I was listening to the WEEI radio broadcast of the Celtics-Cavaliers game last night and heard the following exchange between color commentator Cedric Maxwell and play-by-play host Sean Grande. It starts with Maxwell explaining Ray Allen’s shooting woes:
Maxwell: It’s like he has the whole weight of the world on his shoulders. It’s like Damocles over his head.
Grande: You mean the Sword of Damocles, right? It’s not like Damocles himself is over his head.
Maxwell: I mean like there’s a moon pie, up high in the rafters, going to hit him in the face.
Grande: A moon pie?
Maxwell: You know what a moon pie is, don’t you?
I’m writing this from memory, but I swear it’s close to verbatim.
