Be it ever so humble....?

[Snoopy the Celtics Beagle]

Ok, weird ideas have been known to work.  So it was with great 
interest I read the article in today's Boston Globe that stated the 
Celtics ownership had remade the C's travelling camp into a "home 
away from home" rigging radios, breakfasts, and sightseeing tours to 
resemble, as closely as possible, the city of Boston.  They also 
apparently intend to import home fans to sit near the Cav's court and 
even a local musician to perform the National Anthem in the locker 
room before the game.  Supposedly, they've even dragged David Stern 
into this, gaining permission to wear their home colors in Cleveland.

Ok, it does seem silly on the surface.  But for years, regular 
travellers have done similar things, albeit on a much smaller scale, 
bringing their own alarm clocks, a personal picture, or even their 
own pillow from home, to make them rest more easily in an unfamiliar 
hotel room in a city far from home.  And, for most of them, it works.

After the last disaster in Cleveland, I'm game for anything that 
works.  Up to an including making Bill Russell throw up before the 
start of the game.

So, here's the Celtics Beagle, rooting for Boston in their home away from home!
