The Over Ponder Ep 20: Stopping Knicks Crazy

The New York Knicks have given all of us Knicks fans many reasons for hope - for this season and the future. Yes, actual REAL HOPE! Of course, some (only some) Knicks fans - scarred for the torment of the last twenty years - just don't know how to handle the brief, minor success. This Knicks fan uses a rare empty Friday Night without the Knicks to tackle some of the craziness that is happening in the young season. I talk Quickley, Payton, potential trades, developing young guys, and so much more. 

It's been a long time since I had a Knicks rant, and this episode was evidence of that.

WWE Wrestlemania XL Review: "I absolutely loved this Wrestlemania"

This was my son's first Wrestlemania as a pro wrestling fan. Having him at my side cheering on his favorites, getting caught up in the drama, and even crying at the end of the night because his Tribal Chief lost to "that no good Cody" added to the overall appreciation of the event.  So yeah, I have some

DP Review of the Alternate Knicks Orange Jersey

One of the good aspects about having a blog and being truthful and honest about it, is the hindsight thought process it provides. DP devotees already know how much I love my New York Knicks, and how excited I was about their new jerseys last year. It was a new look that was desperately needed ( DP Review On Knicks New Uniforms ).  In reviewing those jerseys last year, I had the following comments in regards to then-rumors regarding the addition of an alternative orange jersey for the Knicks and overall NBA changes to the Christmas Day special jerseys:  "As long as we do not add an "alternative jersey" (I read rumors of an orange one - woof!) (and the league-wide Spanish jerseys are fine). And please, please - PLEASE - let's finally do away with the awful green jerseys we feel the need to wear on Christmas and St. Patrick's day! Pretty please!"
