Love it!  Very cool concept.

Beautiful.

"Defense" is with an "s", though, but that's minor. I am sure you can easily fix that (as well as "Russell").

Have another Tommy Point!  :)

This is so cool. TP for sharing.
Tommy: He's got a line about me. Tell him the line.

Mike: Everybody 60 or over knows Tommy as a player. Everybody 40 or over knows Tommy as a coach. Everybody 20 or over knows Tommy as a broadcaster. And everybody 10 or under thinks he's Shrek.

Very cool man.  TP for you.  I always loved those mosaics comprised of small images to represent one large overall image.

But I've never seen somebody do it with text alone.  Very original.

Let's go C's!

Love it, that's amazing..I like mosaics like that. I like it even more that you used text, it's pretty original and I haven't really seen it before.

Cool, nice work.

I think it would be even cooler using only the last names of former (and current) Celtics players.
