I remember during the 2007-2008 campaign, there were a plethora of Celtics fans. And not just bandwagon fans---but, DIEHARDS. I mean, people that could remember the days of Havlicek, Bird, and Red Auerbach, etc. etc. etc.

There they always were, pounding their chest and talking shit--just like their pathetic, arrogant team of mercenaries that was hastily assembled in a last ditch effort to save that fag Danny Ainge's job.

In 2008, I asked how the NBA Gods could reward such insider trading (Kevin McHale making one final assist to Danny Ainge) and blatant arrogance with a Larry O'Brien trophy.

But now, I know why---because they wanted the Celtics fans to enjoy the mountaintop. They wanted to remember what a championship felt like--and to make sure it was crispy fresh--before the sickle was lowered into their collective testicles.

......................

People always ask why I spew so much vitriol at the clowns that make up the Celtics' franchise and their fans. Well, the answer is simple. During the 20 point blow-out that Cleveland handed them--did their "fabled" crowd make a whimper?

And where are all those Celtics fans now? I don't see them around now to collect their collective ass kickings. They are just like their pathetic team--exposed for being nothing but loud mouth bullies who, once somebody punched them in the mouth, found themselves without retort.

I am so glad that they won that 2008 title. It must make it that must painful watching Kevin Garnett hobble up and down the court. I'm sure it makes Boston douches yearn for the days of him picking on Yi Jianlan and Zaza Pachulia. I'm sure they lust for the days when any injury--such as the famous fake ass Willis Reed moment Paul Pierce tried to pass off during Game 2--could be cured by whatever they gave him in the Boston locker room.

Please notice the stoic look on Brian Scalabrine and Tony Allen's face. Is it anything short of comedy?[/align]

That would be Brian Scalabrine's biggest contribution to the championship team. Helping carry the pathetic carcass of Paul Pierce off the court. Please view watch his press conference after the title, and act as if the Karma Gods weren't sharpening their battle axe as soon as this went down.

(Imbedding wasn't working for some reason).


And who can forget Kevin Garnett's timeless ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, as if he had just cured cancer or something?

What a joke of a franchise. What a joke of a fanbase. They're getting everything they deserve and more. Kevin Garnett (who has one leg) is locked up for like the next 4 years. Rasheed Wallace, who has been dead since 2006, is signed until 2011. Paul Pierce, their franchise player, is crumbling.

They're trading for the likes of Stephon Marbury and Nate Robinson. TONY ALLEN SEES VALUABLE MINUTES ON THEIR TEAM.

I love it. I love. I wish I could harvest the Celtic tears and use them to masturbate myself into a coma every night before I went to bed.

The only thing that makes me mad is that it's going to be the Cavaliers that get the honors of Tombstoning the Celtics this spring. What will the average spread of those 4 games be? Cavs -45? I would probably take that spread comfortably.

I look forward to Kevin Garnett, now a mere caricature of himself, sitting on the bench, towel over his head, and looking like he just watched his family get raped and murdered in front of him (only, he's on one leg--so there ain't shit he's bout to do about it).

In short, fuck the Celtics and fuck their sorry ass fanbase. I knew they were posers in 2008 and here we are--a mere 2 years later--and they disappeared at the first sign of turbulence.

I'm sure they'll all reappear again though in 20 years when the Celtics are relevant again.

Yeah, I'm still around. I sorta lost it when they signed Sheed at the start of the year b/c I've always disliked the guy. Of course, he hasn't done shit all year and our players need walkers half the time. The Nets loss was just the low point of a disappointing season. They can't defend as well as they used to, can't score like they should, can't do much other than squeak out wins against mediocre teams most nights. Actually, maybe I blame Starbury. Dude was a curse or something. Still can't get tickets though, which kinda sucks, I'd go if I could get in the door for less than $50 for a ticket. Such is life in a city filled with a fucking sorry ass fanbase (and trust me, there are plenty here that fall into that category).

I appreciate the time it took you to type all that though, pretty epic ranting if I do say so myself.

Wow.

Did Banner(not sure of his entire username) make it on to this site?

I don't think so, nor did radcard

If they didn't make it over here, it just further proves their idiocy.

The defining image of the 2008 Celtic's campaign.

Hahaha.

freakin hilarious

This is classic Sage right here. Great stuff man, great stuff...

5/5 will read again.

Thank you for reading my mind the other night after the Cavs destroyed them.

Ok, so the Celtics are hoping to sign Michael Finley OR Larry Hughes...

Wow.

Boston : The New NBA Retirement Home

Read that the Lakers are interested in Finley too.

Yea, I read that too, although I don't really buy it. Don't see what he brings to the team, and the Lakers have tried to slash payroll, not add to it.

Also, was Larry Hughes bought out or something? Cause if he hasn't been, the deadline to be play-off eligible already passed.

Bought out two weeks ago. Kings wanted nothing to do with him. I say he goes to Charlotte if anywhere and probably wont be in the league next year.

Shit if the Celtics get Rainmaker Larry, I might just throw in the towel for all other NBA teams.

I thought getting Michael Finley would not only make them younger, but lethal.. If they get Larry? My god, it's not even fair.

Well, I am a Celtic fan...have been since I was a boy in the late 70s....I am here...I have been unhappy with the organization since they hired Pitino, who immediately ruined the team by bringing two of his own overrated Kentucky Wildcats...I live in Houston and only hear about the Rockets, so I am not educated about the horrible basketball, they call the NBA, so I cannot argue about it with you......but I am still a fan ......but sadly I am not a sad enough individual to shed tears over a professional sports franchise. So please use vaseline on your way to a coma.

Wow you certainly spend A LOT of time creating Celtics threads and there is always more ranting and complaining than your Lakers threads... ohhh wait have you created a Lakers thread in awhile? Get over yourself and your hate for Boston. It's kinda sad almost like Capone's threads on the Bengals and Ochocinco. Your like the kid that is always looking for attention has to start a thread so that everyone knows your still around. And I will ALWAYS be a Celtics fan... It's funny everyone is saying oh my god they are SOOO terrible even though despite their recent struggles they still have one of the top 6 records in the NBA... Seriously get over yourself

ESPN says Finley signs with Boston.

Joyful. He actually brings the average age up by quite a bit, not to mention he has been a no-show all year. I dunno what they're planning with this one other than putting another body on the bench.

You know they are banking on everyone being healthy for one last playoff run. I doubt it will happen, but all these aged vets can play if healthy.

Shoot, that'd be amazing. I don't doubt they could put it together for a couple of series (see Chicago, Orlando last year) but over the course of the whole playoffs will be difficult.

But hey, I'll be watching. Probably cursing a lot, too. But definitely watching.
