Eddy Curry

Most of you Both Teamsters should probably know Zach Harper from, among many other things, his contributions to The NBA Logo Ranking Project and our on-going Talking Hoops with Talk Hoops series. (That reminds me, I actually owe him an email right now as a matter of fact … stay tuned).

Well, he and some other NBA scholars have a podcast that I rather enjoy called The Weekly Fix, and they just dropped the 81st episode today, which I will presume is the Terrell Owens edition. That’s quite a few, so kudos on that, Mssrs. Harper, Gallawa and Eisner.

I haven’t listened to it yet, so I’m not really here to endorse this particular episode. I just needed to point out how great the photo is that they included in the post.

It’s the top one of Manu, Peja and some other dudes.

I have included two other photos that it reminded me of.

We should probably start calling Eddy Curry by the name “Gas Giant.” You in?

“Take A Tour of Eddy Curry’s Body”

by Jared Wade on November 2, 2009 at 1:35 pm · 0 comments

I know Halloween is over, and the title of this post conjures a brand of horrifying terror that not even Michael Myers can match, but, fortunately, the below video is only about his tattoos. (Although if you do really want a good Eddy Curry body-related scare in your life, just click right here and look at this photo.)

In this soliloquy he did for Mouth Piece Sports, Curry says that he got his first tattoo when he was 16 around the time when a lot of people were getting inked up because they wanted to be like Allen Iverson. Eddy was 16 in 1998 (which, by my math, means good news, Knicks fans: he should be entering his prime any day now), which was indeed the height of the era when AI was scaring white people by bringing the hood to the game where they love him for the braids and tats.

But Big Ed reveals his inattention to detail and fundamental logic when he tries to articulate the fact that, sure, he was inspired by AI, but, unlike other people, he didn’t want to emulate The Answer. Says Curry: “A lot of people were copying his tattoos and a lot of my friends were copying his tattoos. I’m glad I didn’t do that.”

Apparently, Curry either (a) is not actually familiar with the tattoos Allen that has, or (b) does not recall getting a Chinese character put on his neck and has not looked in a mirror since that happened. Because Allen has Chinese characters on his neck and so does Eddy.

I’m not an anatomy professor, but that seems somewhat similar.

Shoeless Ed Curry

You just cannot fabricate things like this. (via @jose3030)

None other than Garden chairman James Dolan was on hand to see one of his biggest investments, Eddy Curry, prove that he is ready to resurrect his career.

And here’s the show Curry gave his boss: He forgot to bring his sneakers.

Blah, blah, blah, fat joke, blah, blah, blah.

Eddy Curry Might Counter Sue for Defamation

by Jared Wade on January 14, 2009 at 11:07 am · 0 comments

Predictably, Eddy’s lawyers are talking counter suit after yesterday’s revelations. (via Ball Don’t Lie)

Eddy Curry is considering a defamation suit against his former driver to combat the explosive sexual harassment and racial discrimination accusations levied against the Knicks center, Curry’s lawyer told Newsday yesterday.

“We’re considering any and all legal remedies,” Curry’s Chicago-based lawyer, Kelly Saindon said, “because this is just crazy.”

Also:

In addition to potentially suing Kuchinsky for defamation of character, Saindon said she will file a motion to dismiss the lawsuit on the basis that Kuchinsky’s employment contract stated that any workplace disputes would be brought before the American Arbitration Association in Chicago.

“Clearly,” she said, “he didn’t do that.”

Not much else to see here. Move along.

UPDATE: David Lee, Al Harrington and Mike D’Antoni have some comments. And they are of course right and I am of course part of the problem. (via Dime)
