The all-purpose "feel good" / pep rally / "optimism only" thread

PLamb:
For those wishing to conduct a blog-wide "pep rally", use this thread to do so.  It can be for games, or any time you want a dose of kool-aid. -R.H.

--- Quote from: Bahku on March 11, 2010, 02:25:10 AM ---This is a thread dedicated to those of us who may get a bit overwhelmed by all the "Gloom and Doom" threads that abound when a team is struggling like the Celtics are at present, and just want a place where they can come for relief ... or a place where they can post their positive bent without fear of reproach or cries of "Insanity!" ... or a place where they can praise their beloved Celtics team, or cheer it on without limit, or post nauseatingly sweet pics or video clips, or discuss it's STRONG points, or even suggest CONSTRUCTIVE (dare I say the word?) criticism for ways of improving our Team In Green on it's way to the inevitable 18th Banner.

There are no limits as to what may be talked about or posted here, only that it fall within the posting rules of CB, that it concern our beloved Celtics, and that it unquestionably falls into that pessimists' nightmare of a viewpoint that we call "half-full". Now, it may seem like I'm being selfish, biased or exclusionary by doing this, but I actually had those "half-empties" in mind as well, because this thread will be clearly marked so as to help them avoid any nasty accidental positivity-poisonings. Us "blind optimists" will have a place to expound our limitless, (and obvious), madness and chronic case of the "Happies", and they will remain safely free of any cheerful contamination or supplemental sanguinity.


GO CELTICS!          GO CELTICS!          GO CELTICS!          GO CELTICS!          GO CELTICS!          GO CELTICS!          GO CELTICS!          GO CELTICS!          GO CELTICS!          GO CELTICS!



                           

                                                                     ;D


(By the way, I just realized that the abbreviation for "Optimism Only", (oo), is Tagalog for "yes" - hmmmm .... )

  THE FEEL GOOD GAME THREAD


It's painfully obvious that there are a group of people that want to watch the Boston Celtics and blog at the same time while cheering on their team in a rah-rah type of fashion

It's also painfully obvious that when there exist others that want to cheer on their team in a decidedly different fashion

It's also painfully obvious that due to the rules of this blog that the staff can't kick said posters out of the regular game thread and that the two factions of people might be rubbing each other the wrong way

Therefore, this thread is for all those that do want to watch the Celtics AND cheer on their team without highly "critically observations" being present


I THEREFORE ASK, IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE CRITICAL OF THE TEAM OR THEIR PLAYERS, PLEASE DO NOT POST HERE AND POST IN THE MAIN GAME THREAD, PLEASE

MattG12:


YAY TEAM!

PLamb:
Gotta say that although most will expect bad things tonight, probably for good reason, I think this team is going to come out angry after being taken to task publicly by their coach and I say a good double digit win tonight

Maybe I shouldn't expect it but I have a feeling that's what is going to happen

lon3lytoaster:
Can I be bipolar and post in both?

Atzar:
If we get a Hand-Wringer's Game Thread, can Boston's picture be a parachute?
