In New York City right now there is general sports euphoria, what with the Giants on their way to a sure big time Super Bowl  defeat in Arizona. Forgotten as a big time franchise, the New York Knickerbockers are still playing National Basketball Association games. Unfortunately, no one cares about the Knicks in New York. The team that was the hottest ticket in the country in the mid 90's is playing to empty seats and GM / Coach Isiah Thomas has driven this team into salary cap oblivion and more shockingly, general apathy and disinterest from fans.

Tonight the Knicks take on the world's #1 basketball virtuoso, Laker forward Kobe Bryant.

The Immortals were no match for the Spartans either, as many perished under the wall of death ( giant front 4) the soldiers created to funnel enemies in to the hot gates. But eventually the sheer magnitude of the Persian force ( Moss brady welker maroney stallworth) overwhelmed, their arrows did in fact blot out the sun and and the last of the brave 300 was dead.

Magic had a long meeting with old friend / nemesis Isiah recently. After the meeting magic pronounced the Knicks had turned the corner and looked good for the 7 seed in the east. Magic, what team have you been watching turn the corner. If you believe Magic Johnson has watched 1 full 48 minute, usually sad and depressing, Knicks game this season I have a large bridge in Brooklyn for sale, please e mail me right away. You may also believe that the King of Nigeria has a desperate need to give 80,000 g's if you can just send  a few grand to help his family flee the country, or you may believe that you can get a free applebees gift certificate by clicking HERE. Or you might believe that the Knicks will be in the NBA Playoffs.
