Captain Knick: Presidential Sweet

How can you not feel confident about Donnie Walsh? Jim “Coke Residue” Dolan always makes smart hires.

Former Indiana Pacers exec and New York native Donnie Walsh is replacing Isiah Thomas as Knicks team president. It’s got to be a wee bit prickly for Zeke to be replaced by the man who gave him his first coaching job. Walsh hasn’t yet stated whether he’s going to fire Zeke from his posts as the club’s coach, GM, and chief operator of sexual harassment, saying that he wants to first sit down with him and have a “meaningful basketball discussion.” Here’s to hoping the discussion centers around how hard the doorknob should hit him on his way out. As far as Walsh goes, he gets the benefit of the doubt, for now (I mean, the Pacers he just left have a wildly successful 31-43 record). Speaking of ineffectual employees, it’s time for one final 2007-2008 reading of the Eddy Curry Vagin-O-Meter, after the jump.

Eddy Curry is torn.

Out for the season with a tear in his vagina, the “All-star” center ranks an 11 out of 10, or in visual terms, he’s a slack yawning chasm (shout out to my Complex homie Peter Rubin for the mental image). Since he’s done loafing around on the court and helping the Knicks lose, all we can really do is wish Eddy and his vagina a speedy recovery.
