Re: Kedrick breakout game

["Dan Forant" <dforant1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mark,

Kedrick may not have arrived yet but could be on the way which would be a
huge boost. Your right anything positive right now sets off euphoric
feelings. The fact that Bremer for example is contributing and whoever else
including Baker is a 180 turn. I bitch when they suck and they have shown
signs of that. However, there is a glimmer of hope here. The Celts can win
despite management and themselves. You can't get blood out of a stone. We
are what we are, a mediocre basketball team.
