He's good people in my book

He’s doing quite well for a man just out of prison. He has quite the checkered past.

oh boy

In less than 48 hours, I’ve been compared to John Hollinger (over at CB) and Ruben Patterson. Are these the omens that it’s time to get out while I still can?

Just messin’ with ya, folks. :-D

Thanks for the kind words to all.

Hey Steve

Why are there so many Writers/Moderators over at Celtics Blog?

You are probably the best and the other seem superfluous. Plus, all the moderating tends to lead to people getting banned for a single, frivolous comments. Then it turns into a good old boys club and feels like 1939 Germany.

Can you use your credibility to make some positive changes over there?

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
