Did Jon Barry wear a Gino shirt for the post game show?  They were showing a guy on the Jumbotron during the 4th quarter, who I was 99% sure was Jon Barry, and he was wearing a Gino shirt.  Somehow it just doesn't seem right for him to be celebrating a C's win.

It was apparently him, read it on one of the ESPN articles.

I don't mind it, in the perspective of this year alone, I've enjoyed his transformation in believing in the Celtics... he was one of our main critics early in the year, then you could see how he started praising them as the year went on, especially after seeing Rondo play... And if not mistaken, he chose the Celts to win the finals (one of the few)?

It was definitely him.

Yeah I think he was the only 1 of 10 espn analysts to predict a celtics victory in the finals?  Thats what i heard on planet mikey last night.  Speaking of which, I saw Mikey Adams out on causeway street last night after the game!  The riot police wouldn't let him get to his car haha.  I've always been a huge fan of him.  Awesome guy, he talked to us for like 5 minutes and took a picture.

Tim Legler was the only ESPN analyst that picked the Celtics and he picked them in 6.  Jon Barry is a great analyst and I really enjoy his work, someone post a pic of him wearing the Gino shirt if you can find one please.

He probably felt vindicated, since he was a lone on an island this series with Legler and Walton. An amazing imbalance of picking from the experts. Usually the picks are a little more even just by virtue of people wanting to be contrarian. Just a bizarre situation considering how obvious the match up problems were.

I'm not sure how I feel about that.  Outside of the fact that he looks like Lt Commander Data, he refused to play for the Celtics when they drafted him. I think he needs to recuse himself from ever hopping on the bandwagon. 
Good food, like good music and good love, always requires a little sweat in the making in order for it to be truly memorable.

I have to admit -- I hold a grudge for Barry sticking it to the Celtics when he got drafted.  Will never like him, no matter what he says or wears.
