Anucha Browne Sanders Continues Knicks Full Court Press

In a bizarre twist (as though there have been any twists that weren't bizarre) in the Isiah Thomas sexual harassment trial, the Post reports that a Knicks intern who succumbed to Stephon Marbury in the back of a car has agreed to testify for the defense. In other words, she's going to clear Marbury of any wrongdoing or inappropriate behavior (except, you know, cheating on his wife). This is an effort to clear up the impression that lawyers for plaintiff Anucha Browne Sanders are trying to create, which is that the Knicks enterprise is macho and sexist. But just as they try to staunch that wound, another one has sprung open. The Daily News reveals that Browne Sanders unearthed a Burn Book written by Madison Square Garden officials describing what they'd like to do to the comely Rangers ice dancers. And we're not talking about assisting with a double-hand lift. It boggles the mind why the Knicks haven't settled yet. This circus of sleaze is only going to get worse, and knowing this city's tabloids, it's only a matter of time before the team gets rechristened "The New York Dickerbockers."
