James Dolan's beard isn't quite big or white enough, but he'll resemble Santa Claus on April 14 when the Knicks play their final home game of the season against the Boston Celtics. As a small thank-you to fans who were so supportive of his dreadfully losing team all year, the Cablevision chief is providing free food and soft drinks to all in attendance. Madison Square Garden this season was filled to 96 percent capacity, with 18 sellouts (and three more expected in the last four games, including the finale against Boston). "Other teams have done free food as part of a promotion to get people to buy tickets, but never after a game is already sold out," marveled one NBA source. -- NY Post

So let me figure this out ... it should be about 73 hot dogs, 25 waters, 17 Cokes, 11 Diet Cokes, 9 Root Beers and 11 Ginger Ale's. Does that sound about right ???

I love it. Honestly. Telling the fans, hey, we know we stunk and we know we made headlines for all the wrong reasons. But you guys stuck with us through it all, so thanks. I wish more sports teams would do things like this for their fans during bad seasons.

The reason the Knicks stink is the fans aren't smart enough to stay home and hurt Dolan in the wallet.
