Congrats on POTD!
As a Knicks Featured Columnist, I will be making periodical attempts to give fans an inside look at the different aspects of Knicks games. Take a look at what I came up with when Lebron James came to visit.

Congratulations on POTD, my friend!
I have enjoyed every single article of yours that I've ever read, but this one was special. You really showed a side of you that I've never quite seen before. Very impressive work.
To my eye, it might just be your best. VERY well-deserved Pick. :-)

Yes these losses are awful. Unfortunately, if Penn State wins today, I will have to root against Iowa next week as I need them to drop 2 for Penn State to go to the Rose Bowl.
Maybe a nice glass of wine or two....or three, might help. Good luck next year, not so much for us as this is the last year before we lose our whole defense and our quarterback.
The greatest teams win with back-ups, as we did last year against Ohio State. It is unfortunate that you lost Stanzi but I still thought Iowa would have pulled it out. Well, I don't know anything else to say but good luck getting over this loss. Images of it may haunt you well into the future, as last year's Iowa loss, this year's Iowa loss, and 2005 Michigan loss have haunted me.
