I’m not delusional.
At least that’s what I keep telling myself.  Despite the sudden surge in offense against a team they should have worked over anyway, the Celtics still scare me and that is a problem.  Not so much that they scare me, but moreover that they don’t really scare anyone else right now.
Sunday’s game against [...]

This is my first submission to NSS and I have to admit, following the blanket party stomping by the Griz the other night, I wasn’t sure I’d be right in the head to ever speak on the C’s again. But, I was talked down off the Tobin and I am back to insisting to myself [...]

In what’s become a ritual, Travis Hilden and I texted eachother throughout Friday night’s game. Just as the Celtics had played their best basketball since March 3rd, our texts seemed to take on a different tone. Upon re-reading our short conversation this morning, I thought it would be cool thing to highlight the conversation here [...]

How the Celtics come out to start this game will have no effect on the outcome, period.  Boston can come out gang busters cracking skulls and throwing it down with bad intentions but unless they can sustain that energy it won’t mean a damn thing.
Something needs to be done to shake things up and not [...]

The Boston Celtics have been squeaky clean. They have perfectly embodied the definition of Celtic-Pride. They played as a team, unified by one common goal. This line-up implanted the Ubuntu-Theory into the history book’s of the Celtics vaulted library of championships. They made us proud to be fans and highlights of their championship run sat [...]

The body language, the rhetoric, you name it.. anyway you look at it last night was the worst loss of the Big Three Era. This team resembles a YMCA over 30 rec-league. They have played like losers recently but now they even look (and sound) like losers trying to search for anything to excuse their [...]

I just witnessed my team get dusted by about a quarter of a million points.  Ok, maybe that was some slight hyperbole on my part… but not by much.
This was one of the worst performances I have ever seen in the history of the world and I’m not limiting it to just sports.  I think [...]

I’m not going to mince words with this one, whatever the hell that means. Remember those old blenders with 8 buttons that all did the exact same thing but made different noises? I believe one of them was mince. Much like my blender with ice, fruit, and juice, Stephen A has chopped, grated, grinded, stirred, [...]

I often refer to “basketball purgatory” in my description of the Celtics 22 season drought that spanned from 1986 to 2008. As a die hard Celtics fan, the post Bird-Era was very difficult to watch. It was hard to watch Rick Pitino dethrone Red Auerbach from his honorary role as team president. It’s still difficult [...]
