Celtics get Ubuntu, go from 24-58 to NBA champions


Ubuntu, most commonly known as the linux distro that has taken the desktop world by storm, is now apparently an unstoppable force in any form.

Quote:
It was a group effort by this gang in green, which bonded behind Rivers, who borrowed an African word ubuntu (pronounced Ooh-BOON-too) and roughly means "I am, because we are" in English, as the Celtics' unifying team motto.

The Celtics gave the Lakers a 12-minute crash course of ubuntu in the second quarter.


Led by the spirit of ubuntu, the Celtics were transformed from one of the worst teams in the NBA last year to this year's NBA champions. The linux distro of the same name has been enjoying similar success. Professor 판데스 of Seoul National University notes. "From the commonly known 'correlation = causation' it has now become apparent that a simple infusion of ubuntu is all that is needed to make anything or anyone incredibly successful." He recommends getting as much ubuntu in your life as possible. If you're a track star write it on your shoes. If you have a band name it ubuntu. If you have a kid name it ubuntu. The possibilities are endless.





*ps - just found the Celtics ubuntu thing in a real news source and thought it might be fun to type up a mock article - I'm not even an ubuntu fan really
