OUR Opinions

THANK YOU, BOB DELEO

It’s hard to believe that it has been 10 years since Winthrop/ Forum Revere State Rep. Bob DeLeo was elected the Speaker of the House by his colleagues. (Yes, time flies.) We wish to make note of the 10th anniversary of Speaker DeLeo’s ascension to that post because it was marked by two significant events that occurred in January, 2009. First, Bob was chosen by his colleagues after a succession of House Speakers had been forced to resign because of various scandals, the last having been Sal DiMasi, who was indicted on corruption charges by federal prosecutors for which DiMasi eventually was convicted and sentenced to time in federal prison. The second was that Bob assumed the Speakership amidst the greatest economic downturn to face not only Massachusetts, but the entire country (and the world) since the Great Depression. Needless to say, January of 2009 was a difficult period for anyone to become Speaker of the House, given the history of the House during the previous decade and the enormity of the challenges that the state was facing. However, from the perspective of looking back over the past 10 years, it is fair to say that Bob DeLeo has been more respon- sible both for restoring the people’s faith in our legislature and for guiding our state through an incredibly-difficult fiscal period than any other person in state government. LETTERS to the Editor Governors have come and gone, as have State Senate pres- idents, but the one constant has been the steady hand of Bob WE NEED A MORE able to everybody else.

The Lady Vikings surrendered a pair of goals 49 seconds apart in the final minutes of the first period, and that put the Lady Vikings in a hole from which they could not escape, as Winthrop dropped a 5-3 decision to visiting Belmont Monday night, Jan. 28, at Larsen Rink in a game that saw officials whis- tle 14 penalties on the night. Belmont’s Maggie O’Connor and Kendall Whalen broke the scoring ice with 2:32 and 1:43, respectively, remaining on the first period clock. Winthrop scratched back quickly to start the second period when Bella Perotti scored an unassisted goal, sliding a loose puck under the pads of Belmont goalie Amanda Hanley 28 seconds into the second period. Belmont came right back on a Megan Noone goal with at the five-minute mark of the period, then moved out to a 4-1 lead with 2:10 left. Both goals came within 20 seconds after Winthrop killed off penal- ties. Winthrop pulled within two goals with 10:24 left in the game when on an Emma Carleton goal, assisted by Brooke Costin. But Belmont answered less than a minute later on a unassisted goal by Jordan Lettiere. The Vikings kept in interesting with 3:43 left when Mia Martucci scored, assisted by Abby Stafford and Emma Carleton, to make it 5-3. Winthrop had their chanc- es, as Belmont was whistled for four penalties in the final seven minutes. At one point, Winthrop skated a 6-3 advantage after pulling goaltender Summer Tallent, but it was all for naught as Belmont survived with the 5-3 win.
