cheap reference

< Whoever wrote the Globe article on the Dallas game included a cheap

Why is that a cheap shot? After all, where did that "official" 
measurement come from ... his agent or Ubi?   Have you eyeballed 
his height standing next to Powe?

No doubt we are all probably making too much of his height. 
My opposition to drafting him was simply because we already 
had undersized power forwards in Gomes and Powe and really 
needed more size up front.   However, I really hope we don't 
fill this need by... ugh... re-signing Kandiman for a third season, 
as per your suggestion.   That would finally drive me to the window 
ala madman Peter Finch, and shout:
I'M MAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!

Honestly, Gene, it amazes me how the so-called "real Celt 
fans" (the optimists) are willing to remain sooooo patient 
and settle for soooo little as year goes into year goes 
into year.   You would think after many years of predicting 
45-55 victories in the Snoopy Poll they would become a bit 
more cautious.   Their agenda is as much of an agenda as 
the so-called pessimists, n'est ce pas?   The only difference
is that their comments aren't referred to as cheap shots.

Yin yang, yin yang.   All part of the tapestry of an interesting
Celt forum.
