WHY A CELTIC FAN?



I can tell you why I'm a Celtic fan.  The very first Celtic game I saw,
when still really a kid, was when Cousy was playing and watching him
dribble a basketball was the most amazing thing I'd ever seen, since
until then I'd only seen high school basketball.  The second thing was
Bill Russell, this great, tall, serious-looking man in a basketball
uniform, but when he laughed, he cackled!  He still does.  Have been a
fan ever since.
Whatever type game the various Celtic teams played, they've always
played team basketball.  And, they are now all famous for the basketball
players they were, not because of the NBA hyping them.  The fans are the
best judges of talent, IMO.
