What I am confused about is why all of a sudden you are making things personal. I have enjoyed your takes along with Baja's along with...
Because maybe they are the exception. Jealous, yes but you can't or shouldn't begrudge excellence, just tip your hat to them
I should want the Celtics to win having lived on the Cape when I was little but Ainge sort of soured that.
