According to the NY Post Deron Williams was at a photo recently and they were shooting for a giant billboard in Times Square. I'm at work so I can't post the link but it's in the Post under the page 6 'we hear...we hear' section. (Page 18 for those who have the actual paper)

Heat started 9-8
Bulls started 9-8
Lakers played poorly at the start

We came together with 27 games to go...Can we all shut the **** up about our players?

its only Dantoni's defensive focus that lacks...We have known that for years. Our guys are great

These are pretty nice.

I'm waiting for some full blown Knick colors to come out though. A pair with all of our colors incorperated.

WTF? That's right near MSG...NOT Times Square.

Ugh, here is the link:

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/18/opini ... .html?_r=1

Basically, you get to read 20 articles for free, and after that it's $15 a month to read on your comp. Add another $5 for a smartphone, and $35 for unlimited access with all devices.

If you subscribe to the actual hard copy paper, you get unlimited digital access.

Finally, the links you click off of twitter and facebook or other social media websites allow you to read the article notwithstanding the quota.

What do you guys think? Will you subscribe?

That's key. I won't subscribe my NYT quota will always be below their threshold for pay, but it's interesting. Newsday's attempt at this failed, but the NYT is another level in terms of Newspapers.

You know the xoom is like $800 right? For 32 Gigs. The 32GB iPad 2 is 600. No contract. Motorola is helping Verizon more than themsleves because theyre trying to get people to sign contracts and pay 30/ month for internet. I assume you already pay for internet on your phone so why would you wanna pay 60 a month for net and then if you have home net your gonna be spending 100 a month on internet? That's ridiculuous. Just get an iPad.

Tablets are a waste of money in my opinion...

These crazy smartphones are more than enough. For home? Buy a laptop..

Xoom is 589...the version without 3g. IPad 2 is superior imo.

I was worried that I won't be able to watch the Knicks in the playoffs this year due to all the schoolwork/night class schedule. Looking at the NBA schedule, looks like the first round of the playoffs will coincide with my spring break

Hunter College, it's a CUNY and all CUNYs have spring break at that time this year.

Do other schools do it to? I'm going on vacation around that time and I dont want to be around a bunch of springbreaking college kids (no offense lol).

I don't think so, few of my friends go to private colleges and had their spring breaks already.

Good stuff. I already got a couple of stacks saved up. Trying to go to every home game with decent seats!
