As I mentioned in my original post, Fox has won two games this year with
last-second jumpers.  Therefore, you certainly *can* count on him when the game
is on the line.  And since I also said people are entitled to their opinions, I
am not promoting blind loyalty.  What I would like to see, however, are opinions
based on facts and logic, rather than rants with statements that border on the
absurd.  I simply wonder: is John Diaz really a Celtics' fan, or is his motive
to provoke the list's subscribers (which he apparently has done)?
