    Taking a page right out of Mav's book:

    This return of the running game nonsense is just that, nonsense.

    We need something deriding and humorous, something that matches our impression of our team, because let's face it, we hate to love 'em and love to hate 'em.

    That in mind, anyone got any good ideas? I'm darn near fresh out after that barrage I put up in Dallas.

    As for my explanation of our running game, why don't we just listen to one broadcast this season and see how many times Gorman, Grande, Heinsohn, or Max tells them to run. And they never do it, so let's just forget that one ever happened.

    I'm not a Celts fan, but here are some:

    The Youth Movement begins here....

    Green is making me sick because they can't score.....

    The String of Greats continue......I hope

    When you click on the main forum screen, under where all the team names are listed, they have a little tagline underneath the name of the team.


    The Pistons one is pretty sweet, so don't sweat it.

    It's a little too biting I think, but not far off, if you ask me. The first one is a little too sunshiny, the second one is a long shot, and the third one is tongue-in-cheek enough, but not quite the right aim. You're almost there though.

    Good one, you showed me.


    Jes' kiddin'.


    I think the closest one to plausible there is the last one, but it'd be too much like that Green 17 nonsense they've been talking about for twenty years. I tire of it, and I think it's time to be a little more realistic.

    Touching, but this isn't Star Wars, it's the Celtics.

    create it you must...


    I can just picture a wrinkled little green Danny Ainge lecturing the younglings about running the break.

    [​IMG] That's a great visual. A designer needs to whip up a signature with Ainge playing the part of Yoda.

    How about this one?

    Fighting to avoid another 5 years of mediocrity.

    By five, did you mean 15? Because that is the more true and crushing number associated with the Cetlics I know.

    I was going to go for the jugular with my comeback on the Lakers tagline, but you know me, I just can't try to make rape funny.

    I used 5, because they are 5 years away from being a mediocre team in back to back decades.

    The Lakers tagline is flawless and very zen.

    Again, just can't make rape funny...


    Oh yeah, and glad to hear you worked so hard on that one, while we get saddled with this running game nonsense.


    I would also like to note that the Lakers tagline sounds distinctly Vajrayana and not Zen, thank you.

    You mean twenty consecutive years? Because that's what we're looking at in five mediocre years.

    Thank you, I came up with it.

    BTW, for the Lakers tagline, I suggest a change. How about shape's classic 'Kobe takes it to the hole with his air penis'. (Reffering to Kobe's shoe logo, which looks like a penis.[​IMG]

    Now that's catchy, I just hope nobody falls on it.

    "RIP Willie Maye"

    "Only time will tell.."

    "Atleast we got the 'Garden' back!"

    Those are all horrible.

    I don't know, I like the third one. And boy, do I ever miss Coach on those FSN broadcasts. Greg Dickerson is such a loser. He just makes me wanna reach through the screen and throttle him. Tommy and Mike actually preferred talking to a black guy than him, and if you know Tommy, that's a feat.

    My GOD!

    We've struck Gold!

    No joke, that one is perfect. Self-depricating enough, but still respect to the legends.

    Somebody give this man a cookie!

    Thank you for your contribution, I will be lobbying Shape to change it.
