The pressure certainly is on Boston to win. However, time flies...it was only a thin year ago that I had to listen to the media platforms and Boston fans everywhere instruct me that Joe Mazzulla needed to be terminated with extreme prejudice, and Jaylen Brown unceremoniously be shown the door for the first trade offer that was made...regardless.
Huh...maybe all those folks weren't as smart as their parents told them they were.
The Boston fandom's U-turn and resulting whiplash reminds of the greatest sports commercials ever (and I'm old enough to remember the Miller Lite spots well) - the NFL's "Time to Get Your Story Straight" spots. So many memorable lines, and so relevant in watching these Celtics and, in particular, their fans blatantly write revisionist history ("Hey Tommy, I told you in 2016 that Jaylen was going to be a stud! I told you!! Memba?").
Here are my favorites from the NFL spots:
- "The closest Eli Manning will ever get to a Super Bowl ring is when he gives Peyton a manicure."
- [Laughing at a fantasy draft table] "Wes Welker is your upgrade?? He's this tall!"
- "Of course I didn't draft Drew Brees...what am I, an idiot?"
- [A man with an anesthesia mask at the dentist removes it and says] "Hey Doc, you know what else? The Dolphins are going to the Super Bowl." To which the dentist replies, "I think we can get started now."
Hey Boston, if they hang another banner it will be time to get your story straight...
