Maybe now he can go back to hawking cereal

Now we have to endure 86 years of "The Curse of Lucky".

Somebody call CHB!

is the type of story that qualifies for an "Urgent Breaking News" banner on the Herald's web page.

"Blust says that long before he was Lucky, he was a kid who made bad decisions. He says he has the kind of past you don't talk about, even though he plans to write a book about it. He acknowledges that the Celtics may not like what he has to say.

''I may have to wait until I'm not Lucky anymore," Blust says, cryptically."

I accidentally scrolled all the way to the bottom of the page when I saw a giant red "MILF"...

... is (was?) the hardest working man in showbiz. Anyone who has actually been to a C's game will attest to that.

I was sitting in the second balcony long before the advent of mascots, dancers, music (aside from John Kiley), and all of the other entertainments now offered, in addition to basketball, at Celtic's games. I wanted a "fun" mascot running around about as much as I wanted to see Larry Bird lose a leg.

Having seen Lucky in action for 5 years now, I'd changed my mind. He was an enjoyable addition. MY WIFE and I will be at Sunday's game versus Minnesota. We might wear a shamrock upside-down in protest :-)

That's baffling. Now I'm really curious how extensive his charity appearances were. What type of work week constitutes that much compensation? However, it is professional sports we're talking about though ...
