NBA officials take a lot of heat.  Sometimes they deserve it, sometimes they don't.  Right now, Bill Spooner, the fine gentleman you see on the right, deserves some heat.  And here's why: Bill Spooner said he has "honestly" refereed NBA games for 22 years, but was investigated by the league after AP writer Jon Krawczynski posted a message [...]

Most funny things on Twitter start with Russ Bengtson.  And when the news broke that Troy Murphy was signing with Boston, he said "Troy Murphy's number in Boston should just be a shamrock." So I got to thinking.  The C's really only have like five numbers they can use anymore.  So why not give Murphy [...]

The C's were down another body today… as Paul Pierce took a sick day.  That left them with 10 guys for practice.  "We don’t worry about body count," said Rivers. "[The Lakers are] not going to worry about the body count, I can guarantee you that. We’ll be ready, we’ll be fine."  But Rivers admitted [...]

Jermaine O'Neal has been a Twittering maniac today… most notably announcing to the world that he'll be back when the C's need him Twitter / Jermaine O'Neal: I know I haven't been out … via kwout Now I can really appreciate the sentiment here.  Good for Jermaine for working towards that goal and promising to [...]

So, in the spirit of Twitter’s “Follow Friday”, I’m going to shoutout some truly devoted C’s fans from all over the world. I’m always amazed at how far and wide CelticNation reaches. [...]

So Paul Pierce tweeted about "taking his talents to South Beach"… a funny little dig that some reporters had to immediately rush to the Miami locker room for a reaction.  Then Udonis Haslem took the bait and called Pierce a studio gangster.  So of course, someone had to go running back to Paul Pierce and [...]

If you didn't notice last night, Phillies ace Roy Halladay tossed a no hitter in his first ever post-season start. It's only the second no-no in postseason history (Don Larsen – Perfect Gae in 1956 World Series).  Amazing feat.  And ESPN's Tim Kurkjian has been all over the TV saying you wouldn't get this kind [...]

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. “We expect him to play a role off our bench,” Ainge said. “Shaquille has discussed those issues [with us]. He’s made it clear that they won’t become [...]

If so… can you translate this video for us? Thanks a million. Via Twitter    [...]

Plus they got his number right.  Not sure when the news conference will be… but that's a must-watch. Also… we apologize for the formatting issues today.  They're fixed now. Photo via Chris Forsberg on Twitter [...]
