I Bleed Boston Celtic Green
Everyone that knows me knows that my favorite color is green. It's not just a passing thought either. I will actually make choices based on colors and will almost always choose green over any other color. I may have even owned the largest green hat collection in the world at one time. My girls know that my favorite color is green and love to make me things colored in green.Living in a state with no major sports teams in any sport I was never one to follow sports teams other than an occasional following of the Dallas Cowboys. That was until the day, in the early 80's, I discovered Boston Celtic basketball, Larry Bird and the parquet floor. From that moment I was hooked and began to bleed Celtic green.
The rivalry between the Celtics and the Lakers in the mid-80's had to be the best series of all time. Bird against Magic was magic. It's the only series I'd trade my Sea Green Stratocaster to see. I thought those days were gone forever...
Fast forward to 2008 and I'm bleeding Celtic green again!! The green team is up by 36 over the arch rival Lakers in game six as I'm posting this. My girls are asleep and completely unaware of the Celtic magic that has reappeared after all these years. My veins are filled with that Celtic magic once more and tomorrow I will awake, put on my sneakers, find my loudest green shirt and smile.Thank you Boston, thank you.
