He may be a terrible sports owner, but hey, on the other hand, he's the world's finest musician and stage performer. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you, JD and the Straight Shot.

He's in a state of arrested development, desperate for paternal approval, which will never be forthcoming. Imagine being given a multi-billion dollar asset NOT because you're capable of managing it, but to keep you occupied, and get you out of dad's hair because you're a colossally annoying eff-up. That's gotta be some psyche-shredding pressure.

I've seen him compared here to Sterling, but the specifics of the Knicks problems are totally unrelated to the shortcomings of Sterling. Sterling was a notorious cheapskate, who would not pay to keep actual talent. Dolan overpays everybody, talented or not.

Sterling was a notorious racist, while Dolan cultivates relationships with African-American execs to show how he's one of the guys.

Sterling's dementia (along with a hoochera and a recording device) did him in. Dolan, unfortunately, is a younger man whose paranoia serves him better than Sterling's libido did him.

Does Dolan have a Silly Rabbit?
