Kevin Connolly returned home to Long Island to join with Mike Bossy and the Islanders in helping out local kids for the holidays.
Intrepid videographer friend Bobby was on the scene to do some video (8 a.m. was just way too early for me). As a thanks to Bobby, give a click to his new boxing blog, The Neutral Corner.

If I had only known that my cutie Kevin Connolly was going to be so close on Tuesday, I mighta had to play hookie from work and head to Modells.
I hate when I read bad press about him.
Kevin Connolly is truly just a down to earth guy from NY, with a big heart.
Glad to see stories that support this fact!!
Hearing rumors that Entourage won't return at all.
What have you heard, Mark?

Roush on Entourage
***************************************
Question: There is an ugly rumor floating around the Entourage fan pages than the show may not be returning this year for its fifth season (or at all, for that matter). I thought you might be the right person to get to the bottom of this ugly rumor and dispel all the Entourage groupies' fears — or confirm their worst nightmares. Is what we're hearing true? Does it mean Doug Ellin just won't have time to put out new shows until 2009, or will the show not be returning to HBO at all? Many fans were left in limbo at the end of Season 4 with the fate of Medillin, and I know Kevin Connolly and others have said they were on board for 4 or 5 more seasons. Doesn't it seem unlikely HBO would pull the plug altogether on such a cult favorite? Thank you so much in advance for your attention to this matter!— Elaine, Rockaway Twp, NJ

Matt Roush: The reason Entourage may not return on schedule for its fifth season is (drum roll) the strike. HBO has ordered a fifth season, but the strike has delayed Entourage (like most other shows) from going forward in terms of development and production. Which means, depending on the duration of the strike and how long Doug Ellin and his troops need to plot out and execute a new season, that Entourage may not be able to return for quite a while. That's not the same as cancellation. I can't imagine HBO dumping the show at this point. But honestly, if this strike doesn't resolve itself in the next month or so, who can predict where any of the dominoes will fall? Certainly not me.

Kevin Connolly loves hockey so much, he's happy to go to any game. He attended the LA Kings game Monday night with Doug Ellin, and, based on the pics, was very emotionally involved in the game. Gotta love a guy who loves his sports.
Wonder if Kevin Connolly and Doug Ellin were discussing character development between periods.
