Dorine,

Your right and wrong. I should have used a better *subject* for my content.
I was expecting the Celts to lose *only* because they had a rough nite and
lots of minutes for Toine and Walker against Chicago. With the Western road
trip coming up, I won't be critical because the competition will be much
stiffer. I am a Celtic fan, but don't believe in whitewashing their faults.
Which are becoming fewer :-)
