2006_03_sjailisiah.jpgAlbert Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over while expecting a different result. That means there are on average at least 18.824 insane people who keep going to Knicks games expecting to see a 19-51 team win. Add to that the fact that TV ratings are actually up 8% and it might be time to get another lock for your door.

Now Gothamist understands that many people still have a tough time coming to grips with the fact that the Knicks are a colossal mess, but come on people! Even if you have sunk your money into season tickets for this year, there are only five home games left. Show up with a paper bag over your head, you don’t want to be recognized and don’t spend $7,000 to repeat this agony again next season. And, whatever you do, don’t take kids to these games; they don’t need to see this.

Luckily, some inspired people have taken a more proactive approach venting their disgust for a good cause. And while we are at it, disgruntled Knicks’ fans now have an anthem to rally around.
