Bill Walton also took the Celtics money for the 1986-1987 season while he

Celtics even knowing where he was!  That says much about his character and
integrity!  I cannot stand to listen to him announce!  Cousy is a god;
Walton needs to apologize to the Celtics!

Lets see are you saying that Walton should not have taken the money
because he was injured? Maybe Scotty Pippen should give back all the money
he made while he spent half the year on IR. Thats ridiculous. As for
Walton being unable to play and the Celtics not knowing where he was is
just plain wrong. The Celtics were in constant contact with him as he was
trying to rehab in San Diego. You couldnt pick up a paper in Boston that
didnt have  a daily Walton update. Give the guy a break he just couldn't
play. Could you play on a broken foot? If you don't like his style during
his commentary fine and your right Cousy is a god. Finally Walton doesn't
need to apologize to the Celtics or anyone else for that matter.
