One thing we know is when your an MSG employee you drink the kool aid and testify your love! Even if in a court of law.

When your an ex-MSG your tune changes.

Marburelli and I. Lord Thomas if were not part of the team would have sung like birds against Dolan.

Question is, how long can Dolan keep the team in favor of the fans?


Does Dolan cut bait now and start fresh?

Wait to see the winning percentage? If this team even gets off slow will he be forced to make a change if Thomas gets booed on a regular basis?

No.
Look for the tickets sales.
It is up to MGG marketing to save Isiah.
They need better person that Anucha to save some burning ass...s

Say What?

"Marburelli and I. Lord Thomas if were not part of the team would have sung like birds against Dolan"

C'mon nalod, this is a bit of a stretch.

At last check, Lord Thomas was still at the controls and doing his job to improve the Knicks by being aggressive in the market.

Dolan would be do more harm than good by cutting Zeke's legs out now.

Why not wait 2 weeks and see what happens in Charleston before you start rigging the gallows?

If Dolan did not extend Isiah think Isiah would not have thrown Dolan under the bus?

Nalod - I'm really confused about the core agenda/issue here.

Anucha is not the first person, male or female, to get caught in the MSG spin cycle.

Ernie Grunfeld was doen wrong. Pat Riley? Debatable. Knicks executive eads have rolled for decades and now, because some foul language and a hug was thrown in the mix it is a jailable offense?

That is not to excuse workplace abuse but c'mon...

Dolan fired Anucha

It's his money

It is hard for Dolan to admit his mistakes.
But if he does - everything is flying overboard. See Rangers 2005.
And if you think that Dolan has some logic and cares when to cut Isiah legs you are delusional.
It's all random.

But the way I meant Isiah’s burning ass

arkrud - it is a stone cold fact that I am delusional

but no so delusional as Trevor Ariza

I have absolutely no desire to worry, debate or wring my hands about Dolan or his (cough) logic

Roll out the ball racks!

The Knicks under Dolan is like healthcare under the big insurance companies...

Corporate America

Nalod - another thing we know is when your an Coca-Cola employee you must swig the Diet Coke from the free dispenser and fart carbonated gas before you reach your desk.

Even in a court of law, where Coca-Cola lost a huge class-action lawsuit, your tune changes only after the check is in the mail.

MSG, and many other huge companies, ain't no different

Bill Bradley for owner!

My point was did dolan want to keep Isiah on a leash until the jury is out? Does dolan fire him if the knicks are held accountable on paper? They sure as hell lost regardless of the outcome!

If Isiah was fired last year anyone think he would try to deflect it all on Dolan and msg???

You Can't keep The Answer Man on a Leash

Q. nalod Does dolan fire him if the knicks are held accountable on paper?

A. Nalod - there is no problem that a .500+ winning percentage can't fix. Isiah is no more or less accountable because of Anucha-Gate.

The people at The Garden took some hits in the news but it will be forgotten as quickly as Britney Spears in rehab if the team comes out playing inspired basketball.

Q. nalod - If Isiah was fired last year anyone think he would try to deflect it all on Dolan and msg?

A. If Isiah was fired last year we would be debating the relative merits of James Dolan's second cousin, Franklin Cosworth Dolan III, as Knicks team President while Isiah would be vacationing somewhere in the Mediterranean on a vacht watching cable on a flat screen

So you think Isiah is the highest point in Knicks club history?
No life after Isiah? No coming back from the dead?
I agree - it is so scary. Isiah is covering for everything and then - puff, and he is gone.
Scary like hell...
