A few years back we all had a long thread on his knick legacy and some posters Spree was their favorite knick. Kind of like "Twilight" series, "Team Spree vs Team H20". The good son vs. the bad son. Sometimes its the bad son that everyone likes.

So the arguement was: "Spree a good teammate or not". I said no because he was often late to camp and some of his personal stuff interfered with team business and thus became a distraction. Once on the court he gave it all he got but I contended there was more to that. If team was to go on the road to Charleston for a week of camp and bond and he was not there it was not a good move. The broken hand incident as another example.

Of course Im mixed that he cussed out Dolan in MSG while wearing a timberwolve uniform but it was not the right place or time to do so.

Who gets arrested for playing music too loud? Someone who the cops keep having to ask and after a few attempts they kind of had it with the guy? We all know Spree had problems with authority.

8-0 - This is a mirage, we're too old, we're going to break down, just you wait.

21-10 - We lost to Portland! And by 5 points! Melo missed the game tying shot! These stupid kids have been partying too much!

Next week: drug abuse, steroids and New Age mysticism. Woody's drinking too much coffee!!!

Third week in February, the Knicks awake from their long winters nap (after running the streets and partying 'til the early morning light) to hold a players only meeting. Mike Woodson tells them he is done teaching and that the season is their responsibility. Trainers tape is prohibited and the whirlpool is shut down. Music is outlawed on the team bus. Shumps mix tape goes triple platinum but his iPod is confiscated.

Sheed leads the pre game huddle. Herb Williams gets tossed two consecutive games. The elders grind out some stunning wins in March. They are just getting warmed up.

Bo knows the playoffs are when the real season starts.

Its a cold night on the road, Jason is having a hard time sleeping so his friend rashweed makes him some warm milk and introduces him to a new strain of Afgan weed that won't show up on a test. The old friends laugh into the night drinking the milk but add vodka and Kalua and call it a "Hot Russian". Speaking of hot russians, the old friends remember "mad Vlad" now resides in town adn they call him. Within an hour 5 hot russian hoe's arrive for them to choose from. Laughing and telling tales of seasons past the two good friends look at each other, wink then just decide to take all 5! Jason gives Rashweed some Viagra and the two warriors work on theie sleeping problems with the girls. Coach woodson senses a disturbance with his team and makes his rounds. Hearing the giddy laughter of the seasoned vets he enters room. The laughter dies down and all is left is sucking and grinding noise and the beard of woodson. Simple math dictates Woodson has a problem sleeping and russian girl number 5 is helping woodson and his tension as well.

These are men of the road, men who 20k people will cheer or Jeer but men first. They will take their pleasures and have the money to pay for them as well. Jason will drive into trees and walk away. Trees fear these men. Women on the road cringe from Anal as these men go from town to town. It is the way for this veteran team, the elders will not be denied what is theirs for the taking.

The Next day in Sacremento the team loses. There is plenty of time to sleep on the plane home.

While gone the trees will sleep too.

But soon the elders will depart.

fish.mike - I would submit thou doth leanest towards the version that is more compatible with your X-Ray glasses. You already know the future. Originality is the envy of those who can only throw rocks.

Those baseball cards were good for making the spokes on our bikes sing. Why do I keep getting Hobie Landrith and not Willie Mays?

Please hold your applause until the end of the performance.

Being able to pass a THC test is fiction. The Fables need some embelishment from time to time.

Its what fables are for!

Nalod with the footnoted fables! Classic!
