NY Knicks hold off on Jeremy Lin injury announcement until after NBA playoff ticket deadline passes

The Knicks were eventually going to get around to revealing the troubling results of Jeremy Lin’s MRI but certainly not before last Wednesday.

That was a crucial day inside the club’s executive offices at Two Penn Plaza because March 28 represented the deadline for season- ticket holders to purchase all four rounds of the playoffs.

In fact, in the email sent to subscribers, there is a picture of Lin leaping in celebration. Yet, it was two days before the deadline when Lin and the Knicks’ medical staff learned that the second-year point guard/cash cow was suffering from a torn meniscus in his left knee and that he wouldn’t be jumping for joy anytime soon.

Well I ain't first class
But I ain't white trash
I'm wild and a little crazy too
I have seen a lot of things in my life time.
That is why I walk the line I walk.

Why anyone is a pro sports fan is beyond me, I shut the door on pro sports decades ago because it was obvious that it is purely a business designed to wrench as many dollars as possible from gullible people while giving nothing other than empty hype in return. Teams have no real affinity for a home town, local talent or anything else that might matter to a local community.

This sounds oddly like a Ron Paul presidential campaign.. No chance of winning, no affinity to his supporters, all hype, and purely designed to wrench as much money from its idiot followers as possible....
