    Do we need a Celtics Announcing thread?

    According to this article Drew Carter is replacing Gorman full time next season: https://www.nbcsportsboston.com/nba/boston-celtics/get-to-know-new-celtics-play-by-play-announcer-drew-carter/558819/ Of course, still doesn't preclude ESPN etc. poaching him.

    Sons of Peter McNeeley- Boxing Thread

    Dig the Onlyfans sponsorship. Surely they could've paid more than MassMutual to replace the Hancock.

    Cs purged from Chinese TV

    I doubt it. They are cracking down on video games, limiting kids from playing to three hours a week. No widespread riots. Tiananmen 2021/22 ain't happening because of the Celtics making the NBA finals.

    Cs purged from Chinese TV

    Yup. The levers of control and suppression that governments now have at their disposal, coupled with new avenues of propaganda and more subtle methods of influencing, through social media, other electronic communications etc. is absolutely frightening. 20th-century style totalitarianism is...

    Cs purged from Chinese TV

    I don't think this blows over. Seems Xi Jinping is setting himself up as ruler for life and is instituting policies that could be interpreted as a second Cultural Revolution.

    iPhone 13

    Not necessarily iPhone 13 specific, but anyone here have Google Fi with their iPhone? I've been thinking about making the switch from Pixel but I wonder how functional it would be.

    Super Bowl LV: Game Thread – Kansas City Chiefs @ Tompa Bay Bucs

    Beating Brees, Rodgers, Mahomes. Anyone else ever defeat a trio of quarterbacks that great?

    Would you feel safe attending a game at Fenway tonight?

    Assuming good mask compliance and physical distancing, I'd probably feel safe, but ethically I couldn't do it. In addition to possibly infecting others, there's a message that attending a baseball game right now sends, and it's absolutely the wrong one.

    Volin, Owners, Sources, and Other Stuff. Maybe.

    Seems justified reporting this to his superiors.

    Tedy Bruschi suffered a stroke

    I'm surprised he stayed in Sturdy Memorial and didn't come up to Boston.

    2018-19 Offseason Thread

    In anticipation of being known in the future as David "10 Rings" Price.

    Mookie Betts appreciation thread

    First AL player to win MVP, Gold Glove, and Silver Slugger awards in the same season. Dominating.

    Dave Dombrowski knows more than you do

    Thought experiment also depends on who they could have traded for at peak Lars value, and if you want to stretch it further, any subsequent moves and non moves would have made a difference between the 2007 and 2013 championships. I suppose if they traded Anderson between 2008-9 and got the right...

    Edit: dumb joke. But if we are including media personalities then David Ortiz sort of counts.

    He should still be the best RB in the free agent market by a mile, will only be 27, and with one year less wear and tear. I dunno, I think someone will pay him.
