Re: I was at that miserable game!



Mike Gorman took note of that back-and-forth on the telecast, and
defended the young man's honor. If only we'd known who we were looking
at!

In Portland as they might elsewhere, they flash an opposing teams fan on the board during a time-out, to get the crowd to boo, then they show a mind numbed Blazer fan, hypnotically dancing to the electronic 120 decibel hip hop hoo ha, to get applause.  Well my kid in his Bird jersey and hat, was up there many times, pumping his fist of all things at the board, like some kind of punk, daring all comers to bring it on.  They did of course and very nicely I might add, but where else can an 8 year old Celtic fan, get this kind of recognition?  Already he can't wait for next year, as he is bringing a sign, noting something like "16 Banners" or "Rafters Baby".
