RE: Supporting cast

["John Lyell" <Jlyell@concentric.net>]

Is hard to support a team of overpaid underachievers. Dana Barros was paid
his salary and brought here to put up the numbers he did previously. He has
had what 3-4 unimpressive years. (I actually thought he played well last
year), and definitely can not play the point position. He is not a play
maker and makes far too many rookie mistakes.

Are we supposed to sit back and cheer and say " Well at least we gave them a
good game" as the Bulls beat us for the second time this year as Brand
dominates Walker ?

Amen Douglas and Alex.  Don't hold your collective breaths though.  You've
both been associated with this list long enough to know the reality.

I purposely avoid posting after a Celtic win and so do most of the fans who
detest certain Celtics.  It is extremely ironic that those who supposedly
want our guys to win, are most vocal only when we lose.  I have brought this
same subject up in the past, yet the pattern continues.  Oh well.

Cecil (will support, not belittle, my team)

P.S.  There is a good possibility that I may be in LA when the C's visit on
Feb. 26.  I'll do my best to cheer them on and will let you know what I'll
be wearing.  Something kelly green :-)
