Boy oh boy. How nice to have some support in these troubling times.
But a bit about myself then. 47, from the Netherlands, played hoops in the 80's and 90's, including some fun pickup games on the famous amsterdam museumsquare courts.
Fanatic C's supporter since, well 1978-ish, when i read the history of and Bill Russell's biografy 'Second Wind'. Back in those days all we had was books and year-old issues of SportsIllustrated. Never been able to see a live game. When finally gotten the chance to visit Boston, the Ol'Garden had already been taken down. No tickets available so had to be satisfied with sitting on the bench next to Red's statue.

Lived through some hard-times, but it's good to see so many die-hard fans around here.
Amazed, and a bit intimidated with the level of hoops-knowlegde around here, i just stick to reading the game-threads at 2am, while trying to find an online tv-channel that bring me the games live, 'cause the pay-per-view idiots overhere think Koby is what the viewers want, plus they air maybe 3 playoff games live a week.

After game-4 against LeBaby (and LeMom ;-) i'm thinking maybe the guys are too old after all, the extra playoff intensity and speed is too much for them. Then again, the Texas-triangle sweep was very impresssive, so why not that new banner?
Happy to be here.

PS If anybody knows where to get Celtics History DVDs that are not region-protected, mail me.
