I'd have to say that the other 12 looks who did not vote, more than likely the answer is probably it's useless. Which means.......um not sure what it means.
I'll never trust this' team again.

The only way to provoke change is to affect MSG's bottom line, as it is pretty clear that degenerate alcoholic-junky of an owner listens/answers to no one.

I'd say boycotts and whatever would work, but we all know that corporations are still going to buy these tickets. So, the only way I can think of impacting the bottom line is to stop watching Knicks games. People stop watching, advertising revenues decline... analysts point to Isiah's record and the trial, change is provoked.

prayers

This will help.
Also meditation and balanced diet

I'd say all of the above, but it probably is useless. In a city as big as NYC, you're always going to have a lot of people spending money on the team. I won't spend any money on the team until they show they're worth spending money on though.

I like this idea. It's very democratic.

I have a better idea? And that is......cancel your cablevision service and go over to direct tv/fios and when cancelling- say 'I loved the service, but I'm a knick fan and I want to stop feeding this ugly problem that is isiah & dolan'

IT would take a combined effort to effect change. So I voted all of the above. I don't think any single thing will do it. Even this list is likely too short. Part of the problem is that you'll never get the Corporates to follow along.

None of those things will work because the majority of people that have tickets today are corporate America and families with kids. Knick games are for entertain business partners and having a good time with the kids. Then at halftime you can buy Knicks apparel. Company's buy Knicks tickets buy the hundreds before season even starts.
