Forgive Him Lord, For He Knoweth Not What He Says


       Assuming the WNBA approves, Isiah Thomas will be part owner and coach of the New York Liberty, the women's team owned by James Dolan, the man who brought the Knicks to their current position in the NBA. Thomas, general manager of the Knicks, was convicted of sexual harassment in 2007. Not to worry. Thomas assures us the press that he has a daughter, and always respected his mother, both women, while fighting racism. Isiah played the mother and race cards, one jaded reporter wrote. Thomas didn't stop there. "I had the utmost respect for my mother when she was alive and" her comes the punch line, "I have great respect for humanity and also women." That's good news for both groups.
