Don't Count Them Out

Shank gives us an update on the Celtics and Bruins in the 'playoffs':
You’re never as good as you look when you win and you’re never as bad as you look when you lose.

Hall of Fame manager Earl Weaver said this regularly back in the 1970s when the Orioles were usually very good. Earl’s wisdom is my takeaway from a weekend watching the Celtics and Bruins.

The Celtics are up. The Bruins are down.

The Celtics demolished the defending World Champion Toronto Raptors, 112-94, in the Orlando bubble Sunday afternoon. It was the first game of a best-of-seven conference semifinal and gave a legion of Green People hope that their team can advance to the conference finals and maybe make it to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2010.
A decent column ensues from there. Can't wait for the sudden attitude change if, for example, the Bruins lose tonight.

  1. The minute the Bruins lose tonight he will call them frauds and that fraud knows it
