Kim Kardashian Trying To Date Jeremy Lin


Kim Kardashian and Jeremy Lin aren’t dating. But Kim Kardashian, Jeremy Lin dating reports are being sought by Kardashian’s publicity machine, claims a new report. Kardashian’s public relations team allegedly wants Kim Kardashian to be seen dating Jeremy Lin.

A new report today claims that the Kardashian-Jenner public relations team wants Kim Kardashian and Jeremy Lin dating now. Kardashian has usually tried to stay away from “Lindsanity”; but now she allegedly wants to a part of “Linsanity”. The report claims that the pr team has already envisioned a double date with Karsdashian-Lin and Carmelo Anthony with his wife. “Kim’s publicist arranged for her to go on a “date” with NY Knicks player Jeremy Lin” claims the report today.

Please Jermey Lin don't do this. That family is the devil. It's all publicity, and I really just hope this skank gets hit by a train or something. The whole family is just a bunch of skanks selling themselves for a buck (well much more than that, but you get the point).

If prostitution is illegal, then the Kardashians should be illegal.

Why Not?

Why not watch the legend of Lin continue to grow?

Jeremy Lin-gers on in New York


I've been talking about Jeremy Lin since he was in college. I was privileged to see him dismantle Boston College twice. What amazed me was hos quick he was with his movements, and how tight his dribble was. He's a smart player, but the athleticism is there. He might not be able to sprint up and down the court with the NBA's fastest players, but in short bursts, he might be the quickest draw in the Association.

A few haters have been saying that Lin is only front-page news because he's Asian-American. But I think his play has spoken louder than the haters' words. You have an undrafted Harvard alum (Harvard, like all Ivy League schools, doesn't offer athletic scholarships) leading the New York Knicks to victory when their so-called stars are out. This story is a story no matter what the ancestry of the main character is. I think this story occurring in New York is a bigger reason for this story's prominence then Lin's race.

Yes, he is Asian-American. But more importantly, he's a really good basketball player.

I've always liked Lin. He plays the game smart, he plays the game fast. He decides what to do, then does it before the defense realizes he'll do it. He is lightning fast. He's just fun to watch. It's a rare combination of fundamental soundness and awareness with sheer athleticism.

Floyd Mayweather Criticizes Jeremy Lin Hype


"Jeremy Lin is a good player but all the hype is because he's Asian. Black players do what he does every night and don't get the same praise," Mayweather wrote on his Twitter account.

"Its OK for ESPN to give their opinion but I say something and everyone questions Floyd Mayweather," the boxer tweeted. "I'm speaking my mind on behalf of other NBA players. They are programmed to be politically correct and will be penalized if they speak up. Other countries get to support/cheer their athletes and everything is fine. As soon as I support Black American athletes, I get criticized."

Ugh, you knew someone was going to do it. Someone was going to take this great story and have to make it somehow racist. Is Lin's popularity tied at all to race? Yes, of course. We haven't really had an Asian player take over games, other then Yao and he was a big man not a PG. So sure, it has to do with race because it's something we haven't seen before, like when Tiger exploded onto the golf scene. People get excited when something different comes around.

Plus, I don't think this is all tied to basketball. This is a guy who came out of nowhere. I mean he went to Harvard, was cut by 2 teams, and now is dropping 30+ points a night in the NBA. Not too many stories like that come around. Gilbert Arenas was kind of like it, and I remember "Agent 0" getting a ton of hype.

So you know what Mayweather, why don't you just leave the kid alone and let everyone enjoy this? We all love an underdog story and this is nothing more than that. Sit in your house, talk to yourself and the 3rd person and prepare for jail.

Melo Out 1-2 Weeks


The Knicks announced today Carmelo Anthony is out 1-2 weeks with a strained right groin. So Linsanity better be sustainable or the Knicks could come completely apart. DP hates Melo. I used to be a big fan from his time at Cuse, but even I have to admit he has been terrible for this team. He shoots too much, and just hasn't been a good addition at all. So, maybe this is a good thing for the Knicks and they can find some offensive rythm with guys like Jeremy Lin, who is coming off 2 straight games of 25+ points.

If the Knicks win without Melo it might be time to start looking to deal him. I know that sounds crazy, but they are a better team without him.

Knicks Now In the Lead For Tyson Chandler?


"Multiple league executives say the Knicks are now in the lead to land Tyson Chandler, jumping in front of the Warriors. If the deal goes through, the Knicks use amnesty on Chauncey Billups and move Ronny Turiaf to make room for Chandler, sources say.'

This seems very odd to me. For one wouldn't this take them out of having any chance to sign Chris Paul next season? I mean unless Chris Paul wants to go there so bad the he will take a lot less money. Also, this would give the Knicks basically not PG for the upcoming season.

I am not sure if I believe it, but as a Celtics fan I guess I kind of hope it's true, because it would take another team out of the running for Howard/Paul for next season.
