Knicks Fans Are Bitter & Funny

by Jeff Clark on Jan 22, 2008 5:50 AM EST in Humor

FLCeltsFan runs a feature on LOY's Place called "Comments From The Other Side" where she scours the message boards of opposing teams' fan-sites. It is always enlightening and frequently (especially this year) satisfiyingly amusing. Here are some highlights during and yesterday's game:

This is a good barometer for the Knicks. Are they for real, or did they just beat up on a few tired teams last week?
At what time of the game do the "Fire Isiah" chants start?
Doc Rivers is sexually harrassing Isiah Thomas!!!

Shotblocking is overrated. Isn't that right Zeke
Perkins on pace to score 120 points. Look out Wilt.

Perkins is the same guy who dropped a bed on his toe....This is great New York, let the clumsy one go off

WOW! As soon as eddy comes back Perkins starts going off again. And he's making ALL of his free throws which he's usually terrible at.
Guess we'll never ever confuse Isiah Thomas as good coach again.
Well, we've still got the giants!

And Boston has the Patriots
LOL nice trade for us Q for Pierce

Richardson best play of the game.
Did anyone see Perkins post game interview.
"Kg talks the talk and WAlks the WALK. He is a constant teacher to us yuong guys about the game. He is the first one in the gym, last one out. He does all his work int he weight room, takes care of his body. He is just a leader on and off the court"
Damn... Now has anyone ever said that about one knick since the isiah era?
There is nothing wrong with a little jawing in heated games that have meaning, but everytime I see the camera I see garnett with his over the top antics,and pierce jawing and yet, when winning time hits the table, I mean taking it to the next round, the next step, these guys have seemed to fall short.. That to me is irritating... But lets be real. How good were pierce and garnetts teams last year? It is funny when losing, these guys were awful damn quiet...

Stern will organize something for the Knicks’ draft.
They won’t be this bad next season.

“Stern will organize something for the Knicks’ draft.

It wouldn’t do any good. Do you think a shoot first PG like Mayo is going to help the Knicks? Their locker room is so disfunctional even players like Randoph who were productive in other places stink when they get to New York. The only sollution for the Knicks is contraction and then moving another team like the Sonics or Hornets to New York and calling them the Knicks.

Lets hope they win enough to keep Isiah as the GM.
We will never have to worry about them being a threat to us, only to themselves

Actually, all these comments are quite intelligent. Even the bitter ones have points. That goes to show sports fans in the NorthEast are intelligent people.

Down here in DC, people started talking championship after the 2 wins against the Celtics.

I think the last one is wrong though. ‘These guys’ haven’t really had many teams around them to win much—until now.

the knicks fans deserve a better team,owner,coach-gm. they know the game. many of the nba stars are from the nyc plagrounds. give the knicks fans their due respect-they are suffering.

Great read, and funny now that our Celts are in the driver’s seat. Think I’ll be heading over to Loy’s Place more often. FLCeltsFan, thank you for compiling these comments!

I was at the game, one amusing anecdote: At some point early in the 4th scattered “MVP” chants would begin whenever Garnett scored to which some quick-on-their-feet Knicks fans replied “No PP. No PP…” No that it helped them in the end.
