and counting until opening tip...CANT COME SOON ENOUGH

Good thread man. Good thread. Any plans? Does anyone even accidently flip over to MSG? I haven't been to MSG for the last 3 months. DAMN THE F**KING NETS FOR SWEEPING US!! We are definately going to make up for it.

I am looking forward to ordering my 12 game mini-season plan this year. I'll make sure to hook up with Hardcore and root hard. I remember this time last year we were all excited about a front line that had Sweetney, Dice and Lampe by mid-season.

MSG is a basic channel stop for me...gotta keep up with the mets.

Anyway...yeah I'm dieing waiting for the season. I found myself watching the Republican convention just to see the garden. Don't know how long the few games I taped last season are going to last me.

Well,the NBA league pass better deliver this year.Those bastards advertise that they show every game not on national TV.I bought the plan and missed a bunch of Knick games.I called comcast and tore them a new one and they said that some games are subject to blackout.Which I took to be a local blackout.I finally got a supervisor on the phone and he explained that it doesnt mean only a local blackout.Say XYZ sports in podunk on the other side of the country decides to buy the rights to show that game in their area at the last minute,even if they have the game listed as one of the games they are showing on the league pass they get exclusive rights and get to blackout the game even if you are on the other side of the country.That happened with a Sixers game,the team is owned by comcast and they couldnt even show it on their network outside philly.Fing David Stern.The supervisor told me that he has alot of complaints about it.

Unfortunately they have me by the short and curlies,I have to buy the damn pass if I want to see the games so it looks like another season of corporate BS to watch my Knicks.

My god, and to think, we just got to see Marbury play in close and important games....four days ago! But I feel it too. We'll get there. Camp is only a month away.

Do any of you get into Yahoo Fantasy Basketball?

Been playing last two years, and it would be a nice change to play with people who know what theyre doing and will stay with it for the whole season.

how does that work exactly ?

unless a Knicks game is on, i never even bother checking to see what's on MSG...they have no other worthwhile programming.

seriously, why did they decide to take shows off the air like talk of our town, angles, or even courtside to some degree? They can't be getting better ratings with whatevers on now.

Me and 'gunsnewing' are game for any Yahoo League you want to start. give me the league ID and password.

Great, Ill get that info whenever it starts again.

As opposed to not really caring if they lose cause the Mets seem to be losing every single game. I dont want to start a Yankee vs. Mets debate but, I care if they win!
