Jim...you're right. Celtic fans are not only smarter and more sophisticated
than Bulls fans, but we're also morally superior. If the greatest player in
the history of the game ever tried pulling this crap on us, we'd definitely
demand his head. Six championships in eight years?!? That would mean
nothing to us. We'd be begging management to break up a championship team
and start over again with a bunch of really nice guys who knew how to
negotiate properly.
