The Revolution, Jeremy Lin


I've never been so Linsane about a subject, never been so Linstantly in awe with a sports figure, and never been constantly rooting for someone to succeed.  Jeremy Lin has taken us all on ride in not only a sports story, but a human story.  This is the "American Dream" in essence, where this unknown Asian kid, breaking stereotypes, who constantly overcame the obstacles and achieved tremendous success, overnight, in the greatest city in the world.  I have never rooted for any NBA player in my life like I am rooting for Jeremy Lin.  I hold my breath for every shot he takes hoping it touches nothing but net.  Their is something about this kid that everyone roots for.  If you have been watching these games, you see the fun his teammates are having watching him succeed.  Professional athletes rarely smile throughout games, but this Knicks team is constantly grinning.  Thats the craziest part of this story.  How this kid can change the game back to the game at the park, the game they grew up playing, and having fun with.  If Pittsburgh ever had an NBA team to call their own, it is these New York Knicks and its Jeremy Lin.


Let's Go Knicks.
