Afternoon Delight: It all makes sense now

Fans wanted the Boston Celtics to shake things up and the morning after the Celtics were eliminated from the playoffs they did just that, when Danny Ainge announced he was stepping down as head of basketball operations after 18 years. But that's not all! Brad Stevens was stepping up into that role, and in doing do was relinquishing his role as head coach. Somehow the Fire Danny and Fire Brad contingents were both happy.

But the joke is on everyone who wanted both gone. It all makes sense now. Brad Stevens won't coach anymore, but instead he'll now run the franchise.
