I'm a Celtics fan. Always have been. But the NBA just sucks. Absolutely sucks. With college hoops such a favorite sport of mine, I honestly can't stomach the pro game any longer. (Except when Little Brother scores the corporate box seats on a Friday evening and I can drink for free.)
But I'm happy that Antoine Walker is back with the squad. Honestly I thought it was one of the dumber moves Danny Ainge made after becoming GM when he got rid of him and picked up 3 or 4 bunk players. The best part is that Gary Payton is gone now. I could never stand him and it was hard to root for him this year. So yeah, I'm psyched he's back because I think him and Paul Pierce play beautifully together, but c'mon dude, NBA.
OK - time to address this on the blog. You're a BOSTON Celtics fan, & yet you root for the Spankees? You used to root for the Raiders, then went to the Jets, & are now with the Bengals. Why not the Knicks? Or the Giants? And before you answer "Because they suck", even Boston fans have to admit the C's suck this year. First place with a record under .500? That's disgraceful. But seriously - how the hell do those teams end up being your favorites? Other than perhaps that when you were "growing up" (yes, the term is used loosely) the C's, Spanks, & Raiders were dynasty teams (despite the Yankees hideous record in the '80s).

Questions worthy of a post all to themselves.
