started noticing them pop up all over the east. In December a studio opened up close to our studios in Medford and I can't get enough! Just watch my Instagram on the daily ... I'm there about five times a week!

Office of the Child Advocate
BOSTON (WBZ NewsRadio) — The Office of the Child Advocate has released a scathing new report on the death of a Fall River teenager who was found neglected and abused in his home last year.
The report places much of the blame on the local and state agencies who were supposed to look after him.
Fall River Police found 14-year-old David Almond dead in a Green Street home in October of 2020. David, who lived with autism and developmental disabilities, weighed about 80 pounds, was emaciated, and was covered in feces, cuts and bruises. Two other children, including David's triplet brother Michael, were also found in the home.

“Forkability,” “sauceability,” “toothsinkability” – do these words mean anything to you?
For one podcaster and food-based inventor, these were the key ingredients in a three-year year pursuit for pasta perfection.
Dan Pashman, food connoisseur and host of The Sporkful podcast, created Cascatelli (“waterfalls” in Italian), drawing inspiration from the classic pasta shapes of pipe-like bucatini and ruffled malfade. Pasta company Sfoglini, which produces the pasta in their Hudson Valley, NY pasta factory, describes Cascatelli as half-tube troughs with twin ruffles for holding sauce and right angles for resistance to bite from all angles.
It’s this unique shape that, Sfoglini claims, delivers maximum “forkability” (how easy it is to get the pasta on the fork and keep it there), sauceability (how well the pasta shape holds sauce), and “toothsinkability” (how satisfying it is to bite into).
