Counting Chickens Before They Hatch?

The media is 100% positive the Celtics are going to win!? Already talking about how they "ARE" going to win it tonight? Now don't get me wrong, I think the Celts are and should win the title, but the Lakers are no slouches! Stranger things have happened! I just wish they would report it as it happens. Not to mention the Celts flight got delayed and they should be pretty exhausted from the trip......so I hope folks are not counting their chickens before they hatch!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Has Menino already scheduled the parade?

I predicted celts in 6 and was hoping they would get it done out there but it wasn't meant to be. Now I just hope they get it done tonight.

3-3 in the 08 postseason with Salvatore officiating. That I did not know.

I predicted the celts in 7, but it would be a tremendous relief. Its going to come down to our bench.

but the way the celts they have been playing, I think we may end this tonight. Lakers barely escaped with Win. Our bench has outscored there bench by some 9 pts.

Kobe will try to live at the line

Perks gonna give it a go. If he can play at reasonably close to 100%, celts win easy IMO.

Well Ronnie there is a huge difference! The Superbowl is one game.....so you only have one shot! Win or go home! There are 7 games in the NBA Championship Series and if one is foolish enough to think the Lakers can't climb back in this and take it away......they are truly a fool!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
