Re: THE SPURS

I'd take the choker, without a blink. What are the Celts running a "Big
Brother" do, don't think so. So let's see, we don't like chokers, but
like(d) the Chief and his drugs and female beating, Dennis Johnson's wife
beating, Lewis's appetite for drugs, Cowan's taxi driving, what was up with
that? Battie's dragging of Boston police officers, how bout rape charges
for some of our present employees? Larry's illegit kid?

The Celtic myth except for their record is just that a myth, a closely
guarded secret, every game I hear the "Celtic Pride" stuff. Baloney. We and
the organization just want winners, no matter what. If your going to talk
the talk, then walk the walk. 

I was never a Knicks fan, but this season they've earned my respect. It
looks like half an Eastern team is nearly as good as a healthy West team.
