ESPN Classic is pissing me off... 

Post#1 » by meatball sub » Thu Jun 5, 2008 9:01 pm

How come every time I flip to 208 on DirecTV they're either showing crap, crap, more crap or a Celtics/Lakers game that the Celtics lost?

Last night I turned it on and they were replaying game 4 of the '87 finals in which the C's blew a 16 point lead and Magic's hook shot buried the Celts at home to take a commanding 3-1 lead. Right now they're showing game 6 from the '85 finals...I'm pretty sure the Lakers clinch the series in this one. Up next they're about to show Magic's skyhook for the 2nd time in less than a day. TRASH!

Way to show your objectivity, ESPN. When we win this series all of the Celtic doubt we've heard the past week or so will make it that much sweeter.

LET'S GO CEL-TICS!!!

And on most "Top 10 Celtics/Lakers Moments" I've seen throughout the years--not just these past few weeks--Magic's baby hook is number 1.

Ah, whatever.

Actually in their defense, espnclassic did play game 7 of 1984 finals today. It ended at 2:30, I caught the end.

It was awesome seeing them rush the court. And lakers hightailing it out of there.

They're only showing the memorable games. It just so happens that WE won those.
