Start your day off with this ridiculous Knicks fact

Sometimes in life, you have to find the silver linings to get by. And as a Celtic fan, I know one thing that helps me get through the day is knowing that things could be a lot worse.

Featured above is the 1993 Heisman trophy winner, Charlie Ward. Why is he relevant to the conversation? Well, as pointed out by Jared Dubin, he's the last first round pick the Knicks have re-signed.


That's kind of an astounding amount of incompetence. In twenty years, you'd have to think that the Knicks would've at least stumbled into something, right? Nope. Concrete jungle where players fail or get traded, I suppose.
