Tbh, I couldn’t stop laughing for a while after seeing this meme from last year’s NFL draft. IYKYK:
And now this came up:
Remember what happened to Shannon Sharpe:

Go Knicks!
Yes! I’ve been a long-suffering Knicks fan since the early 1970s, when the juggernaut of Willis Reed, Walt Frazier, Earl Monroe, Dave DeBusschere and Bill Bradley won the 1973 NBA Championship. I was a season ticket holder in 1999 when the team of Patrick Ewing, Allan Houston, Latrell Sprewell, Chris Childs and Marcus Camby made it to the finals (only to lose to the San Antonio Spurs in five games). But the post-season 2026 team seems unstoppable and unbeatable. Fingers crossed that this is the year they win again (even better if they defeat San Antonio to do it).

Coupla comments on the NHL finals:
First, how is it possible that there are no Canadian teams in the finals?! It just doesn’t seem right.
Second, how is it possible that the final two teams are from cities where the temperatures in January rarely dip below freezing? I mean, ice is not normal in Raleigh, North Carolina, let alone steamy Las Vegas.

Well the Spurs won Game 7 against Oklahoma. Oklahoma roster wasn’t at full strength so it is Knicks and San Antonio starting Wednesday. Should be good. I want Knicks in 6.
It would be nice to have a championship banner hanging from the Garden rafters for the first time in 53 years.

Yeah, no wins since 1993 (Montreal over Gretzky and LA).
As long as its not Toronto.
Carolina is a spectacular team.
Won it in 2006, coach Rod Brindamour (BC boy!) Played back then.
100 playoff wins for Carolina, and Brindamour has played or coached in 98 of them.I hope they trounce League darlings Vegas.

“Before hockey pucks were made of rubber, players often used frozen cow dung during outdoor games on ponds and lakes. As the sport moved indoors, players initially used lacrosse balls, but rink owners soon found they worked better when sliced into thirds and the flat middle section was used. By 1885, this design had evolved into the basic rubber puck we recognize today—much to the relief of modern players, who probably have no interest in returning to hockey’s original equipment.”

Knicks won the first two at San Antonio! I thought San Antonio was going to tie it up at 1 game apiece but the Knicks held on by one point.
Next 2 are in the big city. MSG!!!
But I seeing all these people going to the watering hole and pubs all over Manhattan to watch the game. People with Knicks jerseys and caps who I know I will never see again wearing them. 🤣
Now I hear that 47 wants to go to Game 3. Please stay away and let us enjoy our moment.

The stink of Trump’s game 3 visit stayed through the first half of gane 4, and the Knicks overcame that, biggest comeback in history.
Well done, and hope they end it Saturday night!

Good night for NY.
…except for a relatively small group of fans who decided the best way to celebrate the Knicks victory was to destroy property and trash a taxi cab. 14 jailed and 45 ticketed. Maybe they should move to Philadelphia.

How many call in sick tomorrow?
“If you don’t show up Monday, don’t bother coming in Tuesday!”
“Woo hoo! 4-day weekend!”
And good on the Knicks!
After that comeback they got the job done at the first opportunity.
Nice!1 user thanked author for this post.

England-Croatia yesterday was a real thriller. Great game to watch as a neutral observer

New York: The Canyon of Heroes is too small and narrow a parade route to celebrate a championship of the Knick’s magnitude.
Next time the city might have to do it on a broad 5th Avenue like they do the St. Patrick’s parade or maybe the parade route they have for Thanksgiving.
People were turned away. Subway stops were skipped. Some woke up at 4am to be there. Crazy.
But they won.

Ok.. I told some Haitians “Sorry” about last Friday.
She will never forgive me. 🤣

Andres Cantor is old but still around.
When the US first hosted the WC back in ’94, he got noticed for his announcing “GOOOOOAL!” and he’s known for that among Americans.
