Scenes from the Green Line…

It's too early for this hat.

With the Lakers up 2-1 on the Celtics in the NBA Finals, combined with the fact that the C’s played terrible last night and the tried-and-true are probably wounded this morning, this guy might have a serious death wish. Even his bench mates don’t want to be near him.
