I think I have been here every 30 minutes today to check and see if anyone has anything new to say...I have been this way all Playoffs...

I guess my Blood is pure Green (with a little Scarlett and Gray mixed in)...Sorry Boss!!!

Anyone else spending too much time reading about the Celts at work?

I'm my own boss at work, so it makes it extra hard to get off the [dang] blog!

Needless to say I would have fired myself long ago if I was an employee.

Just for the hell of it, maybe I will fire myself.  It's a gorgeous day outside...Hmmmm...Now, I'm thinking about it. :-\
Yup

  • The good ole days.
Honestly, several days have gone by lately where I maybe did 15-30 minutes of work in my 8 hour day.

Partially because they aren't giving me work to do, but the playoffs have certainly contributed.

There are few true bball fans here...

This is a football state...

They have had nothing to cheer for so all we have are a bunch of front running, trash talking idiots who talk despite not having a clue what they are talking about...

I guess I should be more careful how I say that...


I love OH - IO and will never leave this state.

Come football season (especially in Columbus) we have great football fans...

but when it comes to bball there aren't many of us who love and follow the game enough to talk intelligently about the game.

I guess I just cannot stand front runners...

(Even Celtics "fans" who are front runners)

Ohio is definitely a football state.  The Browns have sold out every year despite being pathetic (thankfully this FINALLY seems to be turning around).

You will get frontrunners everywhere and they are very annoying.  I love discussing sports with rival funs, as long as they know what they are talking about.  Sadly, that is usually not the case.

In Cleveland, we have to deal with Steeler 'fans.'  I could rant for 20 minutes about them.

I'm currently working on an order off a spreadsheet. 

It goes kind of like this:

1) COPY #
2) PASTE #
3) ADD TO CART
4) SWITCH TO CELTICSBLOG & Refresh
  a) Read what's new
  b) Add comment if the need strikes me
5) RINSE & REPEAT
