Knicks and Chicks
The glory days of the Knicks circa 1995 are long gone. But Jeff Ma over at ProTrade jogged my memory with this post yesterday.
So I was down at Foxwoods during the lockout, watching Shane Mosley and Roy Jones, Jr. fight (separate fights, not each other). Anyways, while there, I had the pleasure of playing blackjack with a few members of the New York Knicks. Patrick Ewing, John Starks and Allan Houston were all there. In fact, Ewing even started hitting on one of my female friends, prompting her to ask him what he did for a living. “I play basketball,” he said. And she replied: “For any team I might have heard of?”
Anyways, there’s more to the story—and it involves Starks getting so drunk that he couldn’t smoke his cigar, losing every penny he had and borrowing $500 from me—but I’ll save that for another day.
Poor Jeff. He is a Red Sox fan trapped in Northern California. He also thinks the Giants have the worst GM in baseball. I though that was Cashman?
