Indeed.  However, if she's so against dancers at Celtics games, then 
how bad can she be?

So far, the new owners seem far from "clueless".  Wise, even.  Willing 
to spend a little to make a little and win a little.  Publicly backing 
Obie, Wallace, and Leo P., even if two out three of those guys must be 
sweating each time they hear footsteps approach their office, or when 
the phone rings.  Because even if I don't think Wallace and Leo are the 
next incarnations of the anti-christ and his sidekick like so many of 
you do, I do think that, no matter what's said publicly, these owners 
are going to want to bring in their own guy(s) eventually.  It would 
surprise me if they didn't.

But they're saying the right things now: willing to spend, all about 
winning, confidence in the team, Banner 17 writing the checks.  Good 
stuff, so far.  It's heartening.

Let's just hope the team itself can avoid the Texas three-step and come 
away with at least one win.  One win, as others have mentioned, would 
make the trip a success.
