I don't know. Picking up 6s and 7s on a Friday night sound like a great time.

The ad was referring to the Broadway show "Spiderman: Turn Off The Dark," in which actors have been injured, including Christopher Tierney, who fell 30 feet from the air into the orchestra pit in December 2010. Tierney, who sustained four broken ribs and fractured three of his vertebrae, returned to the show four months later.

Yeah, that's pretty inappropriate.

Its cold, but its NY. Glad to see MSG show some balls.

Why would anyone care about this as being inappropriate? Inappropriate would be saying things like "It's Friday Night, you can either watch Sandy victims bodies caught on the nets, or watch Knicks pouncing on the Nets." Now that's something worth reporting.

I would agree. Anything that denounces the N*yets is reportable as bad taste.

The ironic part of the ad, which the Post pointed out, was that it featured Knicks forward Amar'e Stoudemire, who is out at least a month and a half after having a procedure done on his frequently injured left knee.

Where exactly is Stat flying anyway? Is Dolan giving free charter tickets on the MSG flights?
