HEARD IT ON THE RADIO -- by Steve Nadis

I want to tell you about something exciting. Last night I was doing the dishes (don't worry, that's not the exciting part) while listening to the final 15 minutes of the Celtics-Timberwolves game on the radio. In this era, when a single sports bar may have a dozen large TV screens, listening to sports on the radio may seem rather passe'. But I have to say, listening to the end of that game on the radio--which the Celtics won by a single point--was one of the more thrilling experiences I've had as a sports fan, and with what's been going on in Boston over the last several years, there's been a lot to choose from. So don't get rid of all your old radios in favor of large-screen, hi-def plasma TVs. Because that old radio can still deliver the magic upon occasion, as it did for me last night...

1 - Snark (at least I'm not calling you Sweetie): I was at the game last night. It was a horrible game if you were a Celtic fan, until the last 2 minutes, which were exciting and amazing. Sebastian Telfair absolutely torched the Cs until the end. (Comment this)

2 - Sounds like I tuned in at the right time -- in the final minutes, that is. And getting back to my earlier point, maybe this game was better on the radio than live. (Comment this)

3 - that musta been the least cerebral, most-engaging, up-to-the-second post I've read here at C.M.S.
