10.31.06 LARRY BROWN GOT PAID

As usual, David Stern swoops in, sweeps a mess under the rug, rolls the rug up, incinerates it, and has the ashes buried under the end zone at Gians Stadium. In other words, the Knicks and Larry Brown settled their case, and we're not going to learn the details.

"At my request, the New York Knicks and Larry Brown have agreed to a compromise resolution of the dispute between them," Stern said in a statement. "Neither the club nor Larry have any future obligation to each other and have assured me, in response to my direction and request, that there will be no further public discussion of the matter."

I really don't understand why David Stern isn't running a military dictatorship in South America, or some kind of Jewish mafia crime syndicate. That kinda stuff has got to be more profitable than being commissioner of the NBA. It's just so sad to see him keep his evil laugh bottled up all the time, and for him to use slick words to control spin when he'd be so much more comfortable petting a cat and saying things like, "Mr. Black, dispatch this nuisance" while a sexy secret agent bearing my resemblance struggled to escape.

Note: This is my last post of the day. I'm taking off to go volunteer at a children's Halloween party. And by "volunteer at a children's Halloween party," I mean "volunteer at a children's Halloween party." You sick bastards.
