One thing that is starting to bug me is the people that bring up Ray's son to validate their stances that he will stay here.

Ray is a millionare, he will get the best care for his son no matter  where he lives.  


But it is a valid point. Remember when Fisher left Utah because the LA hospitals were better for his child?

Right, but not to discredit Walker's condition but he essentially has (at this point) a relatively stable form of diabetes. A condition millions of Americans struggle with. Not all of them live in Boston.

Plus Miami is a 2 1/2 hour flight from Boston. It's not a long haul.

I always look for my insider Celtics news from Pinchie Fabian. As random of a twitter guy this is, he still holds more credibility than A. Sherrod.

For the record, I met Danny Ainge outside of a Wendy's once so if you guys have any questions about what we're going to do this offseason let me know.
  don't hold out on us... did he get a Frosty?

He was drinking a medium fountain drink. It was unclear if he had eaten inside before I saw him, and I don't think it's fair to speculate.

Just putting the pieces together - so you're saying Danny didn't use the drive thru.  Was that for a particular reason? Can we trace this back to the JR Giddens thread? Was he working the Drive Thru window?? Are those two at odds??? OR were they meeting to discuss a new contract???? [dang] it, SO!!!!!

Kobe to Celtics, A-Rod to Red Sox, KG to the Warriors.

I'll believe it when someone emails Jeff saying it's going down and then miraculously does less than 24 hours later.

*Oh and Ryen Gomes.

Right and im not saying that its a consideration but its just annoying hearing it especially on the radio when people are wrapping up their main points and then throw in, "Oh and his kid is sick hes got to stay here in boston"

And after this guys initial post with the rumor he did the same thing a couple posts down.

I'm not sure I'll see a more creative post for a month. That's awesome.

You got to give it to the guy that posted this on RealGM, it's a possible, made-up rumor, but it's delivered with a lot of confidence.

I think, though am not sure, that Ainge entered just to say 'hello' to JR who was working a double for the second straight day.

But then ended up using doctors in New York...

A lot of people in Utah would say athletes use those situations as an excuse to go play somewhere else.

After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class

  Fisher asked to get out of his contract though. That's pretty uncommon, even for players in Utah.
