A blow.

If he’s hurt it will be a big blow for the Bulls. Hinrick has been playing very well. If Gordon can’t play it changes the series. At the end of close games he’s been their closer.

I don’t believe it. Post Shredded Wheat on Celtics Blog. I read their full page ad in the Wall St Journal last Thurs while on a plane and couldn’t figure it out. Went on their website to see whether legit or a goof. If that was the goal, score one for Post. I did forward to my sons. Again score one for Post.
So I’m sure some ad exec for Post or some Post Prod mgr is scanning these sites for reaction. I will admit I wouldn’t know what to do either for such a boring cereal but my age is probably the target consumer, not my sons, and you got my attention but what am I being sold? You put the “No” in innovation. Cute line but what about that message will move me to buy the product. We are a sports blog so I guess the boss at Post is throwing a Hail Mary. Good luck!
Celtics Blog, by the way, delivered on its part.

I´d guess

True that

It has nothing to do with Ben Gordon. I’m not sure enough how the web works. Was the Palace of Light ad seen at the top of all bloggers screens or only mine (for some mysterious reason). Anyway, when I saw it I blogged here which was just below. Its an extremely weird ad campaign but they have their presence everywhere, quickly – Wall St Journal paper edition, Celtics Blog, on TV last night.
Advertising isn’t advertising anymore thanks to the internet. It’s clicks and tweets and who knows where its going. All this “viral” stuff.
As for Gordon, I’m not sure what to hope for – keep him in the lineup for his lazy defense, or get him out becausee of his scoring ability.

It would be nice for a change...

If some team NOT named “Boston Celtics” would get to actually suffer an injury every now and then!

Grabbing his Jock

He hurt it grabbing his jock.

That was pretty ridiculous. But at least he didn’t do the Sam Cassell onions dance. That got pretty old fast…

An MRI on Monday revealed nothing unexpected for Gordon, who maintained several times after the game he would be ready to play in Tuesday’s Game 5 in Boston.
