Around SBN: Win or Lose, Boston Celtics' New Big 3 Era A Success

Checking The Pulse: Who Is The Boldest Fan On BRB?

I suppose I could just declare who the boldest fan on BRB is, but where's the fun in that? BRB is a community, so it's only fair that we do this democratically. Cast your vote for the boldest BRBer after the jump.

Star-divide

There's no way I can list everybody, so if I forgot the person you believe is the boldest member of BRB, vote for "Other." If you choose "Other," I would ask that you tell us who your write-in candidate is in the Comments below.

To the chagrin of some of you, people who have been banned from BRB are not included in the poll. I figure they can't be the boldest member of BRB if they're not even members of BRB.

I would never expect to win this because I don't consider myself to be a "bold fan"

I will tell you how unbold I am. I don’t own a team jersey. That is bad. Definitely not bold. I don’t have season passes. I have never tailgated. Much is missing from my fan-life that spells “not bold.”

However, I feel emboldened that I was thought of when the ballot was being created. Thank you for that. And, I didn’t have to pay anyone for that…..

Now, if someone can just throw a pity vote my way, my day will be full. If not, I will remain a fan and devoted follower of BRB, nonetheless.

Always, Rip.

Ha! I got a vote so I'm happy!

Also don’t need to know who it was that took the chance of a beating at the hands of HydroSpock to do it, but thx!

Also, I’ll have everyone know that I show my fandom in different ways than some. I post regularly here, so that says something. I was the self-appointed Chairman of the successful “Send Leach to the Beach” initiative here on BRB last season! That may be what earned that solitary vote that I am very proud of. And let’s be clear, I also placed a lot of votes as part of that initiative, too.

Anyways, this thing is all in fun, so let’s have fun with it! I wish I could vote for everyone here on BRB! We are all bold fans in our own ways!

I didn't do anything wrong!.... and, I won't do it again.

Voted other

simply because i think all of us on BRB are the boldest fans. Now with the politcal answer out the way, time for me to get really bold on some of y’all asses. Seems to me i am not being taking serious, so with that said Texans will not lose another game this year.

I believe is was a comparison to Jabari Greer's coverage skills

with a vague reference (read: too drunk, can’t remember) to Dre’s cock size. By the time the anal penetration jokes were made, you’d effectively raised the bar on shock value to all new heights (read: lows). And I am proud to have witnessed it all.
