Random Thoughts

After sticking his tongue down the throat of the Larry O'Brien Trophy Big Baby proceeded to have the weirdest post game interview I've seen yet. I can't tell whether he's drunk, he's really going to Disney World, whether he's just trying to funny or whether he is making fun of handicapped kids? I guess it's just Big Baby being Big Baby

My only question is why is a run of titles unlikely? I already booked my plans for next year's parade.

Vs.

I’m sure most people have heard Sean Grande’s call of the last couple seconds of the Celtics game by now.    If you haven’t, it’s hilarious.   Clearly Grande spent the entire playoffs and maybe his entire life working on the perfect script to end the season with.  He was throwing out all sorts of big words like monarchy and odyssey.    His timing was impeccable.   His delivery was on point.   He must have practiced this thing at least 1,000 times in front of the mirror.     And then just about half way through it, Cedric Maxwell screams “I GOT THE BALL!” as apparently the game ball ended up in his lap.   And poof just like that he totally stole the spotlight from Grande and upstaged him in the moment that he had been waiting his entire life for.    My only question is on a scale of 1-10 how much do you think Sean Grande wanted to kill Max after he ruined his speech?

1 for no big deal and 10 for Max is a dead man. And if anybody can get me the audio of the call that would be great....

PS - For people actually complaining that we're not doing our normal blogging schedule today please go fuck yourself. I know it seems like we win a championship every other day in this city, but they are still something special deserve a complete day dedicated to it. If you don't respect that then you have a big dump in your pants. We'll be back to lots of tits, ass and sports tomorrow....

Ok so let me get this straight.   Tomorrow’s rolling rally will not stop at any point during the parade.  There will be no rally before or after the duckboats are done.  There will be no dancing from the players.  There will be no speeches from the players.   In other worlds there will be no nothing.    Umm, what the fuck kind of parade is that?   You’d think Menino would know the drill by now.  This is by far the dumbest thing he’s ever done. You might as well cancel the whole thing.    There is absolutely no point to do this without putting the team on stage and letting them do their thing.   I’m freaking pissed!    Am I the only one that is totally flabbergasted by this?  It makes no sense on any level.  Fuck Menino!

PS - We're going to keep blogging Celts shit all night long till I die of exhaustion.

This first video is how you're supposed to celebrate a major sports championship. The second two videos are how you're not supposed to celebrate a major sports championship.

THE GOOD

AND THE BAD

I think riot police should be able to shoot people in the knee caps who do shit like this.

You know what the best part of this is? If these teams started a new series tomorrow all these morons would pick the Lakers again. And I'm not even joking! I mean how else do you explain that the Lakers are fucking 2-1 favorites to win the NBA championship next year and the Celtics are 4-1. Honestly what planet am I on? How dumb is everybody who doesn't live in New England? Grow up already! We own your ass! Wishing that you were better than us doesn't make you better than us! The Celtics are a bizillion times better than LA. It will take a miracle for us not to repeat. Hell the Lakers couldn't beat Detroit or Cleveland, nevermind us. And spare me the Andrew Bynum crap. Yeah he's a good player but he's not fucking Bill Russell. He's not going to make the Lakers 40 pts better. The Lakers get crushed in this series with or without Andrew Bynum. But I guess I shouldn't complain that the world is stupid. I'll just keep hammering the Celts every game and retire in like 2 years. Nothing like crushing the bookie and winning world championships at the same time. It just doesn't get any better than that. Drink up Boston...

"Is this the trophy"?

Listen I've seen a lot of games in my career and I'm pretty sure this was the loudest "Nah Nah Nah Nah" chant I've ever heard in my life. Folks, this is exactly why you want home court advantage throughout the playoffs -- not only do you get Games 6 and 7 in your own building, but if your team does clinch it, your fans get to do the "Nah Nah Nah Nah" chant at the end of the game, which incidentally Barstool Sports rated back in October 2006 as the greatest chant to do at a sporting event. Anyway, the Lakers and their fans obviously heard every word of this and I guarantee you it added insult to injury, even after losing by 40.

I got to be honest. I'm very happy for Greg Dickerson. I feel like he was kind of a part of this and deserved it. It looked like he was 2 seconds away from having an orgasm here.

Rate 1 to 10 how much Dickerson loved getting sprayed with beer/champagne.     

- thank to bon for the tip

Europeans are weenies. The play of Gasol, Vujacic and Rachmoninov was softer than John Tomase's muffin tops. Collectively they played like the kind of worthless, slimy Eurotrash that only gets aggressive with drunken American tourist chicks. They showed all the willingness to help out defensively that their countries showed in Bosnia. Pau Borat set a new Guinness record as World's Smallest 7-footer and the only hit Vaginacic dished out was to the water boy who tried to interrupt his tears. They were like the Swedes Don Cherry always talks about, demonstrating the NBA equivalent of being unwilling to go into the corners.

Tim Donaghy deserves a ring. David Stern has bided his time like a State Pen lifer through 22 years of Spurs-Pistons Finals waiting for a series like this to come along. Do you think there's any way this Finals wouldn't have gone seven games if Donaghy hadn't told the world what we already knew: that the league, through the refs, manipulates the playoffs to get maximum exposure?

9 o'clock starts are an abombination. It's not like I get up to milk the cows or can't go into work knowing I'm tired and they're not getting my best effort, but the NBA is committing fiscal suicide having every game end after midnight. My kids entire school saw as many minutes of Finals basketball as they've seen of "There Will Be Cum" on Comcast On Demand.

For those of you who weren't out celebrating, rioting, getting laid, etc. last night you missed one of the greatest post-game interviews of all time with KG and Michelle "You Look Good" Tafoya. First of all, ABC had some balls putting him on the air because KG was wearing out the "bleep" button from the sidelines the last 4 minutes of the game. There were 5-10 second stretches at the end there where the sound was completely muted. So considering the situation, it was certainly a risky play by the folks at Disney putting KG on with Tafoya. However, it turned out to be their greatest decision since the Tea Cup ride because KG delivered one of most entertaining post-game interviews of all time. I was hysterical, then I was nervous, then I was hysterical again. Kind of like meeting Carl Everett circa 2001. Anyway, this is just classic - something tells me Bill Russell never coached him on the speech.

Everybody knows that I'm a Boston guy. I hate the Lakers, blah, blah, blah. But even I turned to my buddy at one point last night and was like "can somebody fucking cover Ray Allen please?" I mean Ray wasn't just open on his 3 point shots. He was WIDE THE FUCK OPEN. I would have though the Zen Master may have tried to switch things up like maybe putting a guy on him or something nuts like that. I mean I'm not NBA coach but I do know that when a guy is hotter than the dudes in NBA Jam who are literally on fire you may want to cover him. Anyway to honor Ray's awesome NBA Finals we ordered up some more Jesus Shuttlesworth Shirts. We weren't going to but I felt like I owed it to him....

Oh the memories! Truth be told the Hawks were a much more formidable foe than the Lakers. Regardless does everybody remember this gem from Gerry Callahan a month ago. When he started talking about monumental choke jobs when the Atlanta series was tied at 2! God the Boston Media is so pathetic. We called them out for it right away, but it's still hilarious to look back at how wrong they were.

"Celtics On brink of biggest collapse in Hub history"

"They spent the first six months of the season making NBA history, and here they are, flirting with history again. If they do not win two of their next three games, the 2007-08 Celtics will be remembered for only one thing:  The worst collapse in Boston sports history. There is a bright side, though. If they lose this series, at least they’ll get to throw out the first pitch at a Red Sox [ team stats] game in the year 2030. And it might take that long to get over this kind of collapse. It is almost unthinkable. The Celtics would be only the second No. 1 seed ever to lose a seven-game series to an eighth seed, and the first one was Dallas, which barely counts. A loss to the Hawks would be worse than the Patriots[ team stats] falling to the Giants in the Super Bowl because at least Rodney Harrison [ stats] tried to cover David Tyree A loss to Atlanta would be worse than any postseason loss the Red Sox ever suffered because, let’s face it, there is no equivalent to the Hawks in the baseball playoffs."

Boston.com - Boston police arrested 14 people early this morning when some celebrations turned rowdy after the Celtics routed the Lakers in the NBA Finals. A crowd traveled from the Garden to Faneuil Hall, with some revelers tearing apart park benches, flipping over flower pots, trash barrels, and newspaper boxes, and trying to light fires with the garbage. A group smashed a window in a building on Canal Street.

This I don't get. The Celtics just won their 17th World Championship and you and your buddy celebrate by dressing up as solo cups? I mean obviously these guys aren't Celtics fans, but still why would you do this? Are you that desperate for attention? I guess it's kind of funny but more in a "gee what an asshole these guys are" type of way. Also if I was a cop I'd just arrest anybody wearing any skateboarding paraphernalia or guys who take their shirts off. Both things are sure fire signs that you're up to no good. Still it was pretty good crowd last night after the game. The police are starting to get the hand of this after doing it like 93 times. No more shooting pellet guns into crowds which is always nice.

PS - My camera got big game cameraitis. It died in the 2nd quarter at McFadden's. Way to come through in the clutch camera. Anybody can take pictures at a Meet the Model event. But right when I needed my camera the most, it freaking conked out. So if you have any funny or great pics or videos send them along.

Hey there beautiful.....

First of all, let me start by saying I’m shitfaced.  Second of all, I’m drenched in beer from people doing the champagne thing in the bar.  Third of all I’m shitfaced.  Having said that I feel like I need to write a quick blog before I pass out.   Now I’m not one of those guys who like to say I told you so.  So I’m not going to sit here and brag about how at the beginning of this series I said that the Lakers being a 2 to 1 favorite was one of the biggest jokes of all time.  I’m not going to say that I told you the Celtics would not only win this series but they’d dominate it.   I’m not going to say that I told you Paul Pierce was just as good as Kobe Bryant.  I’m not going to bring up how everybody except the Stool overlooked the fact that the Celts were 25-5 against the West this year.   I’m not going to mention how I was 7-0 in mortal locks this series.   The bottom-line is that bragging about that type of shit just isn’t my style.    And more importantly anybody can look like a genius when you live in Boston.  I mean we fucking own this world!   Honestly how many fucking parades can one city have?   Congratulations Boston, we did it again!  And to everybody who doesn’t like us.  Fuck off and suck our rings!
