Local Boy Says No To The Knicks

Written by Jason Singer on July 11, 2007. Posted in Posts, Sports

How absurd is the New York Knicks orginization? Well, even crazy people see the insanity in joining Isiah Thomas’s revolving door of overpaid, underachieving ego-maniacs these days. Yesterday, Sacramento Kings forward and possible Jeffrey Dahmer-protégé Ron Artest, a local product from Queensbridge who attended St. John’s University here in the city, officially quashed trade rumors

P.J. Gets Second Gasp In Seattle

Written by Jason Singer on July 6, 2007. Posted in Posts, Sports

P.J. Carlesimo, who attended Fordham University here in the city and once put the tiny, Staten Island-based Wagner College on the basketball map, was hired yesterday as the new head coach of the Seattle Supersonics. Rather than being known as Wagner’s claim-to-fame, however, Carlesimo is more infamously remembered as the coach that Latrell “I’m-Fucking-Crazy” Sprewell

America Opens Wide On Birthday

Written by Jason Singer on July 5, 2007. Posted in Posts, Sports

It was fitting that America finally celebrated a victory in the sporting world yesterday, on July 4, when patriot Joey Chestnut became the world champion for hot dog eating, smashing the world record in the process.
