Mike Gorman getting chalked etc.

[Snoopy the Celtics Beagle]

You are correct.  We don't deserve the "service" of having talcum 
powder thrown in our faces.  And the last *I* heard, the Boston 
Celtics were paying him a considerable sum of money to play 
basketball.  I like his ability on the court and his willingness to 
work hard.  That doesn't prevent me from DISliking his powdering Mike 
Gorman's face every game.
