Linsanity?

I don't want to seem a bandwagoner with the whole Jeremy Lin phenom... but even before Jeremy Lin blew up and became crazy famous, I had bought Knicks tickets as Jonson's Christmas present for a February game.  It just happened to be a few games after Lin went crazy and shat on everyone.  It ended up being a Knicks vs. Nets game in MSG.  We were thinking this game would be sorta boring because it it against the Nets and Carmelo Anthony was coming back to play after his strained groin... honestly we were expecting a blowout...
watching the players warm up. Jonson and I full of cuban food and mojitos (yumm) and all settled in to watch the the Knicks kick the Nets in the balls.  The beginning of the game was as expected.. knicks leading by ~10 points but then oohhh do the tables turn.  The knicks players weren't making their shots! and Deron Williams was pooping 3-pointers everywhere!  I was yelling "De-fense" at the top of my lungs but i guess the players didn't hear me :( the scoreboard should have looked like this at the end of the game..
If you can't see the scoreboard it says knicks 123 nets 18.. would have been linsane if that was true at the end of the 1st quarter.. I didn't even see the final score because we left with 3 minutes on the board to catch the lirr back home, which was filled with disappointed and cranky knicks fans.. the game itself was exciting to be at though. everyone boo-ed anytime kris humphries touched the ball... everyone cheered when deron williams was fouled out.  the knicks lost because of my curse.  every game that i've gone to (a grand total of 3), the team that i root for (who are usually playing crappy opponents) loses! but i would never give up a chance to go to another game. maybe ill just secretly root for the wrong team so that they lose?  anyways go linsanity! :) here is a blurry blurry picture of jeremy lin haha
