(Sadly, though, I'm not playing this year.)




A variety of reasons, but the biggest one:



Baby H., estimated time of arrival March 4.


MAZEL TOV! How did I miss this news? Is it because I never check the baby thread?

I've kept it on the DL here for the most part.  Unless you checked into one or two specific threads, you wouldn't have seen it.

Thanks, guys.

For those who haven't done the pick 2 draft I'd highly recomend it - it's a very fun exercise, that's a good time, and everyone is generally in good spirits. Pretty much embodies all that is good about Celticsblog.

had fun the last couple of times.  count me in -- I may need to request a particular drafting timeslot like in past drafts due to work commitments.  if that's ok, I'm a 'playa' :)

Roy, any truth to the rumor that you'll be naming your child male or female after Rashard Lewis?

I heard it was Carlos Boozer Hobbs, with teh hope that he would be a 'better than average defending center'.

No.  "Zach Randolph", on the other hand, was formally vetoed as a name for our baby daughter.

That will be a topic of discussion. I was thinking of having a contest for the top 3 teams in the league, and doing a standard randomizer for the remaining 24.

Because, lets face it. Building around LBJ/Wade, Durant/Westbrook, or CP3/Griffin is gonna be a lot easier than rebuilding around Bogut/Jennings (which I had to do last season, and I will NOT do again.
