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

Hunter Pence / Reggie Abercrombie bet

this is pretty funny.. from hunter's blog:

Hi,

It feels good to finally be drawing near the season. Everyone in camp is starting to get to know each other, and the team even though it's not set is having a lot of fun together. To me, it's important to have a team that gets along in the clubhouse because your around each other so long and I honestly believe it effects the play on the field. Things change when the season starts, and we still dont know who all exactly is going to be on the team, so there's a lot of questions as far as that's concerned.

The talent on this team is tremendous and my expectations are high when the bell rings for the season to start.

As far as myself, I'll be honest to say that my swing is just now starting to feel proper again. I haven't felt like my normal self in the batters box and in batting practice early this spring. But I am getting a good feel now. Despite not feeling great, I have still managed to get hits. So that's a good sign.
Now that I feel good I'm going to be able to have more of an approach at the plate and get myself properly prepared to go by the time the season starts.

Off the field, I regret to tell everyone that I lost a bet with Reggie Abercrombie. Because Duke lost to North Carolina in college basketball, Reggie will be suiting me up in some Hip-Hop gear on one of the upcoming road trips.

Had Duke won, you better believe Reggie was going to be wearing some Wrangler's with a HUGE belt buckle, a cowboy hat and some nice cowboy boots. I figure it was worth a shot to see him in that gear!

We'll see if I can post a picture, I'm not sure what he has in mind for me, but hopefully it's appropriate. =)

Funny.
I definitely want to see pics of Pence in hip hop gear.  I can almost picture him dressed like that.

Hey, and I could see Abercrombie in jeans, belt buckle, and boots.  Maybe like Will Smith in "Wild, Wild West."

Imagine when/if...
Abercrombie ever earns the player of the week and gets the free pair of boots!
Go 'Stros!
