all I'm going to say is: you whiteys all hold the ping pong paddle the WRONG way! I rarely play ping pong, but curious...how do you hold on? |

geez, give me some credit. that might have been me ten years ago, but I look quite a bit older now!
And Trav, I was taught to hold a ping pong paddle between your index finger and your thumb in a way that it looks like you're holding a spoon. It looks really funky and you lose a bit of power, but you can put away some novices easily because of the amount of spin you can put on the ball. Don't know how it started, but any Chinese ping pong player that you see on TV will be holding it that way.

so the real question tonight is that if you have to choose between *another* Boston championship team (hey, I know the rest of the country is sick of them), or a Kobe championship without Shaq, who do you pick?

Congrats Boston (and Rajon Rondo) for their 17th title!

I watched maybe 10 minutes of Game 6 tonight, I am usually working so I miss almost everything on TV, and I was impressed with how much that Boston passed the ball. Maturity plays a huge role I think. They never would have had this kind of teamwork if their stars played like they did 10 years ago. Age tends to make people a little less selfish.
Congratulations to all Celtics fans.
