They retired with injuries, he will retire for what reason?

Berman was probably had. I know there are people in Steph's inner circle that are just as sick of his stalker tendencies and 180 reporting as Knicks fans are. He's as much of a joke to them as he is to us. Missing a flight has never stopped Steph from playing before. Steph has barely left his house in days, but he's going to hop on a flight after dealing with all the emotion of his first Christmas without his father? Please, Berman. Today's article was a complete CYA maneuver after his lame attempt at being Steph's personal Jim Gray. Like I said on K4L, this is 70% grieving and 30% not wanting to be Isiah's built in excuse. Tasha better watch out - Berman is Steph's real better ho.

If you don't mind me asking, and you probably do but don't take this the wrong way, do you have any affiliation with the Knicks or a particular player that shapes your postings?

There's no reason to excuse Marbury's actions be it pre-or-post family loss. There's two things here for me as a fan. The players as people - and the players as just that players. Steph the man has a good heart and I'm sure everyone is sorry for his loss. Steph the player has sucked going on three years and has done nothing but disrupt our team. Although these days that's akin the stirring a backed up toilet with a stick.

Steph's days as a Knick ought to be done. If he never wears the jersey again it's not soon enough.

Buy this guy out already and end this stupidity. He wants to grive until June 2009 (the duration of his Knick contract) I wish him the best in doing so.

Enough already.......and ENOUGH with excusing ANY Knick player for their poor play and lack of heart. It's borderline insane now. They all suck and nothing can excuse this mess. NOTHING.

Where did I excuse Steph's actions?

In some ways you have. I didn't gather you did here so much with exception of breaking down the %'s. I think Cosmic is saying even with the words said on the plane Steph had no reason to abort the team as use I SAY UGH'S words and treatment as an excuse. Not even 1%. Him appealing the fine while mourning is comical. I mean how many times has someone said something to someone and it not be taken literal?

Here's an example. With the current changes in the line-up, going with the assumption Curry's headed to the bench, what if I SAY UGH told Curry...."Fat Boy you're headed to the bench and if you don't like it "TOUGH COOKIES"!" And while on the bench during games we see Curry pouting, munching on a 5lb bag of Ginger Snaps getting fatter and fatter.

It doesn't matter how close your relationship is to the Mabrury family, Steph has not done one thing to help this franchise.

I made it quite clear where I stand on Steph both as a man and as an athlete in that introduction thread. If you choose to disregard that to believe what you want, then so be it.
