I was trying to be fair.

IT did not get Hosuton.

So low and behold, I did not say he is IT's fault. Apparently thats me having an agenda.

IT did resign KT, but apparently that's not his decision, what am I to say to that???

I did not say that the Craw move was a bad one cause it was not.

What the hell do you want from me? Your post doesnt even make any sense other then a blatant attempt to somehow suggest that I'm spinnin facts one way.

Do you even know what you were tryin to say?
A glimmer of hope maybe?!?

yea.. tearing up the CBA isnt much. Hell, Lavar Postel did that. But when you get cut from the SL roster and go to the CBA and become a top 5 scorer/rebounder/shot blocker in that league at 19 it show me something. It says your hungry and if the NBA doesnt want you your going to punish whoever you play against.

exactly how I feel about him doing it at 19!

You are onsided on IT, come on. You have a Fired IT signature. Layden got 3 1/2 years. You have IT fired after 1. And lets face it, the media was much kinda to Layden than IT. And all Layden moves have been bad, even if you give him credit with Sweetney, you have to take it away from him because the NBA reveal that he tried to trade the kid right after he signed him but was told he couldn't until Feb.

And if you only mention a person flaws rather than good points you are spinning the facts one way.

Yet you came to all of these conclusions about the place after how many days now?
"My only point of reference for the state was the notoriously low education stats and the omnipresent Confederate Flag."

I'd imagine it's no more shocking than someone from Clarksdale seeing a city park filled with crack viles. Then again, I don't have to imagine.
"Cruising down the two lane highways surrounded by massive cotton farms/plantations, Tractor-trailer shaped bales of raw cotton, spray-painted with cryptic specs and stacked in endless rows, ready for shipping North."

Interesting. I recall receiving more glances up here than I ever did down there for being..."physically imposing" Come on fella.
"the numbers of physically imposing young men walking the streets."


Sidetracked by a poor education....wow. Stereotyping your A$$ off.
"despite being sidetracked by a poor education"


Man, please give me a break. Clarksdale is no more dangerous than walking down any part of NYC at 3a.m.
"You don't be walkin' the streets of Clarksdale MS at 3AM if you are a punk."

You're making broad assumptions about how someone was raised in a part of the country that you obviously don't know much about. Why can't Jackie Butler be anymore different than any other young man that works hard and takes advantage of an opportunity given to him. The same opportunity given to young imposing young men from all over. You're blowing it way out of proportion. He's a regular human just like everyone else.

Oh, and speaking of salary and someone mentioned the Atl. Hawks - its one thing if the Knicks were the Yankees, its another if they were the Knicks. I dunno much about baseball, but theres a reason why the Yanks are called the Evil Empire. They have the highest salary and they WIN. They dominate (ok not last year, i dont care, but they still get somewhere). They make smart moves with the money.

And then theres the Knicks. Highest salary, complete a** team. Thats pathetic. Thats not evil empire. Thats the work of bad management and overpaid players. The knicks salary is an embarassment because it makes the whole team a laughing stock.

I dont think it would be bad if the Knicks cut their salary or at least did something useful with it. Its easy, just dont trade for the Mo Taylor's out there. I dont care about the 200,000 Butler projects, its the Taylors that are killing us and making fools of the entire organization.

First off, the Yankees succeed because of no salary cap. All their moves are smart? Uh not really ... but having significant money and no salary cap, you can cover your mistakes well. Not too many teams can pick up Canseco's $10 million contract just to keep him away from your rivals. Dolan is willing to spend money on top of money too. Do you think guys like TT, Penny, and others would still be on the team. You see what they Zeke was allowed to do with Anderson. The cap forces you to be much smarter with your personnel decisions. The money they spend on Taylor is irrevelant to the issue, only the fact that they over the cap which restricts them from acquiring talent via free agency and to matter Taylor didn't put them over the cap, they been over the cap since 1996.

8 pages now. Just think if we had a real move to talk about, like a trade for Sprewell or Van Horn. It'd be up to 15 pages by now. ;)
Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

Earl, that's important but what's also important is this - how much did you dig Bobby Blue Bland?? I've been watching this guy perform for 30 years, he is one of my absolute all-time favorites. "Cuz if you ain't lovin me, who in the world are you lovin . . .?" Ha!

"Meanwhile, back in the states..."

Marv - I knew someone would feel the vibe.

Junkmein wastes too much time picking apart poetry rather than enjoying a personal take on my trip to King Biscuit. The intent was not to stereotype or paint broad genaralizations, just an random set of observations from a place most people have never visited.

I stand by every description and account.

For the record, the tune of choice was Johnnie Taylor's , "Big Head Hundreds"

Rock on til the break of dawn

"Meanwhile, back in the jungle...."

Marbury and Crawford shoot 7/26 and they still find a way to win?

When has Kurt Thomas EVER had 6 assists in one game?

Go Knicks!

If you need to ask no answer i'll give you will suffice.

"Junkmein wastes too much time picking apart poetry"

When I go back and read it again I guess I would have to agree with you. I certainly wouldn't have classified it as poetry...drivel maybe but certainly not poetry.(i'm not taking it too serious now).

How long before we get to see if this dude is worth keeping around???? I think that we need to activate this young dude and give him a chance to play Marb, Crawf, TT, and Sweetn. What do you guys think????? He is a shot blocker and we desperately need one. Why not put Sundov on IR since have barely use him and replace him with Jackie Butler??????

He's gonna be on the IR at least as long as Jermaine Jackson has a 10-day. THe reason he's not active right now is because the Knicks coaching staff doesn't think he's ready to play. Let Aguirre and Glymph work with this guy the rest of the year. You'll start seeing stuff out of him during the summer league.

KT isn't playing tonight!!!!!

Butler is the only "true center" on the team!!! Oh yeah there is Sundov.

With no KT....this could be interesting.
