Dorchester homeboy Donnie Wahlberg went on a sports shopping spree at the Mass. Film Office's Oscar bash the other night. Wahlberg-who just wrapped up a new flick, "The Bullfighter" with William Dafoe down in Texas-scooped up a Sammy Sosa signed baseball and other team tchotchkes. He also doled out big bucks for a Dennis Eckersley autographed Red Sox jersey, a hockey stick signed by Bobby Orr and a puck whacked by Boston Bruins winger Dmitri Khristich.
Donnie, who spent $2,500 in all, does have a few bucks to toss around now that he's making movies with the likes of Dafoe and box office biggie Bruce Willis.
"I'm also in TV Hell right now," Donnie told the Track. "I just turned down 2 TV series and I'm about to turn down a 3rd." Then there's Donnie's old buddies from his New Kids on the Block days. The recording types are filling up his voice mail with requests now that he's back producing for ex-Block buddies Joey McIntyre and Jordan Knight. So what about that rumored New Kids reunion, Donnie?
"No, no way," he said.
