R.I.P. Red
Sad news this evening, according to ESPN's website Red Auerbach has passed away. While I'm at heart a Spurs fan now and forever, I've long been an admirer of Red's. The legendary coach who guided the Boston Celtics to so many championships that it's hard to keep track, including a never-to-be-repeated EIGHT straight titles from 1959 to 1966. His trademark end-of-game victory cigars were just one of many things that made the man greatness personified.
Rest in Peace Red, you will be missed.

I tell you...I was raised on the victories of the Celtics as a child of the 80's. Red was a class act all the way. :(
