Surprised nobody posted this yesterday, but the guy who started the Fire John Idzik site also started an anti-Dolan site. The site pretty pointless. Dolan is clearly not going to sell. EVER! However, there was a wall of shame on the site which is a "nice" trip down memory lane. Great moments like Marbury punching Isiah, the sexual harassment lawsuit, etc.

Yeah, I think there have been these sites since the Isiah years if not earlier. I still like the websites

Idzik was an employee. Dolan owns the team.
Morons don't realize the art of rebuilding is in progress vs. Starphuching with inflated Wins.
Change is already in motion.
Where was all the "activists" when Isiah was sexually harrassing Anucha? why was corperate America still buying season tickets?
If Dolan is true to not meddling in the Knicks and leave Jackson to run the team then we have the best possible scenario. An owner who need not service debt and can afford to rebuild.

"IF"................This is the scenario then Let it play out.

Dolan Hired McKinsey in 2013 which I believe set him on the path to understand how distructive he was and had to get out of the basketball side.
This website (I looked at it) does not break down the true dysfunction of how decisions are made and how it MIGHT have changed.

Given the damage that years of bad decisions were made this season is not the epic disaster as was when Isiah had Leveraged the future for Marbury and Eddy Curry to be the cornerstones of the franchise.

My take is "sell the knicks" is more about getting attention for the website than the content of listing 15 years of bad moves in hindsight.
Fans should only boycott with not going to games if you want to enact change. Knicks attendance is still pretty darn good.

I'd rather rebuild and clean out the mess than patchwork starphucing with the wrong players coached by the wrong guy.

We take good coach's and turn them in idiots!!!!!

With this email--there should be one blackout day at the Garden. A day that people fail to show up for the last 15 years of porous management that still consistently raised tix/cable prices for the fans. He isnt going to sell the team--but it would be nice if one day Knick fans stayed away and dindt watch on TV. When I was young my Dad and my brother went to the Graden and sat in like row 2 behiond the Knicks bench--you know how many people were in the Graden that day--not many this was in 1976.
RIP Crushalot😞

The leaugue suffered pre Bird/Magic as post ABA/NBA merger BlowFest was high scoring games with little character.
Knicks were like 40=42 that season and still coached by Red but the team was in decline. Clyde was still with the team.

As usual Jim is getting a bad rap from the media. Actually he showed tremendous restraint in responding to a hateful email. He was absolutely correct that alcoholics must abstain in order to stop being a negative force in the community.

He showed real courage here, especially in saying that he will engage more with the fans. I don't think any web site is going to deter Jim from rebuilding the team. I think this is really the turning point.

FIX THE KNICKS / AND MAKE THEM SHINE / GET ’EM TO WIN LIKE ITS ’69 / HITTIN’ ALL THEIR FREE THROWS / AND NO MORE SHOOTING BRICKS / TIME TO GET IT RIGHT / AND FIX THE KNICKS
