Why can't Josh get as excited as he likes, JB?  After all, he's only 
"voicing an opinion".  He *did* decide for himself what was "dumb or 
overbearing" and said so.  What's the problem?

You might as well ask Forant not to be so much of a curmudgeon.

I happen to agree with Josh -- though our captains (and non-captains) take 
some ill-advised shots, ten a game?  I don't see that.  When I think 
"gunner" I think last year's Jerry Stackhouse, not Walker or Pierce.

Oh, wait, I forgot, the Celtics lost the last game.  That means that we 
need to put half the list on suicide watch, and wade through the usual 
"this team sucks and will *never* compete" and "which stiff can we trade 
for?" posts.  My mistake.
