The Jeremy Lin Backlash: "It's true that if he were black this would probably be a smaller story, but if he weren't talented it would not be be a story at all."
Opinion: Man to man defense: "As a father of two young sons myself, all of us big fans of Number 17, I’m hoping that continued success as a player and as a person will put Lin's quiet brand of masculinity on the map."

Dear MSG And Time Warner Cable: Eat A Bag Of Salted Dicks: "Linsanity reached a fever pitch last night, and judging from Twitter, all of North America saw it happen. Not me.
