You gotta love 5 wins in a row! Let's keep it up for this week's games so we have even more to be thankful for!

Get out there and vote next Tuesday, November 4th, Celtics fans!

This is the beginning of the front page article on the Celtics NBS website: The Celtics already know they have one of the best starting lineups in the NBA. After several exhibition games, they also know they have a strong supporting cast, too.

I am so stoked for a kick-ass season!

Remembering Red

The old C's coach and patriarch Arnold "Red" Auerbach died a year ago, so the Celtics home page had a little write-up about him in tribute. Nobody has nicknames like "Red" anymore. What a great name. You can't really pull it off with any other color. Purple? Yellow? No way. Whitey might have been cool a long time ago, but now that will either offend people or make them giggle. I like "Blue" as a name, but my friend pointed out that it's also a past-tense verb that could be bad. Um, yeah. Arnold Blue Auerbach would sound a bit dirty.

The Celtics Go to Washington

The Celtics just got honored at the White House for having such a great year. On the bus back,
Jeff Twiss, the VP of Media Relations said, "We started the season at the Vatican and ended at the White House. That's pretty neat."

It really is, isn't it? I mean, being in the NBA is cool enough. And of course there are the big paychecks, flocks of women, etc. But some of the other, weirder stuff is really cool. How many people ever even visit both the Vatican and the White House in their lives?

When the internet first became usable, I found it so annoying. But now it's my lifeline. In this age of venue name changes that happen every week, imagine trying to look up Fleet Center information in a phone book. (Yeah, I searched for that out of old habit. Early onset Alzheimer's, maybe?) But TD Banknorth Garden information gets you to the same place. I love that. Spell check is also my friend.

This was a great article about Kevin Garnett finally getting to win a championship. God, that has to feel great after so many years of hard work.
