Time to Break Out the Short Shorts

I was going to do this myself, but it seems that life and it's never ending series of challenges has removed most of my free time recently. But, never fear, Deadspin is here and they beat me to it anyway! Check out this piece from Deadspin about the history of the Celtics/Lakers rivalry.



You know back a couple of weeks ago when the Chicago Bulls conveniently parlayed their long shot odds into winning the top draft choice in the draft lottery, I had to break out the conspiracy theory. Now, things are coming into full bloom as Thursday approaches and David Stern and ABC finally can give America a NBA finals that might just actually be watched. Bring on the Lakers vs. the Celtics! Just keep the short shorts in the closet.








As we saw during the "80's Night" promotion at Staples Center this year (and against the Celtics to boot), this is just ill advised. To quote mid-90's "Saturday Night Live" - "Who are the ad wizards who came up with this one?"
