The Donnie Walsh Era

If you haven't seen, the Knick just hired Donnie Walsh as President of the team. This will surely end a fascinating era in the history of New York sports, the Reign of Isaiah.
Even before Mr Thomas was given the unenviable task of breathing life back into a dying team in the post-Van Gundy era, he had single handedly destroyed everything he had been in charge of. So obviously this made him the perfect fit for the Knicks. But what will we really remember about Thomas's team?
1. My friends' numerous run-ins with Eddy Curry at the local diner at 2 am. Now I'm no nutritionist, but I'm assuming those late-night cheeseburgers didn't do much to strengthen Curry's muscle mass. But who knows, maybe Thomas hired Ronald McDonald's health advisor.
2. Nate Robinson's many pick-up basketball games at the local New York Sports Club to prove to his fans that, even if he can't cut it in the NBA, he's damn good when being guarded by a 5'4 balding accountant. One story comes to mind, told to me by The Fab Files Enemy No. 2 Danny Wolffffe. A few weeks ago, the Knicks were down by 4 with just seconds left when Nate Robinson chucked up a deep three as the buzzer sounded. Forgetting the fact that the shot had no bearing on the outcome of the game, good ol' Nate-Dog shouted at the refs that the shot better be counted. "Count dat! Count dat!" Nate wanted those 3 extra points to show up in the box score...oh the winning attitude.
3. Let's not forget Stephon Marbury's oft-forgotten but outrageously epic threat to blackmail once-close-pal Isaiah in the media. I mean, WHO DOES THAT? I always thought blackmail was illegal, but there's Starbury, going off on some reporter about how he has dirt on Thomas. How does Jose Canseco get a 60 Minutes segment and Steph gets page 14 of the Daily News? Silver-lining: Marbury might be the most entertaining off-the-field New York athlete since Mike Tyson.

Let's just try to forget that the last 5 years ever happened, and maybe try to convince the owner of Coach Diner to explain to Mr Curry that they're all out of fries, but how would egg whites and wheat toast sound.

God Bless Donnie Walsh
