Returning home, the Eagles are greeted by a jubilant crowd of 100,000.” I watch the Red Sox and I am lost. The comforting voices of Rem Dawg and Eck the only familiar remnants from the last time I watched. Pre-COVID? Go Sox! How about the movie “The Friends of Eddie Coyle”? Best darn movie shot around Boston evah! Bad boy Robert Mitchum at his best. I recollect back in 1973 rumors of a movie being shot round Malden, but it wasn’t like today when Peter Caso blasts the news out over social media. The Malden scene was filmed around the Rowe’s Quarry area. Best line of the night spoken by Robert Mitchum aka Eddie “Fingers” Coyle sitting in the old Boston Garden at a Bruins game a short while before he gets ‘whacked’: “Can you imagine being a kid like that. What is he, 24 or something? Greatest hockey player in the world. Number four – Bobby Orr. Geeze, what a future he’s got, huh?” Malden makes history! Did you know that the very first same-sex partners to be legally married in Mass. were Malden’s very own Marcia Kadish and Tanya McCloskey at the Cambridge Court House in Cambridge? “Great minds think alike, though fools seldom differ.” Malden is full of great minds – a couple of fools also (some still here, some living far away), but that is a story for another time. The great minds I speak of belong to the two greatest hardball aficionados currently residing in Malden. They got about 150 years of knowledge between them and they love to share it. Thank goodness for that. This long-winded intro takes me right to the doorsteps of Steve Freker and Bob Rotondi – of course it did. I yearn for the days of Bob’s “Diamond Dust” column but am happy as a pig in slop for Steve’s offerings at The Malden Advocate. Which leads me to a piece of Malden baseball trivia which baseball junkies like Dave Cai live for. This appeared a couple of years back in Bob’s “Diamond Dust” column when it ran in the Malden Evening News. Bob and Steve put those great minds together and did some Carmine Cappuccio research, coming up with the fact that CC was drafted higher than 17-year veteran and Boston Red Sox World Series hero Derek Lowe. Incredible. Steve did an amazing series on Carmine’s baseball career and how it intertwined with the great Michael Jordan and future Sox greatest manager of all time Tito Francona. I believe the series is still available online somewhere. Thank you, gentlemen. Former City of Malden Fire Chief Jackie Colangeli’s name has been thrown into the hat as a Councillor-at-Large candidate. Great guy, that Jackie, and of course he’s from Edgeworth! If you see him out on the campaign trail, make him show you the beautiful artwork that covers just about his whole body. Crazy Good Kitchen, where have you been all my life?! Hidden in plain sight, this Eastern Avenue hamburger joint is a slice of heaven right here in Malden! My recent visit made me a very happy Maldonian! Try it! You’ll like it! I signed up for the Tous les Jours Newsletter (and you should, too). I received one today that included a picture of the TLJ Product of the Month. Something called the “Triple Berry Cloud” which includes light and airy sponge cake made with whipped cream, strawberries, blueberries and raspberry puree. The picture is a delight to the eyes. Welcome to Malden, Tous les Jours! Open your doors soon! Great to hear that local good guy Joey Crowley’s place up Route 1 (Breakaway) is back up and running with live music. Heard there was a full house for (re) opening night. Best of luck, Joe. See ya soon! This was pure ratings gold the first time around, so I had to revisit it one more time.
