I think it is Phil Jackson Time!
I think we have the talent to win a championship but we just don't have the coach to motivate the team. I time we get rid of Pringles and call up Phil Jackson and ask him how much do you want to coach the Knicks. You know he will guide us to a championship. He has won as well all remember with the Bulls and then pulled it of with the Lakers. I don't think the players believe in D'Antoni anymore and being that this is a short season it would be better to get rid of him now bring in Jackson get to the playoffs and see what we we can do. I am not saying he is not a good coach D'Antoni is a good coach but we need a great coach to handle this Knicks team!
LAME DUCK GM?
Ok is it just me or does it seem like Cashman has not done a thing this offseason to improve our rotation. Mark Buehrle signed with the Marlins, C.J. Wislon just signed with the Angels and we signed Freddy Garcia? Yes Garcia had a good year but we all know that that rotation was not good enough for the long run in Postseason. Yes we did keep CC Sabathia but we can't just hope CC keeps pitching us out of jams like he has been. Today is the day Darvish post are we going to out bid the RedSox or are we going to let another pitching prospect leave. It time Brian Cashman stops rappelling down buildings and starts making some moves to get us to number 28. So far all I have seen are other teams improve their roster.
Knicks vs. Spurs
Living in San Antonio, TX I don't get to see my Knicks play that often and I am excited I got tickets to see the Knicks play the Spurs tonight. I know we got our butts kicked by the Rockets but I have a feeling this may be the turning point for the Knicks tonight. We already beat the Spurs once and hopefully we will have some confidence to take them out again tonight. I only wish Melo was going to be a Knick tonight. I think that we really do need a second big playmaker in order to make us compete for a championship because if you look around the league. (Not just Miami and Boston) LA has Kobe, Odom, Gasol Spurs got Paker, Manu, Duncan, the teams that have a real chance at winning have at least 2-3 big play makers. How great would it be to have Amare, Melo, and Paul. I know it is only a dream to have all 3 but it's one I wish would happen. Well come on Knicks lets beat the Spurs tonight.
Our Nightmare!

This would not only be embarrassing but would make me and probably every Yankee fan sick to their stomach. Cash, Hal lets get a deal done to keep the Captain and Mo and start focusing on Lee and the rest of the rotation so we can win number 28. You will make the money back in promotions and jersey sales and promotions once you sign DJ. Reward him for being a good solider. He didn't cry like A-Rod and ask for more money he never talked bad about managers or criticized them when the team was not doing so hot. He has shown loyalty his whole time in NY and it time we return the favor. PLEASE GET THIS DEAL DONE!
Need some help
Ok everyone I am doing a research paper for my college class. We were allowed to pick anything we want as long as it was something you loved. I chose to pick the New York Yankees since I am a huge fan. The aspects of the Yankees that I will be conducting research on will be the history, the players, and the behind the scene business aspect and the fans. One does anyone know how I could get a hold of maybe someone who is like a historian/ Public Relations Officer for the NY Yankees? Then can anyone recommend any books about the Yankees that I could use. Finally will anyone be intresed in being interviewed for the fan portion of the paper. I have not gotten question together yet but I am working on them. If so please let me know. Thank you.
Question if you...
Could add one bat and one pitcher to the Yankees roster who would it be? Who would you love to see in a Yankee Uniform. Don't make it a player that would just be a fix for this year and thats it make is someone who we could help us for a couple of years at least four to five more years anyway. If it was me I would take Jason Heyward from the Braves as a batter he is young and powerful and I think he is better than Carl Crawford.
For the pitcher I would take David Prince from the Rays. I think he is going to be a very good pitcher and hopefully the Yankees pursue him once he become a free agent. I think he would fit in well and would be a good replacement for Andy Pettitte once he retires.
What really annoys me!
You know what really annoys me is how much the media pumps up the Red Sox. I don't get it they have a high payroll just like the Yankees but for some reason they are always making them to be the comeback kids! I mean really what is the media's deal? Why don't they talk about Tampa Bay and how they are kicking but or how the Reds,Rangers and Padres are in first place. All of those teams are the real underdogs. The Red Sox had the Number 2 payroll but they are portrayed as underdogs right. The payroll of the the Reds is the 19th highest, the Rays have the 21st, the Rangers have 27th and the Padres are ranked 29th. These teams are the real underdogs. I mean don't get me wrong I am not happy that we have two game lead on the wild card and trailing the Rays but I get sick and tired of hearing about the Red Sox. Last year when the Yankees trailed all year you didn't hear them hype the Yankees catch up. If you did hear about it they sounded like they were disappointed. People say the Yankees are bad for baseball because they always win. If that is they case then I would say the Red Sox are just as equally bad for baseball. They spend just like the Yankees, the have players who got caught using PED's but you wouldn't know it because no one talks about that.
When Alex Rodriguez got caught you heard about it for months when David Ortiz got caught you heard about it for a week. The Yankees don't win all the time this last Championship was the first in six years. They don't buy championships because if that was the case we should have won every year since 2000. I think the Yankees proved that last year when they one yeah they spend alot but you can spend 300 million on payroll and if the team does not play as a team they will not win a championship. It takes, talent, skills, and teamwork to win a championship in baseball. So I wish the media would get off the Red Sox's nuts and start giving some respect to the teams who lead their division and the teams who lead the wild cards.
Lowell
Mike Lowell wants to be released and we need a bat would you sign him? I mean he can't be worst than Nick Johnson right? If not who would you like to see in our DH spot since Posada is out? I think he be worth the league min. But I still think we should have kept Matsui or Damon especially over Nick Johnson. I mean why would Cash sign this guy who can't stay healthy to save his life?
How to get Lebron
I have the master plan to get Lebron James fire Mike D'Antoni hire Phil Jackson and give Lebron and Wade money will attemtping to resign David Lee. With Jackson as coach Lebron will come because he is already proved he can coach a team to win multiple Championships and Wade wants to play with Lebron and he already knows the taste of Victory he can help Lebron out so Lebron does not have to score 60 points a night for his team to win! Since Jordan has left the NBA only one player can be compared to him and it's not James (Not Yet!) It's Kobe Bryant he has multiple championships and he can take over a game Lebron can do the same but does not have the rings Phil Jackson will help Lebron win a Championship and help him reach the same stardom as Kobe and Jordan.
And you thought my Houston idea was crazy
http://www.fannation.com/truth_and_rumors/view/182975-struggling-vazquez-to-the-mets
Check this out now this is crazy. I would never even think about this. Someone at the New York Daily News wrote this one. Ok I was wondering what should we do about CF since Ganderson is on the DL should we look for a Free Agent to sign? Let it play out or trade Javy back to Atlanta for Melky and give Joba a chance as a number five starter and move Hughes to number 4?
New Month...
Ok the other day I talked about trading Javy for Oswalt. I was just letting the frustration of his bad month get to me. So I am willing to say that maybe we should give Javy a chance. He was playing well in Atlanta and CC and AJ had bad beginings last year. Not to mention some of our stars are having a slow April but we have a good record and I think in May we will heat up and pass the Rays. Yes I also did bash A-Rod and I should not have done that he is a great player and a good Yankee. So I am intrested in seeing what others may think we should do to improve our game this month. Do you think we should make any trades? Do you think we have any holes to fill?
A Houston we have a trade offer......
Well I am just about done with Javier Vazquez pitch in pinstripes his number are horrible. He can't cut it in New York. I was thinking about making a possible trade yes I know the season is early but I just don't see him doing any better and I don't want to them to bring Joba out of the bullpen. We should offer the Houston Astros Vazquez for Oswalt. He is a year younger than Vazquez and a better pitcher he is currently 2-2 with an ERA 2.72. Houston is not going to compete this year so they should let him get a chance to win a championship. Vazquez can go back to a market that does not have alot of pressure to win and where they aren't expecting him to win. Plus Oswalt worked with Andy Petttie when they took Houston from zero to hero and won the NL pennant I think he can give the Yankees a good pitcher to fill that hole in the rotation that Vazquez has left us.
Manu Ginobili
What do you guys think about maybe going after Manu Ginobili? I live here in San Antonio and I see Spurs Highlights all of the time (I hate the Spurs) but Manu plays some good ball and I was wondering if anyone would like to see him with the Knicks. I would I mean this guy has the ability to take over a game he scored like 43 points the other night and he was scored at least 30 points a game a couple times within the past month. He would be a good edition to any big name free agent we sign what do you guys think?
T-Mac
Ok on Espn T-Mac is stating that he does not see Lebron coming to New York etc.... I was just wondering how the hell does he know he is going to be a Knick next season? I mean he only playing 23 games this season and guess what here he is injured with his knee. (again) If he can't handle a couple of games right now then what makes you think he can handle a 82 game season. As far as I am concerned T-Mac should be a last ditch option. When he is healthy he is a great player but we can't afford to waste money on people who may or may not be playing. I am open to a one year contract at the league min. Then if he proves his worth then reward him. If he is not willing to do that then let him go somewhere else.
