It’s been a rough season for Knicks fans but one fan decided to take it too far when letting out his frustrations.
A lot of Knicks fans of course blame the team’s issues on the owner James Dolan. They often berate and insult Dolan on online forums like Twitter and Facebook, however one fan went a step further and delivered his threats straight to Dolan himself.
From CBS New York (via HoopsHype):
A Staten Island teenager was arrested for allegedly threatening New York Knicks owner James Dolan.
As WCBS 880′s Irene Cornell reported Friday, 19-year-old John Giamella was arrested and hauled into court on a charge of aggravated harassment for allegedly making threats online against Dolan.
He said of the Knicks owner in his email postings, “it’s officially time to die — I really hate James Dolan.”
I too am a Knicks fan and understand his frustration but this clearly wasn’t very smart. Online threats are starting to be taken just as serious as those made offline. Trust me kid, it isn’t worth it…
