Is there no other site you can post anti Knicks? I love it here and don't want to leave, but it's getting there...

The topic of the thread asked a question. Not everyone is going to answer with the same opinion. If there is a forum where people root for a team but don't point out the mistakes or get frustrated with how players play at times or how coaches coach please post a link to it. The drama that I have seen here lately has been more about guys saying they were not going to post here anymore because they didn't like someone else's take on the team.

Different opinions is a good thing. I think what bothers some is the over the top negativity, the lack of recognition for what this franchise has done to try and build a winner and the relative impatience with the process. We all seemed to understand that there would be a period of adjustment and that there wasn't a lot of time left to get things in line. SOme of the comments haven't been objective observations, but doom and gloom all is lost type posts. That can be a bit much.

I don't understand this less passion thing. I watched all last year, the year before that, the year before that...... You get the idea. I will admit that I don't watch losses on encore, but that's me. I don't know, but for me, there is no other team.

I remember a long time ago before cable and having to listen to Knick games on the radio and catch some games on PIX or WOR. I just have been a diehard fan for so many years I don't know what it's like to not support the team and be into a season. That's why this season has been so important. It's the beginning of a turn around for our franchise. No it's not perfect, but the direction is so positive and full of potential for big things down the line. Fans that won't allow themselves to enjoy this after all we've been thru are depriving themselves of a good experience. Perhaps they'll come around in the playoffs.

Agreed. Been a Knick fan since Rory Sparrow, Eddie Lee Wilkins and Truck Robinson. Serioulsy, if you can survive those times, along with the Layden/Isiah error, how in the world can a fan be turned off after securing two of the top 10-12 players in the league?

We've had some high moments with Melo on the Team and some low ones but the games have been equally exciting versus pre-trade. People are acting like before the trade some games you didn't leave sick from the lack of defense or inconsistency.

So quick to forget Chandlers disappearing act for a month. Or Gallo sometimes not showing up at all for games. Or Moz rivaling Jefferies on butterfingers iconic status. Or Felton looking terrible for some stretches. I miss those guys too but come on..they were as flawed or maybe even more than our current roster.

And if we are talking about homegrown talent..we still have Toney Douglas.

Feel good stories..Shawne Williams, RMJ & Anthony Carter.

Real Clutchness..Melo, Stat & Billups.

+1

Sounds to me like you're the primary drama queen so referenced. Differences of opinion should be expected in a fan forum. Nobody has declared the new Knicks a bust. And what's with the attitude of "You're either with me or against me?" That's some puerile shyte right there. Dang!
