Playing the gongs. St. Peter Academy News n Monday, May 5, Miss Chapin and the 5th graders Ofrom St. Peter Academy took part in an exciting experience at the Children’s Museum. They were invited to participate in this once in a lifetime event – the Gion Festival. This opportunity was offered to only 3 schools in the City of Boston so they were very happy to be included in this event. They were given a private tour of the Japanese House, learning what materials were used to construct it and were also given time to explore the house on their own. They were then able to enjoy a musical show performed by the Gion Festival Musicians from Kyoto, Japan. The students were able to play the drums and gongs and to dress in the traditional Gion yukata, a special kimono that is only worn in the summer when the Gion Festival takes place in Japan. Grade 5 had studied the country of Japan during our International Ellen Peter and Declan Festival earlier in the year, mainly wearing wearing the yukata. because Miss Chapin took Japanese the yukata. when she attended Boston Latin Academy as a high school student. After the program the students were able to spend time in the museum, exploring on their own. We are grateful to have been invited to this awesome experience. St Peter Academy, South Boston, is an independent private school with a Catholic focus offering unique programs enhancing the educational experience for all of its students in Daniel learning how to play. grades Pre K through 8.

*Every week, we run part of a segment from Danny Picard’s daily iTunes podcast, “I’m Just Sayin.” He can also be heard weekends on WEEI 93.7 FM. This week, Danny talked with Boston Herald Patriots Insider Jeff Howe:

DANNY PICARD: So the NFL least one, if not two jobs somewhere healthy, he’s a terrific defensive a perfectly fine NFL quarterback Draft is now over, but tell me how in the coming months. So, instead tackle. And when it’s all said and some day. But it’s not going to you felt going into the draft? What of drafting three offensive linemen, done, outside of Clowney, he could happen anytime soon without some did you think the Patriots were could you have maybe packaged be the best interior defensive player sort of football tragedy in New going to do? Or, I should ask, what some of those picks on Saturday in the entire draft class. He’s really England. Good player, 6-foot-2 out did you think the Patriots needed with your third rounder, and then disruptive, he makes a ton of plays of Eastern Illinois. Much smaller to do, going into this draft, and moved up a little bit and try to draft and with his force on the inside, he’s level of competition, 5,000 yards, more specifically, with their first an impact player, somebody who going to help and 50 touchdowns last season, or 55, couple picks? will play, even if it’s on a regular make more plays something absurd like that. So, JEFF HOWE: Well I thought rotational basis, 30-40 percent of on the outside. So that’s huge right good accurate arm, good quick they should have addressed impact the snaps. I think that would have there. Yeah, he’s come back from an release, good pocket presence, a players at defensive tackle, which been the more aggressive approach ACL before. The first one he tore lot of tools that you can work with. they clearly did. They got a big to take. So that’s where I’m second- was the left one in 2011. He came But why go in the second round? check-mark there. Then, tight end guessing what they should have back in 2012 and wasn’t 100 percent Again, the contract thing has always and defensive end, and they didn’t done, and what they did do. in 2012, but I spoke to his defensive been big for me. And his contract get either one of those. So, I think DP: And you mention the third round coordinator at Florida, and he said is going to expire the same year as in terms of what they should have pick that they traded to Jacksonville Easley was out there and still had ’s, after the 2017 season, done, at least in my opinion, they for a fourth rounder and a sixth his best season. Throughout the when Brady will be 40. And Brady came up short in a couple areas. And rounder. I thought they would do year he was icing and rehabbing the has said that he wants to play into it’s easy to second guess the entire something like that with their first knee to make sure that he could get his 40’s. And like you said, and I body of work on Friday. I mean, round pick, with it being at the very back out there every Saturday. So I agree with completely, Brady has that’s what the draft is anyway. But end of the first round. They ended up think you’re going to see a similar not shown any signs of a guy who you get a quarterback instead of taking . And the situation with Easley now, now that was anywhere near retirement. You getting a guy like C.J. Fiedorowicz, situation with him is that he’s torn he’s going through the right knee potentially drafted a guy who will a tight end who could have been both of his ACL’s in both knees. And rehab. I think the risk is worth the never play a meaningful snap for an instant starter or rotational the question I had was why would reward there. I really like it. I think you. I mean, they don’t even let Ryan player with Gronkowski. You get you take a kid late in the first round they hit a home run there. Mallett take kneel-downs. So it’s a quarterback over Scott Crichton, that has that type of knee situation? DP: But then, their second pick not even like Garoppolo is going to who would have been a pretty good I mean, were you surprised at that was a quarterback. And there’s a get the mop-up duty or anything like third defensive end to enter the point, when you get to the 29th lot of head-scratching with this that. It doesn’t make a lot of sense to mix with Ninkovich and Chandler overall pick, were you thinking the one. I guess my take on drafting me. And if you drafted him because Jones. So I think they missed an Patriots weren’t going to make that a quarterback is, if the Patriots you like him a whole lot more than opportunity there. And then in the pick? Because I wasn’t shocked that really like a quarterback enough Mallett and Mallett is going into the third round, they traded down only they took Easley. I was shocked that where they feel like, “Hey, we’ve final year of his contract, then yeah a dozen picks, but my second guess they made the pick in general. got to take him now.” Then I’m I understand that. But, did you need there is, yeah, they got three good JH: When you get to that point okay with taking him. The problem to draft a backup quarterback in the offensive linemen on Saturday, guys in the draft, and you know it’s the is, , he wasn’t second round? No. You could have who will make and Patriots, you’re always waiting necessarily on my radar to be the got Aaron Murray in the fifth, Zach Dan Connolly sweat for their jobs for them to trade down, especially guy to eventually replace Tom Mettenberger in the sixth. I thought this training camp. And I know they when you’re on deadline, and you Brady. What do you know about those would have been much more had offensive line issues last season, wonder if you’re going to have to Jimmy Garoppolo, and how do economical picks. And you talk but for a team that is returning their write a story for the paper about you feel about the Patriots using about value with in starting line for a third straight pretty much nothing. So yeah, their second pick in this draft on a the draft. I really like Aaron Murray. season, and really is returning its you’re always surprised when the quarterback, when, at least to me, I I’ve been talking him up for a while top seven linemen from the depth Patriots make their pick and don’t don’t see Tom Brady getting ready now. I thought he was the guy to chart from a season ago, did you trade down. But with Easley, when to retire in the next year or two? go after, if the Patriots were going need to draft three guys? Because, healthy, and I know at this point JH: Yeah, exactly. I didn’t like the to go after a quarterback, because ultimately, that’s going to cost at that is a fluid situation, but when pick. I mean, Garoppolo could be it would have been a third-day May 15, 2014 SOUTHBOSTONTODAY • www.southbostontoday.com 15

can save $3 million against the cap by cutting Connolly. Guys who are really going to create some competition on the offensive line. The kid Zach Moore, the pass- rusher out of Concordia, the D-2 school, he was considered for a couple of years now to be one of the best defensive linemen in all of division two. Now, what is that worth? I think we’re about to find out. You never know with these guys who are edge rushers who are projects. Maybe they develop into something really exciting, maybe the guy doesn’t even make the team and he’s out of the league because he can’t get a second job. James White is the running back out of Wisconsin who has the chance to at least have more immediate playing time than the rest of the draft class, just because they rotate running backs so much. With Vereen and Ridley going into the final years of their contracts, you could see White get more reps because they don’t have to pay him next year. They pick. And again, going back to the were going to draft, to play with included. When you read more might want to diminish the value original point, the Patriots passed Gronkowski. They didn’t [draft] about them after the pick, it’s like, on the open market of their two over needs, guys who would have that guy. You mentioned some “Okay, this is a good player.” But starters. And White offers more in played immediately in 2014, and names that were available and they it’s not like I saw the name pop up the passing game too, so he could who would have had significant could have had, and I was surprised on the screen and I was like, “Oh, be a Vereen backup. I think he is roles, as opposed to a guy who, with that. But as you look at the rest geez, they got a good pick.” I saw the one that the Patriots are going really, again in theory, is never of the Patriots’ picks, outside of the some reactions to that on twitter to see more of on the field, or at going to play a meaningful snap two we just talked about in Easley and the people who are hardcore least hear the name of more. If one for the Patriots. Because when his and Garoppolo, out of all the rest draft analysts. But you know what, of those offensive linemen wins a contract is up in 2017, if Tom Brady of their draft picks, is there one that in retrospect, and after reflecting on starting job, you’re not going to wants another contract, Garoppolo really jumped off the screen to you it more, I think you look at the two notice those guys too often.
