Boston's Mayor isn't much of a Sports fan (video)

((ht: espnboston))

And we now have even further proof that politicians don't live in the same universe that the rest of us do.

Boston Mayor Thomas Menino is either really confused or doesn't have someone in his ear to tell him the proper names he is supposed to be talking about. And in a Sports crazed town like Boston, we are guessing that this isn't going to go over very well, though it is kind of funny.

In the video, Menino is asked about the Boston Celtics, in his answer, he talks about KJ and Hondo. And while Kevin Johnson and John Hondo Havlicek both did play in the NBA and Havlicek actually did play for the Celtics, we think he's trying to refer to Kevin Garnett and Rajon Rondo.

And according to ESPN Boston, this is nowhere near the 1st time he's butchered his local Sports heroes.

Read that story RIGHT HERE

Okay, yeah, the argument can be made we are all being too tough on the guy. But we don't think so. Sure, we know a "City Leader" is supposed to have a ton of things on his mind to deal with. And, no, we don't know Menino who may be a very sharp guy.

We don't buy that here.

Anyway, listen, watch...and revel...
