Craig began today's radio program on a somewhat somber note, if you're a Mets' fan anyway.
Let's face it: keeping Jeremy Lin was an on-court and financial gamble the Knicks couldn't risk taking.
Lin became a Houston Rocket on Tuesday night when the Knicks refused to match a three-year deal worth about $25 million, ending a brief but amazing run as New York's point guard.
Linsanity in New York is, well, gone with the Lin. Did the Knicks make the right move or will regret eventually rear its ugly head?
Jeremy Lin could be a starting point guard in this league for a decade. He could make All-Star teams. And the Knicks just gave him up for nothing.
After discussing how durable former Knicks and new Rockets point guard Jeremy Lin will be moving forward with Boomer, Craig compared the phenomenon to the sexually transmitted infection known as gonorrhea,
Despite their best efforts, the Mets were dealt a deflating loss last night in Washington, falling to the Nationals 5-4 in 10 innings.
The Rockets will now get a second chance to capitalize on the point guard. Except this time, the unknown player Houston waived before last season will come at a high cost.
Ever hear of the stretch provision? It might just save Jeremy Lin's career in New York.
No way the New York Knicks were letting Lin get away back then, when he was the biggest thing in basketball. Things are different now.
Well, Linsanity was fun while it lasted.
Some Knicks fans aren't ready for the end of Linsanity.

The great Jerry "Rello" Recco gave us his first update of the morning.
Raymond Felton is returning to New York, calling into question whether the Knicks plan to re-sign fellow point guard Jeremy Lin.
Lin, at this point in his career, is a nice player. He can handle the ball decently and he can score fairly well while leading his team's offense. But that's it. He's not a great ball player by any stretch.
After an article in the Daily News yesterday, a lot of Jeremy Lin talk has dominated the Knicks' scene. Lin, nothing short of a phenomenon last year, is starting to see the dark side of being the man in the spotlight in New York.
The Dwight Howard trade saga seems to be over, at least for now. The Brooklyn Nets have moved on to their backup plan, reaching an agreement on a reported four-year deal with Brook Lopez.
By all accounts, the Knicks are expected to match Lin's offer sheet from the Houston Rockets, reportedly worth around $29 million over four years. But they might have some explaining to do.
The Rockets would get guard Toney Douglas, forward Josh Harrellson, center Jerome Jordan, second-round picks in 2014 and 2015, along with cash to pay Douglas' salary, according to the report.
There's a lot of mileage on the 39-year-old knees of Jason Kidd, but even in the twilight of his career he still has plenty to offer to the New York Knicks.
They say everything is bigger in Texas. We'll soon find out that's true concerning Jeremy Lin's contract.
Lin can sign the offer sheet with Houston on July 11, and the Knicks will then have three days to match the offer.
Orlando should make Howard pay for his stupidity and his nonsense. He deserves it.
