I've grown more and more appreciative of her work in covering the Celtics. I think she's one of the best beat writers out there.

Always good stuff, even when she is being critical of the team. She's feels as much pain and joy as we do for this team.

Jackie is the anti-Broussard.

If you haven't read it already, "When the Game Was Ours," co-written with Magic and Bird, is a really good read.

That guy illustrated in your Avatar is punching very well right now. I always read Jackie M. and Bob R. too. They know what this is all about. I always thought that the Celtics were mentally the toughest team in the NBA and this campaign is bearing that out. So we can all party like it is 1969 (I'm pretty sure that is how the song goes).
The beatings will continue until morale improves
