NOT FUNNY by Steve Nadis

This is supposed to be funny or at least moderately amusing, as my membership in the “Moderately Amusing Webring” attests. But the Celtics just dropped a close one to the Pacers–a real heartbreaker–and I can’t find any humor in it. Usually, I can lighten things up with a joke about rock, paper, and scissors, or roofball, or something ridiculous like that (apologies to my relatives who engage in those alleged “sports”), but not right now. My feelings are too raw. For those looking for cheap laughs, sorry to disappoint. For those out for aimless kicks ahd perhaps a little uplift, you’ve come to the wrong place. On the other hand, if you’re a hurtin’ Celtics fan who wants to commiserate, brother (or sister or potted plant), I know how you feel…

    The problem is that most of the Celtic fans out there aren‘t behaving like this one.

    You‘re probably right. It is the fan‘s fault. I took full blame for the debacle of game three but bounced back for game four. I guess my intensity dropped off last night without my knowing it.

    So sorry for your loss. You have my deepest sympathy. I only hope that time will be able to ease your pain.

    I kick no one when they are down about their favorite team losing. I still remember the heartbreak of the Packers loss to Denver in the SuperB (sniff), the SuperBow(sniff, snorff), damn it, this time I TOLD myself I wouldn‘t cry……

    Sorry DrMax, I didn‘t mean to get you started. In most cases, I‘d say that time heals all wounds. In this case it appears that your pain cuts too deep. I have just two words of advice: Get help.
