Who wants to come along on an EPIC Celtics journey?

There really is something about being an underdog that does it for me as a Celtics fan.  And there is something about being flat out disrespected that does it for me a little more.

The Celtics are 9-1.  We have the best record in the league and we have the best team in the league. It's that simple.

Yet nobody wants to talk about us as a serious threat to win the championship. Hell, nobody even wants to give us the respect of being a legit chance to win the Atlantc Division!  Even though the Celts are 9-1 and the 76ers are 7-4, current odds online have the totally disfunctional 76ers at -200 to make $100 to win the division.  The Celts are +300!  For you non gambling types, that means if you bet $100 you will get back a total of $400 if the Celtics win the division.  This is just total disrespect.  And I'm going to do something about it.

My plan for next week is to board a plane to Las Vegas for a one day business trip.  I am going there to take their money.  Plain and simple.  The Celtics sit at roughly 20-1 to win the NBA title this year and I am going to make a large wager on that outcome.  The Celts are better than the 76ers.  And we are better than the Milwaukee Bucks.  Out West we will have to contend with one of the LA teams or possibly Denver, who I think is a sneaky possible upset team out there.  The Celts can beat each of these teams.  Yes it will be a battle, but isn't that what we want as fans?  Let's be underdogs to the end and shove it in people's faces when we win it all.

I will be writing about my travels as they happen next week.  Stay tuned.  I want you blog readers to come along with me on what is sure to be an EPIC season long journey.  The rest of the country apparently still has no clue, but our Celtics are going to be the 2019-2020 NBA champions!!!

Rules of survival: When search-and-rescue turns into body recovery

 How the Hell did this happen? Two days after 19-year-old Emily Sotelo was supposedly dropped off in Franconia Notch (NH) at roughly 5:00 AM ET, Sunday, November 20, 2022 by her mother, to hike several mountains alone, the search continues for the young lady. Photo by Linda Lane The information from news agencies indicated that Emily started hiking the trails while it was still dark. She was supposedly wearing only sneakers, a coat and workout pants. I can persona;ly attest that the weather in the area was very cold with high wind speeds, and gaining elevation on the trails would only add to the horrendous conditions. Ms. Sotelo was reportedly a seasoned hiker, but had little or no experience hiking in winter. At the peaks, temperatures on that Sunday dropped to zero degrees with a wind chill of minus-30 degrees. It is beyond my comprehension to imagine a hiker-of-experience tackling that kind of travel - in extreme weather - with only basic clothes and few (or no) supplies. I have hik

The Elm Street Nightmare

 A true-and-suspenseful horror tale of haunting, homicides and the hunt for triple-murderer, Daniel Laplante - as told by the cops that were there By Lt. Thomas Lane (Ret.)  Daniel Laplante - cold, calm, clever, calculating- Photo: YouTube   Elm Street  surfaces on four occasions in the Laplante saga: 1.) He  resided on Elm Street  in Townsend, Massachusetts 2.) He  kidnapped a woman  at gunpoint on  Elm Street, Pepperell , Massachusetts 3.) He was arrested and transported to Massachusetts State Police Barracks on Elm Street in Concord . 3.) He was  tried, convicted   and sentenced for the murders at  Superior Court , corner of  Elm Stree t and Gorham Street, Lowell, Massachusetts. When evil and cleverness reside in the same mind, the stage is often set for true horror. Such was the case with triple-murderer, Daniel Laplante . As a 16-year old , he quickly transitioned from: Minor thefts and breaking into homes To: Taunting and threatening a father and his two daughters as an unseen

Did the Celtics Kevin McHale really have a wingspan of 8-feet?

According to many sources, the Celtics Kevin McHale did indeed have an estimated wingspan of 8-feet. One of those sources is Wikipedia, as seen below: Kevin McHale American basketball player DescriptionKevin Edward McHale is an American retired basketball player who played his entire professional career for the Boston Celtics. He is a Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, and is regarded as one of the best power forwards of all time. He was named to the NBA's 50th Anniversary All-Time Team.
