Roy doesn't always drink beer, but when he does, he prefers Dos Equis.

Roy Hobbs would have dropped 60 on the Rockets with a sore throat. Roy Hobbs plays better sick.
Coined the CelticsBlog term, "Euromistake."

Thank you, Roy.

It was a great post-season, and you really stepped up your game to carry this team to a game 7 against the Magic.
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

Roy Hobbs still doesn't believe in Magic.

get rid of tony allen, let billy walker have his chance.
we will come back much stronger next year, the decline in ray, paul and kevins game will be matched, and more by the improvment of perks, baby, bill walker (hopefully we play him) and of course rajon rondo

Roy Hobbs would easily convince Lebron James and Dwayne Wade to come to Boston in 2010 if he were GM.  The Celtics dynasty would never end!

roy hobbs can in fact ban you, as i have been banned prior to our 17th banner season, the season everyone was calling for doc rivers head because we should have won championships with that squad (pre-kg/ray allen)...

anyways

i am confused as to why roy hobbs has his name after a famous BASEBALL story when this is a basketball blog, none the less, he taught me to respect peoples opinions, even if they are dead wrong (thanks for winning the ship doc!)

well adios for a  longer offseason this year... at least we get an extra month this time around!

i hope the celtics all go to the beach with jalen rose and drink girlie drinks!

Just the most active that didn't deserve a sticky.  8)  The TP / new star threads put this one to shame.

Meh, I just wanted to edit the first post.

Roy Hobbs is just too quick.
