Long Winter Ahead...

Well the NBA players and owners inability to find common ground has most likely killed the 2011-2012 season, and along with it any chance (however remote it might have been) of the Celtics new Big Three could capture a second ring together.

Peter May agrees, and says that -- besides stadium employees, restaurant workers and bar owners near NBA arenas, the Celtics and their almost shut & locked window may be the most hurt by this mess.

I'm not going to sit here and type about the details of the negotiations that no one wants to read. I am not going to sit here and tell you one side is more at fault than the other. I am not going to because you don't care, and quite frankly, I really don't know all the info...

I merely read just enough to get an idea of what is happening...and I read enough to realize that it is probable that I won't be able to partake in a long-standing winter, family tradition....Watching the Celtics.

And I might be in the minority here...but I am definitely going to miss it.
