Yesterday I got an e-mail from the executive producer of The Steve Mason Show at ESPN LA. They asked me to do a 5-6 minute interview about the Celtics/Pistons series live on the air. I said yes... at first I was thinking I might be too nervous but I'll suck it up. If I said no, I'd regret it.

I guess they got my e-mail from CelticsNews.com/blog, which I blog on. I don't know why they picked me, but hey... pretty sick. I didn't think many people read my blog period, let alone an ESPN guy noticing it.

You guys can listen to it here:

I'll be on at 5:54 pm ET.

from a tiny community of diehard fans a celticsblog seed grows.
nurtured by youth, promise and tons of "trade machine" fertilizer, the blog grows big and strong.

it pushes through the canopy of old growth sports media and emerges proud and green in the bright sunshine, a new power in sports media jungle.

congrats guy's your running with the big boys

I also called into the Celtics Pride program with Gilroy (also on ESPN) after the last game and I did a quick interview for HoopsAddict to preview the upcoming series

honestly I don't have enough time in the day to do all the stuff I want to with this blog these days! but it sure is fun  ;)

Are you sure you wouldn't rather be previewing tonight's lottery instead?

Change of plans.

The ESPN guy just called my house 10-15 minutes ago and said he wanted to reschedule me for a different day within this series. So that kind of sucks... I had notes and everything ready to go with 6-7 topics to discuss, heh. Oh well.

That sucks, CB.  Hopefully they have you back later in the week when the Celtics are up 2-0.
