Hey, I have great memories watching the Knicks with my dad, us both screaming at Jackass Jackson for turning the ball over. Still can't beleive that klutz turned into the Zen Master.
Anyway, you've convinced me. I'll watch with the boy ... but fully clothed and no bucket of any kind of food.

Sounds like a plan, Hubert!
My biggest dilemma is whether to watch with my 8-year-old or not. My 11 year old's not interested, so no worries there.
Pros:
-Teach him to love the Knicks
-Expose him to some playoff hoops
-Quality father-son time
Cons:
-Teach him to love the Knicks: do I want to be responsible if he becomes obsessed like me and winds up wasting his free time wondering about next year's trades in Knicks forums?
-Expose him to me being a fanatical jackass, screaming at the refs and Shandone for hoisting up too many shots
-Have to be distracted by his constant stream of questions and pleas for my Dikembe imitation
Any advice?
I love it. Quality time with child... in front of the TV. America is great.
