Re: BREAKING: Knicks Won't Match, Lin to Rockets
@KBergCBSNew York has until 11:59 p.m. ET to formally cut ties with Lin. While decision not unanimous, source characterizes reversal as unlikely.

Yeah a derivative suit is possible at least. Very tough to pull off however. But it's something that is within the scope of reasonable.

Looks like with CAA (Melo & Woodson) here we gave up Lin for the hope of CP3

Not really. We are foolish enough to root for this franchise. Battered fan syndrome. We keep coming back for more.
Hope you guys and gals root for some non-terrible teams in other sports...

SAS was right all along because his source is Isiah Thomas and it's always been Isiah Thomas.

With Isiah and Dolan already in charge, we needed some presence of God. Satan won out.
Peace out, Lin.
The Knicks continue to be an organization led by shady characters and the head rots from the top.

For a person that complains about people using the "race card" for Lin all the time, you sure use it yourself a lot even when no sane person could see ANYTHING to do with race in my post unless we're talking about the color of the font. You're a terrible poster.
