With the NBA schedule being announced today, it was only a matter of time before the New York Knicks texted me to buy tickets. Well, at 4:54pm today, it came:
Knicks 2009-10 Schedule Released! Score your seat to see LAL, CLE & BOS. Season tix for as low as $25/game. Call a Knicks Rep @ 212-631-5484. STOP to QUIT.
And there it is, the begging has begun. Clearly they cannot rally potential ticket buyers around the possibility of seeing such elite athletes as Eddy “Still Needs to Lose 20 Pounds to Get Down to 285” Curry or Nate “Why Would I Ever Pass The Ball?” Robinson, but instead selling the idea of seeing elite teams come into Madison Square Garden and embarass the team I grew up cheering.
