what standard should we use? More relevant than Celtic fotbol?
Ironweed, the Knicks are relevant- always have been.

I wish the Knicks would start challenging. Games in the Garden that meant something would be great. I would love to scalp Game 6 tix for a Pistons- Knicks (or Boston Celtics) series.

go to Indy or Miami- no thanks (Miami for the game- I'm sure its a great city).

The Garden is about the best place I've seen a pro game, and the fans all seem into and knowledgable about the game. I saw a late season Knicks/Nets game* where everyone stayed in their seats and watched the game. I got up to check out concessions in the 3rd quarter and there was hardly anyone in the concourse- all the fans were actually fans and were watching the game. Contrast to a few weeks later, NBA finals game at the Palace, the concourse is full of people thoughout the game.

Maybe sucess brings lesser fans into the Palace, but I was impressed by the Garden crowd.

Oh, plus I'd like to see Isiah be sucessful and run into Dumars' team each year.

*that is to say- a meaningless game

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Isiah? Successful? Isiah has run more things into the ground than W.

2. I remember he ran the Bulls into the ground several years in a row.

True. Unfortunately, the Bulls never recovered.

No, they got over the Piston's Jordon rules, by having the Referees create their own Jordon rules. Then it was smooth traveling, except for the push offs.

Hank, please turn your paigow tribute avatar sideways again or something to avoid confusion. I started to compose a reply filled with surprise that La Paigow was a basketball fan. Thanks.

With Crawford, Marbury, Curry, Richardson and various interchangeable power forwards (and a bunch of shooting guards), as well as the addition of Larry Brown, the Knicks are relevant right now.

Although some teams are more relevant than others.

There's geekdom, and then there's geekdom
 

I think it's pretty common knowledge that I'm a geek and revel in things geeky.

I thought it was cool when a Princess in Norway admitted that her kid, Leah, was named after a Star Wars character. I had no problem at all when my friend named her kid Logan, in part after an X-Men character. (His long fingers helped his parents make that decision.) I even thought it was kinda cool that Kevin Smith named his kid Harley Quinn after a Batman character.

However, there are limits to geekdom.

Nicholas Cage does not understand those limits. That poor, poor child.

I refuse to weep for that spoiled brat. I would gladly change my name to Supergirl just to get ahold of some of that inheritance.

You and I draw that line in different places.

Now, now. I'm sure it'll take a couple of years of coddling and berating of nannies to generate that much of a sense of entitlement.

Even if the father has demonstrated profound stupidity in saddling the son with such a poor name, let's give the tot a couple of years to grow into a Hilton or Marriott sense of privilege before we award the "spoiled brat" moniker.

Do you have a trust fund? Do your kids?

Fashion tips
 

Her eyeliner's a problem,
and not just 'cause its dated.
Her eyes are small, but that's not how
the appearance of size is created.

But, while this look's not good,
its still just mediocre
compared to the makeup
we remember on the Joker:

No, but neither do I share your apparent sense of inevitability in these matters. I bow to your deeper experience with that set.

Why are you suddenly the Grand Protector of the Privileged Class? Are you seriously offended that I called a newborn a spoiled brat? I'm just curious.
