And yet I like the love handles on cheerleaders and I have no idea why cause it makes no sense.

The love handles on some of the past Celtic Dancers. you know what. I hate the dancers. Can't stand the idea. I know Red is waiting for the management group who made the decision to create this idea to get to heaven so he can kick the everliving crap out of them. That said, if you are going to have dancers and parade them around like sex meat in skin tight outfits, shouldn't they be in better shape than 45 year old wife? Shouldn't they look like super models? Listen if the have belly rolls, they don't make the grade. I don't care if they are prima ballerinas because, and can we be honest here, no one cares that they are dancing. They only care that they look good!
Gotta disagree with you here.  Some of them are amazing.  There might be one or two with a little jiggle in the stomach but most of them are out of most of our leagues.  They might not be "TV Hot" but they are "real life hot".

I think I could look past the jiggle if given the opportunity as well.
Amen.

The truth is, there are people who actually do like the dancing a lot. I know plenty of fathers with season tickets who bring their young daughters to the games and their daughters love the dancers.

As far as bodies go, I would take most of them over emaciated runway models.

In general, I do not go to games looking for things to get mad about. Perhaps the only thing I would complain about regarding going to games is that our PA guy is horrible. His voice is constantly cracking. He really needs to be replaced.

I would also ditch the tshirts saying "who wants a tshirt". Go back to the straight Celtics tshirts. And when throwing tshirts, stop doing the gymnastics. Use the time to give out free stuff.

I'm not going to complain about stuff all teams or all fans do throughout the league, though it bothers me. I agree with the complaining about calls, but this is a problem with players throughout the league. I also find it annoying when the fans complain about calls that were clearly correct on the replay, but this too is done by fans throughout the league.

Games should be played skins vs shirts, win win for everyone.

Details?

I haven't really applied, I want one of those moments like in the movie Eddie where I randomly become the coach or GM =) If my current career ever does get boring though, I could see going into the business side of pro sports (though I think everyone and their mother wants to do that, so it must be cutthroat)

And it probably doesn't pay much either due to high supply.

I work in their marketing department. I started through a summer internship, worked during the school year part-time and they recently hired full time. I have only been working there for 6 months.

In Perk's mind he has still never committed a foul in the NBA.

Ha ha, great one! ;D

There aren't really many things that bug me with the C's, except when they play one on one too much and when each of them wants to carry the load of the team on his lone shoulders.

Yeh, that seems like it might be a conflict of interests.  Not a concern?
Yup

-When Baby misses an easy basket standing right under the hoop.
-Rondo's head jerks when driving to the basket trying to draw a foul.
-How long it takes for somebody to inbound the ball.
-That they don't allow backpacks in, unless you're special and seated in a certain area.
-$4+ water because you can't bring in your own.
-Celtics dancers
-That the bench isn't long enough to seat everybody, and it's always Rondo sitting on the floor.
-No one tells us what's really going on with KG's knee.
