just mindless meandering drivel

“Recognize that all words are part false and part true, limited by our imperfect understanding. But strive always for honesty within yourself.” – Master Po

so……Honestly I could care less who hates Celtics and their fans.

I just wanna say as a very-well-traveled Boston sports fan, I have come to understand that Boston area sports fans, by and large, and in general, and bandwagonesque-type style, have a unique and identifiable modus operandi in conversation. Other major media markets (New York is New York, nuff said) just don’t have the overly academic/cultural/historic/dynastic/BLUE COLLAR YET perspective that we New Englanders take for granted = piss off the person we’re trying to EXPLAIN OBVIOUS REALITY TO in the conversation…

I liked Norman Chad. He’d always been a fun guy to listen to during the WSOP.

But what the hell is this? Really. It’s an immature—not to mention baseless—attack on Boston teams and fans which is basically at the same level as an internet troll.

Chad should really be considering his job security here. He may well have just convinced the entire Boston area to steer clear of the WSOP.

Guys, read it again. It’s an ode to us.

We’re not different from any other type of fan. His hate, it’s all a compliment to us. It’s what we, as fans, provoke. He is what makes us a fan: the opposition.

You need evil to do good, and he’s our evil.

And he knows it :)

…but it made me laugh so much because it is so ridiculous that it sounds comical. Is this supposed to be serious??? …

Okay – I fit his profile, growing up in the 60’s, college in the 70’s, 80’s divorce, 90’s divorce, etc . ‘Cept many at the time had only admiration for Red and the Celts. They were the dynasty, but almost always, the underdog. Bill Russell was undersized against Wilt, Jerry West, Elgin Baylor? The Celtics weren’t supposed to compete. Yet Red and the boys delivered. The champion, the underdog, the champion again – - drove people nuts. Sound familiar?

This piece pays tribute to the Celtic tradition and foreshadows what he expects for this year. He just chose a different way to remind the basketball world that the Celts should not be written off.
