In reading the article from the Globe's Chad Finn (http://www.boston.com/sports/basketball/celtics/articles/2010/10/22/gorman_heinsohn_hold_court/) this was the best part IMO:

Gorman said if there’s one thing that’s changed for him over the years — besides his hair color — it’s that he’s mellowed a bit, to the point that he gets a kick out of letting Heinsohn try to dig his own way out of trouble every now and then.


“I thoroughly enjoy the moments on the air when Tommy’s chewing on a piece of pizza when he’s trying to do a replay,’’ Gorman said. “I thoroughly enjoy those. Whereas before I probably wouldn’t have said anything, now I don’t let him get off the hook on those moments. And I’m not about to start doing it again.’’


Congratulations to the best basketball broadcaster's around!!!

Not from the New England area but of course know who they are and heard lots from through the years they are great. Tommy is just hilarious.

It's pretty amazing.

I just turned 30 this past summer and these two are celebrating their 30th season together.  That's my whole lifetime. 

Very cool and something you almost never see.
