Bill Simmons, EsPN's 'Sports Guy', is probably the most visible and most read celtics fan in the world. I happen to like him, but I know his fanboy stuff turns people off. Either way, I think he shapes a lot of opinion on all things Boston sports. He also puts a lot credence into what fans think when a player leaves one team for another. If fans of the old team are glad to be rid of them...bad sign. If they write/call/etc to congratulate, then you want that player. I think we'll all miss JJ and Smooge, and it would behoove us to let Bill know how smart and lucky the C's are to have a couple of great Boilermakers
