Game 6 Loose Balls

Every aspect of this game has been covered. Here is a simple list of thanks: Thank you Wyc Grousbec. You put your money where your mouth is. Thank you Paul Pierce. It's been a roller coaster ride for you in Boston but you stuck it out through some tough times and you have been rewarded -- and rewarded us -- with an NBA championship. Thank you Kevin Garnett. You made basketball matter in Boston for the first time sime George H. Bush was president. Thank you Ray Allen. That jump shot came to life in the Finals. Thank you Danny Ainge. You had a plan, you stuck by that plan when everyone was calling you an idiot and that plan brought us Banner 17.

Thank you Doc Rivers. What you were doing worked.

Thank you Rajon Rondo and Kendrick Perkins. You two stepped up your games and took the C's from contender to champion.

Thank you James Posey. Please do not leave us.

Thank you Eddie House. Not only do you snipe 3's, your son's excitement during the season was an added bonus on the sidelines.

Thank you PJ Brown. I hope you enjoyed the first one so much that you will come back for more.

Thank you Kevin McHale. I love Al Jefferson as much as anyone but, well, you know.

Thank you Sully's Tap. The Baseball Tavern of the Garden neighborhood.

Thank you Halftime Pizza. Slices as big as a house and a good draft beer.

Thank you Kobe. I just wish you had asked me before you left for the post office in Game 6, I had some mail I needed to be dropped off too.

Thank you to the entire 2007-2008 NBA Champion Boston Celtics. I am not a bandwaggon fan, I spent many a night on Causeway Street in the decade of Rick Pitino - Ricky Davis and I never lost hope. You rewarded that dedication. THANK YOU!!!
