Can you say that about your boss?</div> It's from a Knicks fan perspective about the Nets moving to Brooklyn in 2010. I never thought about it this way before.

You can only take so much, you can root for them but when the character, heart, ownership and even the people that work there are now a monopoly I haven't gone to Knicks game since 05 - 06
Can you imagine a huge billboard with Jay-Z's "roc" hand gesture...and the Nets logo inside it? Sell out crowds; gyeah.
