JUBILATION!!

I'm exhausted from following the Sixers. All that jumping up and sitting down. All that waving of the rally towel. Now I know how the Celtics feel. Those young boys just keep coming at you. Last night, I had to have a glass of red wine to calm myself down before going to sleep.

I can't wait to watch Game 7 in Maine. Go Sixers!
