Donnie joins the circus
It’s official: Donnie Walsh is the new Knicks president. But we’ll see if he has any ‘real’
power - how soon can he show Isiah Thomas the door?
If Thomas stays, even as team janitor, that’s just a sign that Jimmy Dolan is dumber than we thought. The elephants at Barnum and Bailey don’t stink it up as bad as this clown has.
Still, who’d have thought the Knicks would make a move before the Nets? Rod Thorn, the Lawrence Frank Era should have ended even before Jason Kidd packed his bags for Dallas. If you can’t make a better showing in a weak Eastern Conference, there’s a problem.
Rod, if YOU are not part of the problem, then part of the solution is bringing in a new voice to coach the team.

I remember Donnie Walsh way back in high school in the 1950's and 60's. He went to Fordham Prep and was one of the best basketball players I've ever seen. Basketball was in Donnie's blood back then, and it still is. He was also a bit of a rebel. I remember going to a school prom where the boys all wore white jackets and black pants. Donnie was the only one in a checkered jacket and black pants! Loved that crew cut, too! I went to an all-girls high school, Elizabeth Seton in Yonkers, and Donnie married a girl from my 1960 graduating class by the name of Judy Walsh. I'm glad they are both back in NY and hopefully, I will get to see Judy at our 50th Seton reunion in 2010. Welcome home, Donnie and Judy!!
