Glen Davis may want a pal in larger place with the Celtics
We might not have this chance this yr, however who hasn’t bought a bleacher seat at a Main League Baseball recreation after which someday after the third inning — or third beer, whichever comes first — tried to discover a higher view, or acquired some free live performance tickets at their highschool part-time job and moved down a pair sections after realizing simply how excessive up the nosebleed seats are at Bridgeview Stadium in suburban Chicago.
If a season-ticket holder did not unload tickets to a recreation they couldn’t attend, why let that seat go to waste? Nevertheless, former NBA champions attending a recreation — on the stadium through which they received a championship — normally don’t have to aim this caper.
An ABC digicam confirmed Glen “Massive Child” Davis sitting behind one of many baskets throughout its Sunday afternoon broadcast of the Boston Celtics’ 126-120 victory towards the Brooklyn Nets. That digicam confirmed Davis reside in that unlucky second while you get caught making an attempt to see the sport from a greater spot. He was then compelled to utter that oh so acquainted phrase of defeat: “These yall seats.” No query mark wanted, that’s an announcement.
Davis might need been extra irritated than embarrassed, as a result of who exhibits as much as the sport with two minutes left within the third quarter? Boston space visitors may not be completely clear at 1 p.m. on Sunday, however arriving on the recreation two hours after tip off? That’s ridiculous. It’s so late within the recreation that the refreshment stands are about to shut. Don’t let me get so snug in your seat that I overlook that I didn’t purchase it. At this level, my lifestyle has gotten too excessive to maneuver backwards.
I’d virtually be keen to begin a Go Fund Me to get higher seats for Davis, if it wasn’t for that lame t-shirt he was sporting. It was a t-shirt with the Celtics’ brand on it that reads, “respect the brand.” There isn’t any one lamer in sports activities, athlete or non-athlete, than the individuals who had been offended that point Kyrie Irving stepped on Fortunate the mid-court brand.
Not solely is Fortunate not an actual boy, however made out of paint and wooden as a substitute, gamers step on all of it recreation each season. Somebody is actually standing on Fortunate’s silly face earlier than each residence for 30 seconds ready for the referee to throw up the opening tip. Gamers cease on it, reduce on it, bounce on it, stomp on it, sweat on it, typically even bleed on it. And people who love the Celtics had been upset that Irving aggressively stomped on it after being jeered for a complete recreation.
I do know sports activities are emotional, however individuals this has to cease. Until somebody digs the brand out of the center of the sphere or court docket, and steals it like an outdated fraternity prank, nothing unhealthy has occurred. For these of you who really feel in a different way you should have to look at the brand get pooped on, or not less than compelled to depart your seats on a nationwide broadcast whereas a chyron shows your authorized title and nickname.
