1. Ooand1 trying to reverse his car. And us deciding he was a girl from then on.
2. Aqua and his britney fetish
3. Me, Knicks742, hoodie, ooand1, richard hutnik and others had an off season ot thread that spanned like three versions that, unless i´m just being nostalgic, was epic.
4. Punch her in the Face.
5. Bukkake.
6. Everything krok related.
7. Bill asian´s fetish, him telling us about his blind dates, and the girl from the chinese place (or was that last one krok?)
8. Flaming Moe (from germany, right?) was a cool dude.

I don´t post much, and lurked for a looong time before registering, but i´ve had great time here. I still remember this board´s reactions when we got marbury, crawford, etc.


You basically nailed it... Krok's thread on the chinese take out girl... I laughed, I cried... Bill Bradley was always kewl... I remember him trying to get Knicks fans to go to a game in Boston with our guys, talking about we can't be ashamed of our internet lives... terrible lol... The ass threads with in-depth analysis and names.. The badonkadunk, the bubble, ironing board, etc... Bradley's blame it on rio and blind dates.. David Lee's expression when we traded for Zach Randolph on game night... Penny Hardaway... KG being the first free agent/major trade target for three years only to go to Boston...

I joined this board in '04 I think, and there was definitely a golden age right around 2006-7.. The off season threads could be better than the in season threads.. I never posted much so nobody remembers me, but this was a great idea OP...


I remember you.

Whatever happened to him I wonder...


I'm still here but I'm more of a lurker these days... also got involved on a Jets Message Board where I post a bunch these days...

I think when I joined it was a year before the McDyess trade. I was hoping we could end up with Melo in the lottery and like him better than LeBron back then. Still do actually. The first discussions were about Postell, who to draft, Frank Williams and all that stuff... ahh good old times! I didn't really follow what happened with TKF but whatever some people say, he is a freaking legend on this board. If there is such thing as a message board legend! :D
Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies...

Funny thing is I remember back when both myself and Jordan4life were begging Scott Layden to draft Amare Stoudemire and pair him with Camby. Guess I finally got my wish somewhat, even though neither has really stepped onto the court yet

What happened to Jose7? I feel like I haven't seen him in a while.
Also I remember, I think it was him, he got pulled up on stage at I think a Joe Budden concert and just straight up blanked and couldn't remember the words at all.
And honestly most of these posts have been so dope, nice to just reminisce. And I'm gonna have to CoSign Flamingmo, TKF is a legend of this board.

He used to post a ton, I just haven't noticed him recently. I'm pretty much just a full time lurker now. I used to be Lebron2NY2010. That was embarassing when he didn't come and they weren't doing name changes. I remember somebody suggested I do Melo2NY2011 at the time but I was afraid we wouldn't get him lol

Sadly that's pretty much all I remember. It was like a couple years back, pretty sure it was jose7. Basically this poster like really idolized joe budden(pretty sure) and at the concert he got called up on stage and handed a mic and he just straight up couldn't remember the words to the song at all. But he was still like really hype about it and it was pretty cool.

Did Jose7 post a video of it or something? Or did he actually share this story with you guys in an OT thread?

Thats Prig and his vintage vehicle. He has pictures of more of his cars and stuff.

I just like this because of thought of "bandwagon" when I saw it. Plus I thought Prig looks pretty cool with jorts and a Knicks t shirt.

Definately not my ford, I did not even know it was a ford. :lol:

That whole Nuggets-Knicks brawl was pathetic. It was all orchestrated by Isiah. Isiah put together an awful team that couldn't beat anyone and had to resort to starting fights with people out of pure bitterness. Dude is a disgrace since his retirement.

...which always struck me as funny because the better one would be the one we'd be more likely to need to GIVE UP for Carmelo **** Anthony. I always liked both players and am somewhat disappointed that WC doesn't really have a home with the Nuggets. He was a good dude, skilled, and he always played hard on both ends.

My whole beef with the trade is that it made us incredibly weak up front which put Amare at risk. We lost Mosgov and even Randolph and the only other guy behind Amare was like Sheldon Williams or some dopes like that. The Billups portion killed our flexibility to continue to develop the team and support the front line. Sure enough, Amare's minutes increased even more and he started to wear down. My big FA target for the summer was Marc Gasol - Tyson second. I wanted to throw the moon at him to protect Amare, anchor the D, and be that passing big that really moves MDA's system. Looking at the Grizz, it's hard to argue with him as a target. Gasol/Gallo/Stat is a formidable front line that can hurt teams in a lot of ways.

The (Tyson) Chandler move really made up for a lot of the faults of the Melo deal though but that combination of players was the death knell for MDA here. He was obviously the wrong guy for that group but did a nice job pumping up some of the guys here for his first few years. Even got Chris Duhon rolling, lol

Ah well. Last year was one step back to take two forward with a new coach. We got lucky in that there was no way of knowing the amnesty provision would be available to us (granted, GMs must have known it was on the table). But I'll take it. This team was due for some damn luck after all those snakebit years.

No doubt. Pathetic. That team was such a **** embarrassment.

On Melo though - of all the people you could sucker punch in that situation... Channing Frye :lol: :lol: :lol:

It was pretty weak sauce there as well.

:lol: @ the Isiah years. The team had no chance of winning, even with that payroll. I was not that big of a Knick fan back then. I missed 2-3 seasons completely.

The fact that the team and some of the fans, including myself, knew winning was out of the question, and were just mad that they lost the brawl.

Hopefully one of the other posters can correct me if I was wrong, but there was definitely an OT thread where he shared the story with us. Not sure if there was a video, might've been.
And that name was the biggest struggle. Imagine posting post-decision with that name, especially on the GB or other team forums :oops:

So...The Knicks were not good back then so you didn't watch them? But now that we are good, you're back to being a fan?

Bandwagon? :o :)

I watched the Knicks in the Layden era. Lost interest big time when Isiah made things bad. Then I got interested again once Donnie Walsh took over.

It wasn't that they were not good, it was there was no hope whatsoever. I did not see the Knicks going anywhere with the likes of Jermone James, Eddy Curry, and other big contract players who did not produce. I really did not see a reason to watch. Thank god for Nate and David Lee during those times. The Knicks were still my team, I just did not closely watch or follow the NBA in general during those times.

Pablo bandwagon trunk is just for jokes and humor.
