Guillermomo, the New Knicks and More

A quick shout to our guy Guillermo. It is almost too easy. Dude sucks. Takes steroids. Gets good.

But just like Jobu didn't help Cerrano hit a curve ball, steroids didn't really help Mota throw one.

Game 2 goes our way and we could be planning out victory parade. Oh well. Anything Shawn Merriman does is cool by me.

But Wednesday was a big day for other reasons. For those who have been on board with Y2K, you know my feelings about the Knicks. I loved Chris and Mase's piece yesterday, think it was relatively spot on.

The big difference, I have no resaon to be optimisitc. I just don't care enough.

And all I can say about this team. They SUCK.

They went to three OT's against a team that prominently featured Chucky Atkins, Hakim Warrick, Jake Tsakalidas and 2 rookies.

Their go-to player was Mike Miller.

The Knicks almost earned the Trojan Ends Boner of the Week Award by nearly blowing a 19-point lead.

Thank god they didn't.

But as unimpressive as this win was, there is something to me that is more impressive.

How is it possible to have as high of a payroll as the Knicks and still have Jamal Crawford be your go-to guy at crunch time?

It is really scary that he is the best choice. What's next. Iso for Jerome James?

They'd be a lot better signing Happy Will to a 10-day. They didn't call him "Little Fundamental" for a reason.

As for the rest of the sports world, let the Alfonso Soriano sweepstakes begin. I think he ends up in Philly. They want to dump Pat the Bat and after having freed up a certain $17 million dollar unmovable salary last summer, they have some room to maneuver.

You can start printing your Dwight Howard MVP tshirts. Maybe even at Fratbucks.com where prices and value are what we've got.

This kid could average 30 and 15 and the Magic seem to be everyone's up and coming squad.

Me personally, I'm on board with the Warriors.

My boys covered their first over/under Wednesday night (203.5) in a 110-98.

This despite both teams combining to miss 29 free throws and go 8-for-36 from three point land. Sip's advice: play this every night till the number hits 210. This team just refuses to rebound or defend. All they do is run. It adds up.

With every passing day and every new steroid scandal it makes me wonder why these things are banned. If all these guys are going to do them, doesn't it make it unfair to D Wright who obviously does not?

Imagine young David on steroids. He would have the king kong arms that the Monster craved when Juan Gonzalez was potentially coming to town.

Speaking of the Monster, the Padres declined his option. If this guy wants to come back as a backup catcher, let's bring him back.

It wouldn't feel right winning a championship without him.

That's all I got.

Vaya con dios,

sip

Coop, my girl.

I feel like the cyber James Blunt. The girl that I see on the internet blog but simply can't have.

Still, you're beautiful.

Let us know when your birthday is, we can scrounge up that jobu doll somewhere.

VCD,

Sip

Thanks for the shout-out, but with these old knees I couldn't hold a candle to a rejuvenated Stevie Franchise and his 0-9 season debut.

New Knicks!
