Farm Aid in Massachusetts

I once swore that I would never again go to a concert at the Staples Center, where the parking lot police are a pain in the ass and much more abrasive than the security at the Meadows in Hartford (my preferred outdoor concert venue). But, when I heard that the Staples Center was hosting Farm Aid this year, I decided I really have no choice but to give the place another shot.

At what point do we start to get worried that Pierce probably hasn't run, picked up a basketball, or lifted anything but a joint, booze drink or the Finals MVP trophy since Game 6? I shrugged it off for a little while, figuring he deserved to celebrate... but this is getting a little ridiculous in my opinion. Nick, would like to hear your thoughts in a future post.

Mike, when I heard about him being cuffed, my first thought was "jesus, how long has he been partying in Vegas. It has to be over a month now." However, Weeks points out on Green Bandwagon that Pierce does live in Vegas in the summer and he has always come into camp in good shape. On top of that, he did pass the sobriety test. But, I share your concerns. I am planning an NBA post for Wednesday or Thursday and I will be sure to include this.
