C's WIN BANNER 18 BY 18 on 6/17/24!!! (the numbers of the late Bill Russell, Hondo, and Sam Jones) I AM SO FUCKING HAPPY FOR THIS TEAM!!!!!!!!!! LET'S GOOOO!!!!! SUCK OUR COLLECTIVE DICKS, KYRIE!
Crypto PP did it again!!!
Listen to those green bleeders giving the Jays their well-deserved flowers!!! After seven seasons & 107 playoff games together, the Jays are finally NBA CHAMPIONS!!!!
The field goal percentages might've not been super sexy, but these stars played elite defense and combined for 17 assists.
What a father. What a player. What a moment. I COULD CRY!!!
That's a great question, Jayson!
How about that Eastern Conference AND NBA Finals MVP, Jaylen Brown!?!?!
Marcus may be gone, but his legacy of grit and balls lives on.
The C's won 80 games this year: 64 in the regular season and 16-3 in the playoffs, highlighted by a 10-game winning streak over three rounds. That is some all-time dominance. The 2023-24 Boston Celtics are NBA champions, and this team has no intentions of slowing down. I'm just so fucking happy for these guys and also exhausted because I couldn't sleep last night. I felt like a kid on Christmas Eve. I was at a music festival in NH this weekend and didn't see a second of Game 4, so it was like it never happened. Honestly, I was souped. I wanted the C's to lose and win it at home tonight like they just fuckin' did!!
This is the first Boston title in the post-COVID world, and while my entire worldview and relationship with sports have drastically evolved, the wait is ovahhh!
The C's are the one team that I still have that fire with. Sure we've won in it all in my lifetime, but that was 16 years ago, with plenty of heartbreak in-between. I wanted this ring so badly. After all the close calls, It was their fucking time. I've watched the Jays grow and battle through years of adversity. It's been an absolute delight. It was all worth it for this moment. I'm sorry, the blog rust is real right now, but idgaf.....THE C'S ARE CHAMPS!!! mood:
I haven't published it yet, but I wrote a brain dump at work about my state of mind going into this game. I'm just gonna soak this championship in. It's time to watch all the post-game stuff. I promise I won't have a 3 week break between blogs because I do wanna dive deeper into this incredible season, but here's that brain dump as I left it when the school day ended:
I'm trying to do some writing during my free period so I can nap guilt-free before the gym & Game 5 of the NBA Finals: Presented by YouTubeTV, but I'm struggling to shake the rust off. That's bound to happen when you neglect your craft, but with school ending soon, I hope to find the time to create again. Every blog I've written in the past threeish months has started with an apology for my lack of content, and I am sorry for that. I hate that this is the current state of DOL, but the reality is that I haven't had the emotional stamina to write. Writing and freedom of expression are everything to me; I just haven't felt up to creating lately. I'm exhausted from existence. Like genuinely, what is the point? I could write the most profound thing ever written, and nobody would see it. I could channel all this ache into something hilarious, and there wouldn't be a single laugh. Billionaires will continue to rape the planet and her population while decent people like me get worn down and broken. I'm struggling to see the point when the worst people humanity has to offer are the ones "climbing the ladder." It is wild how the C's are on the brink of a championship, and I've barely covered it on DOL. You best believe I've been bleeding/pissing/sweating/crying/puking green this entire playoff run. I was even at the Garden for Game 1 of the ECF, and once 18 is officially clinched, I want my first tattoo to be of Jaylen's game-tying shot. (PICTURE OF THE SHOT) The C's have brought me some joy, but it's mostly just relief when they don't lose. TBH, I'm souped they lost Friday. I selfishly wanted them to win at home tonight so I wouldn't miss it (I was at a music festival w/o service...I bought the tickets months ago before the Finals schedule came out). Of course, I'm going to choose the C's because of how it affects others and not just me (hashtag good guy), but if I could pick between the C's winning it all or having her back in my life, I'd choose the latter without hesitation. Nothing matters more in this life than love. Even as I've been actively improving my life (77 straight days working out and counting), I'm still wicked sad and feel defeated for a multitude of reasons. I'm constantly worried and uneasy about my own BS (like being able to afford to survive) but, more importantly, the world at large. How do more people not care about humanity right now? If I'm not at school, I'm either sleeping/alone in thought, trying to sleep, doing something to distract my brain from the fears and pain that consume it, or at the gym trying to better myself but counting down the minutes until I can crawl back into my bed. I am pretty bummed out about how I currently don't have plans for the game tonight. I don't want to watch the C's win their first championship since I was 16 alone, but the options are limited when it's a weeknight and you're 32. The few friends I have who are a part of my life are busy/live out of town. It's been years like this, but I still struggle with feeling unwanted, and that world has passed me by. There used to be a time when I stressed out over having to turn down plans in fear of hurting feelings, and now it's like unless I plan something out months in advance, it's almost impossible to spend time with people. As a spontaneous kind of dude, I fucking haaaate it. That sucks, and it's a minute piece of this equation for why I'm unhappy and terrified. Like, despite the lack of writing lately, I know deep down I'm still fanfuckingtastic at this. I'm just losing my damn mind living in such a cruel, fucked up world. The loneliness does not help, lolol! Go Celtics. Hopefully, I won't end up watching them win it all alone, like Stephen Glansburg.
I did Glansburg it, but it's okay though...especially if I end up at the parade. Fingers crossed it's on Juneteenth so I don't have to that the day off cause I am straight up not going if it's on another weekday :/
Every player on this team deserves their love, but that will come at a later date. I'm leave you with this...HOW ABOUT RHODE ISLAND'S OWN, JOE MAZZULLA!?!?
P.S.
If you wanna get your Tom Petty swag on, this is the video for you. Fuck the h8rs!!!!!
