Is "Celtic" pronounced "Keltic", or "Seltic"? In truth, it can be pronounced either way, and both will forever be used.
it's keltic unless you're some idiot yank.
hold the horses.

Its Celtic (as in CELL) if you are talking about the soccer team.

Fuck knows what the dumb yanks call the basketball team. I dont give a shit.

"Jibs"

It's taken from "gibblets" for fuck's sake, what's with all the stupidity in here?

I pronounce gib mainly because instajib gust doesn't sound right.
