It's on page 2 of the following article.

http://www.newsday.com/sports/ny-spsunspec0101,0,4294177.story?page=2&coll=ny-sports-mezz

"Like Kennedy, ultimateknicks.com founders Martin and brother Andrew Cornman started their site as a hobby and have watched it grow rapidly. They try to tightly regulate the discourse.

"We will not allow kids to come in and say, 'I hate, I hate, I hate' and spew stupid stuff," Martin said. "We're fans. We actually want to discuss what's going on on the court."

One of those fans is Richard Sackett, a converted Celtics fan and Manhattan psychologist whose family ribs him mercilessly for his message board mania.

Sackett described his first visit as a revelation. "I thought, 'Oh, my God, I've met my brothers; these are all the guys who feel like I do,"' he said. "I have to self-diagnose. I'm definitely addicted to it."

Like all major sites, ultimateknicks.com has a worldwide reach."

HA! That's right my brothers! And he forced my confession about being an ex-Celtics fan - you know how these reporters dig and dig at you. I feel like Larry and Steph!

"Like all major sites, ultimateknicks.com has a worldwide reach.

David Deboudt, 22, wrote in an e-mail he said he sent from France that he is a Frenchman whose studies have taken him to Australia, Scandinavia and Southeast Asia. He adopted the Knicks in the mid-1990s and since has followed them through the Internet."
