Haha, fuck you, Boston!

I don't really give a fuck about Boston.  I mean, Boston is objectively the 2nd worst colonial city (behind Charleston) and they're completely irrelevant to anyone that isn't in Boston and they're all racists and even worse they're all micks and they hilariously refer to themselves as "working class" because their poor people are white and they're pretty much the Quebec of the East Coast, but I don't really give a fuck about Boston.  Why would I?  I'm sure that ant you stepped on today thought you hated him as you crushed him under your shoe but I doubt you even noticed he was there. 

But I do give a fuck about Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce.  Fuck those guys.  Kevin Garnett is Chris Pronger if Chris Pronger was a pussy who was terrified of his own irrelevance while Paul Pierce is a complete douche bag.  Complete.  I just hate him so Goddamn much.  I'm trying to think of a hockey player to compare him to and the best I can come up with is... Doug Gilmour?  Remember when people said Doug Gilmour was good and tried to play up a rivalry between Gilmour and Gretzky even though Gretzky was way, way, way, waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than Gilmour?  That's Paul Pierce.  He's a fairly good player who has been lucky enough to play for a city that overrates their players.  That's it.  Comparing Pierce to Kobe Bryant is like comparing your balls to your dick; both are pretty cool, yeah, but one is a lot more involved in getting the job done than the other. 

But the worst thing, and I mean the WORST thing that I can not stand, are pundits who needlessly antagonize opposing fanbases just because they mistakenly think pageviews equal worthiness.  Guys like Dan Shaughnessy and TJ Simers are terrible and shouldn't be allowed near a computer.  Sports writing should be used for rational discussion, not for needless baiting.  If you see any writing like that, let me know so I can admonish said writer appropriately.

And actually, the worst thing in the world is writing while drunk.  Don't do that.

 


(P.S. Derek Fisher still sucks.)
