    With all the bad that has been happening in the sports world
    Jim Dolan comes along with his band to make us laugh ...... at him.

    But as the story points out, Jim Dolan belongs to a garage band that overcame huge odds to open up for the Eagles at MSG. Inspiring story

    He's a better musician than basketball executive.

    You are a sad person. Why would anybody write such a hateful letter. I am.just guessing but ill bet your life is a mess and you are a hateful mess. What have you done that anyone would consider positive or nice. I am betting nothing. In fact ill bet you are negative force in everyone who comes in contact with you. You most likely have made your family miserable. Alcoholic maybe. I just celebrated my 21 year anniversary of sobriety. You should try it. Maybe it will help you become a person that folks would like to have around. In the mean while start rooting.for the Nets because the Knicks dont want you.

    Are we sure that Dolan has really been sober for 21 years? That was a very strange email.

    Can anyone imagine Steinbrenner telling an unhappy fan to go root for the Mets?

    Maybe the League should consider exercising some sort of Donald Sterling type nuclear option on Dolan. The dude's been an embarrassment since the day his daddy gave him control over the Knicks in 99 and has made an utter laughingstock of the league's largest market and oldest franchise.

    I think Knicks fans en masse should do as Dolan instructed and switch to the Nets until this boob is gone.

    That letter made Donald Sterling cringe.

    Knick fans are getting exactly what they deserve. The team is awful, yet every game is sold out, no fan demonstrations, barely any chants against Dolan. As long as people keep filling Dolan's coffers he has no incentive to get it together.

    But sorry Mr. Commissioner, Dolan is not the consummate New Yorker. He’s the only billionaire I know with the temerity to have his garage band open for the Eagles.

    The "Fire John Idkik" guys have a new target.

    They are trying to raise the money to buy a billboard across the street from the Garden.
