CALL ME SNAKE

The team–or, rather, “our team”–will play tonight. I have this on the highest authority and encourage you to bet as much as you can possibly afford, and more if at all possible, on the fact that they will, in all likelihood (barring unforeseen disasters, power outtages, or labor strikes) play. However, the identity of their opponent, as well as the time and place of the game, are still being kept secret. News is trickling in from various contacts in the field (along with some leaks regarding purchase orders for Red Auerbach’s cigars), and further updates will follow on this and other late-breaking stories. We realize you have a choice in your Official and Unofficial Boston Celtics Updates and thank you for choosing this blog. Our hope is to reward that trust with the best, most authoritative, and yes even DEFINITIVE information that can be legally obtained, without resorting to blackmail, extortion, and physical or emotional intimidation. (Please don’t “lawyer up” on me just when we’re getting along so well.) All of us here at “Call Me Snake” are dependent on your support, as well as on funding from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation. “Genius grants” will be accepted (during business hours only, PLEASE!) and passed on immediately to their rightful recipient: the honorable Danny Ainge.
