Oh the Post


How many trampled upon minority groups can the New York Post insult in one day? At least two.

Oh that Stephon

Should we declare June 29 a national Stephon Marbury Reawakening Holiday? Yes, yes we should.

Q: And what of Stephon Marbury, who also helped create the Knicks' hostile work environment -- at least in the eyes of the plaintiff -- by having sex with one of the club's interns outside a strip club? What is the fallout for him?

A: He is not one of the defendants, so Marbury need only worry about the damage this episode did to his reputation -- and to his household.

But Marbury did bring a flash of enlightenment to the table Monday at the Knicks' media day, at least partly explaining his summer of bizarre behavior by revealing he has undergone a religious awakening.

"What was the highlight of my summer? When I gave myself to Jesus Christ. The day it happened was June 29," Marbury said. "What happened to me was I was able to see myself outside of myself. I was able to look in the mirror and really see myself. I saw the person who I wanted to be, and who I was looking at."

Oh that Isiah

NEW YORK (AP) - Former New York Knicks executive Jeffrey Nix remembered his reaction when Isiah Thomas was hired to run the once-proud franchise in December 2003.

"I know two friends of mine he owes money to," Nix testified at Thomas' ongoing sexual harassment trial.

Finally, Mahmoud enters the Zone

Here's the NY Times on the most ridiculous part of Mahmoud's speech at Columbia today:
In response to a question about the treatment of homosexuals in Iran, Mr. Ahmadinejad was initially evasive, instead talking about the death penalty, which, he pointed out, exists in the United States: “People who violate the laws by using guns, creating insecurity selling guns, distributing guns at a high level are sentenced to execution in Iran. Very few of these punishments are carried out in the public eye.”

Pressed by Dean Coatsworth on the original question about the rights of gay men and lesbians in Iran, Mr. Ahmadinejad said: “In Iran, we don’t have homosexuals like in your country. We don’t have that in our country.”

Simple as that eh Mahmoud? I'd daresay homosexuality is as Iranian as pistachio pie buddy. He went on to deny the existence of apples, closets, and the supposed internal organ known in the West as "the spleen".
