Celtic fans don't have a fuckin' thing to complain about. You tanked the season. You have 16 championship banners. You had several of the greatest players of all time. And it doesn't stop with basketball. The Patriots won three Super Bowls. The Red Sox won the world Series in 2004 and have a 293-game lead in the AL East. So shut your mouths.</p><p>The only football team New Jersey really has is Rutgers (thank god they don't suck anymore). We don't have a baseball team. We're not even going to have a basketball team soon. We depend almost entirely on New York for our sports jollies. Even the Knicks suck now! Remember when they passed on Bird in the 1978 draft? The last championship a New Jersey team won* was the 1974 ABA Finals.</p><p>*Nobody likes hockey.</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/698385232662164240-369538740010396693?l=populardrink.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Garyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06234835727153367623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-698385232662164240.post-79399613592627336262007-05-19T14:29:00.000-07:002007-05-19T15:58:15.493-07:00Basketball is the most entertaining sport ever created. That being said, one of my biggest complaints about the NBA is one of the most childish you will ever hear: the uniforms don't look as cool as they used to. I know teams feel like they need to keep up with the times, and updating your club's jersey is a viable way to do so. And a fan that judges a team based on their jersey is a fan you do not want. But cool looking jerseys ARE awesome. I especially like the ones with the football uniform numbers. Not those bitch-ass Cincinnati Bengals jersey numbers. I'm talking Jets, Giants, basically every other team in the league. And we're off:<br /><br /><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>Detroit Pistons: What is this? Chauncey Billups is number rectangle?
