No Rondo on the National Team? No Problem.

No Rondo on the National Team?  No Problem.

I once had a job with a fast food chain which will remain anonymous for the sake of modesty and brand protection.  One day, after my shift at the end of the evening, I discovered that my register was short enough to result in instant termination.  So I filled it full of Big Mac and Filet [...]

My Life As A Celtics Fan
August 22, 2010 by Nick Sannicandro

My Life As A Celtics Fan

Most Celtics fans fit into one of two categories . The first, those who grew up in the Russell or Bird Era , always saw championships and have been a fan for life. The other is the group of young fans that really only began following the team once Kevin Garnett was brought aboard. The vets and the band wagoners, thats what makes up the “New Garden” these days. I however many times have found myself asking where I fit in regards to this grouping.

Boston Celtics: Learning from the Mistakes of 2010

Boston Celtics: Learning from the Mistakes of 2010

Over the last several weeks, various Celtics have been very vocal about the team’s integration of new players. Of course, Shaquille O’Neal is the biggest piece that must fit in well. At USA basketball, Rajon Rondo declared Shaq to be not much different than Perk in the middle and Rondo feels the team’s new big man will not change his style of play at all.

London Calling: Hang Up The Phone

Whoever said that the grass is always greener on the other side was clearly not referring to the Atlantic Ocean,  as in England it often manifests itself as a lighter shade…of brown. Unfortunately, David Stern doesn’t seem to be as troubled by brown grass as we might like, as the league recently announced that the Nets [...]

A Look at the Current Celtics’ Last Stand

The Boston Herald posted a nice breakdown of the Celtics current roster. An interesting point, things will seem to be going full circle for the captain. When the summer of 2012 rolls around, only Rajon Rondo will be a guarantee to be under contract. Reading the Herald story, it gave me the feeling that Pierce [...]

Glen Davis: Benched or Traded?

Okay. That headline grabbed your attention. It’s not my style to publish work that feeds the eyes into NSS. I cannot say that I am shouting out, “trade Big Baby” over the internet because I am desperate for you to read my article. I am saying it because I have recently been thinking about what [...]
