Quality programming

I know, I know. As a Knicks fan, it hurts. New York’s season is going down faster than (insert off color joke). Their roster is depleted due to injuries, personal problems, and ego(s). Since their win against Denver, their play has been uninspired, sloppy, and unwatchable. They got blown out by Phoenix last night and it doesn’t get any better. Heck, they may not win another game this month.

So, instead of whining about what’s going on on the court, focus on the off court play. It’s amazing. Forget about what a joke this once model franchise has become and sit back and enjoy the show. Because what can you or I as a fan really do at this point?

Just look back at the past few months alone: the head coach costs the team a $11.6 million sexual harassment judgment, their point guard admits to having sex with an intern, calling Ancucha Browne Sanders a “black bitch”, says that he is going to play in Italy when his contract is up in two years…lets see, what else, oh yeah, supported Michael Vick , “from what I hear dog fighting is a sport”, and now he decides to bail out on his teammates…

Embrace the circus. The Daily News quoting a source close to the team had Marbury saying, “Isiah has to start me, …I've got so much (stuff) on Isiah and he knows it. He thinks he can (get) me. But I'll (get) him first. You have no idea what I know.”

This is great! You couldn’t come up with better stuff than this. New York has it’s very own reality TV show. Someone call Mark Burnett. But the real question is, What does Marbury know? Hmmmmmm. The Secret, maybe? What’s really happening on LOST? Or that this season is all an illusion and we’ll wake up to find Clyde dribbling down the court passing off to Bill Bradley, or maybe that’s Ewing pulling down a Stark’s miss. Until then, we’ll just have to sit back and watch.

Jack Jack Jack. Hang in there. Maybe Marbury will expose the fact that Isaiah knows where the WMD's are and we can finally get Dick Cheney to take over the Knicks.
