Celtic Pride Page #3

Synopsis: The National Basketball Association play-offs are taking place, and the Boston Celtics are facing the Utah Jazz in a crucial series. This is also the last year that any games will be played in the Boston Garden, which is going to be torn down after the end of the season. Mike and Jimmy, two die-hard sports fans who will risk anything for the Celtics to win, are really getting into the games. The Celtics would be a sure win if it weren't for Lewis Scott, the cocky, loud-mouth star of the Jazz. After Scott himself punishes the Celtics in a bad loss, Mike and Jimmy decide to take things into their own hands by kidnapping Scott and holding him until after the crucial game takes place.

It's going to feel so good to deny

Lewis Scott the championship.

He'll never win it.

Chris McCarthy! Where have you been?

I got married. I'm up in New York.

Haven't seen you since '86,

when Buckner had that mishap.

Hey, not my fault.

- What are you doing?

- I came for the game.

- I got a ticket. 300 from a scalper.

- You're hard core.

Hey, good to see you.

- You guys want to go to Doyle's?

- See you there.

Chris McCarthy!

- You still on that Buckner thing?

- Yeah. Chris McCarthy!

- Hey, fellas.

- Hey!

One, two, Jazz!

Here we go!

- There it is.

- You can't stop me!

Come on!

Good thing they're tearing this place

down, 'cause I'm wrecking your house.

No!

- I'm on fire!

- Time-out, ref.

What just happened?

They were on fire.

Then something changed.

Yeah. What changed since first half?

Hey, guys.

- I think you should go, Chris.

- What are you talking about?

Celtics were up by 1 8,

and now they're only up by 2!

- So what?

- You're the bad luck guy.

- You're not gonna lay this one on me.

- Seriously. See you tomorrow.

- I mean it! Get out of here, now!

- Not going.

Give it.

- Are you happy now?

- Hit the road!

I paid 300 bucks for this ticket.

That's a frigging car payment!

- The nerve of that guy.

- You're telling me.

- It's over. He's gone now.

- The virus has been destroyed.

Bing! Gotcha!

Maybe your lucky seat is my

lucky seat for the second half.

So by sitting in this seat

I'm helping the Jazz? Switch!

Maybe you two should switch.

- The Celts are getting killed, Mikey.

- They've got to work it to the post.

Kiss my ass, Boston!

Switch, switch!

Switch, switch!

Everybody, this is not working.

It was a bad idea!

Back to your seats! Now!

Defence!

Get Scott!

No!

They didn't use enough time.

Why didn't they listen to me?

How hard can it be?

- Lewis! I'm going to Disneyland!

- Good.

I can't believe

it's going seven games.

Well, it could be worse.

It's not like we're boat people

out in the Bermuda Triangle

in a leaky raft dying of thirst.

I wish I was a boat person!

Their team didn't lose.

- They're happy! They're on a boat.

- In the sun.

Maybe I shouldn't.

I'm starting to see double.

- Flaherty Plumbing.

- It's Patty and Timmy.

You won't believe who's in here.

Lewis Scott!

- What? You're pulling my chain.

- He just left us a $ 1 00 tip.

- "And he's dancing. What an a**hole!"

- Thanks.

Timmy and Patty are bar keeping

at the Roxy. Guess who just walked in?

- Who?

- Lewis Scott.

They said he's dancing.

He's dancing!

I mean, he's throwing it in our face!

- The nerve of that guy.

- You're telling me.

I'm wearing Jack Nicklaus's jacket!

He got it for winning his first Masters,
