There are multiple levels of hilarity to think that a basketball sensation turned internet meme is the cause of (my favorite team) the New York Knicks triumph back into the positive media spotlight. If you’ve been hibernating and don’t know who Jeremy Lin is, check out The New York Times’ topic page on him and just read through the headlines to understand what an unbelievable journey it has been for both him and the Knicks.

The ESPN editor fired Sunday for using “chink in the armor” in a headline about Knicks phenom Jeremy Lin said the racial slur never crossed his mind – and he was devastated when he realized his mistake.
“This had nothing to do with me being cute or punny,” Anthony Federico told the Daily News.
“I’m so sorry that I offended people. I’m so sorry if I offended Jeremy.”
The headline – “Chink in the Armor: Jeremy Lin’s 9 Turnovers Cost Knicks in Streak-stopping Loss to Hornets” – appeared on ESPN’s mobile website at 2:30 a.m. on Saturday and was removed by 3:05 a.m.
