Bruce Allen gave me an opportunity to write on the Celtics in a lightly read blog called the Full Court Press in '04. It was from there I met Justin Poulin and JB Metz and co-hosted the 1st Celtics podcast, Celtics Stuff Live. I had so many great adventures from the podcast... all thanks to Bruce.

Bruce was a great man. You knew through the way he felt about the world of sports (and how it was covered) the values he held were honorable and true. We like to joke about some being "One Of The Greats" or OOTG... but Bruce Allen was truly OOTG. Rest easy, Tall Man.

also Mainers, maybe in part due to so many moving here from elsewhere, are very protective of who are natives and who are not.

Coop is one of us.

I was a touch too young to like this one, but this always made me appreciate the show.

I've read everything. Watched everything for all of my 46 years. I've seen those interviews with Sam Jones and Tommy for the NBA 50th but this effort is "different."

It's not a glossy retelling of the past, but one of respect and appreciation. I'm glad that came through for you as an interviewee.

My favorite aspect of this series is the use of interviews from those who were there. Whether from archive footage of those who've passed or interviews with all of you present at that stage... thank you for taking part.

You've got the worst facilities for players in the league, shoved out (in spectacular fashion) the GOAT coach, and now you can't even overpay to sign players.

Take a bow, Bob and Jonathan.

Drove through Lake Placid for the first time ever a couple of weeks ago on my way to my kid’s game. Found out at that moment my wife has never seen “Miracle.”

I began divorce proceedings immediately. 😂
