Disgruntled point guard Stephon Marbury and New York Knicks president Donnie Walsh met yesterday afternoon at the Knicks training facility with the hope of finding a resolution to their current stalemate. Unfortunately, things didn't go so well. But at least we scored a copy of the meeting's transcript ...
Donnie Walsh: At 2:30 p.m. on Monday, December the 1st, 2008, I, Donnie Walsh, officially call this meeting to order. You ready, Stephon?
Stephon Marbury: Hold on, let "Starebury" get some moisture up in deez rets. (Blinks rapidly) Okay, let's do this.
Walsh: In three ... two ... one ...

Marbury: Boom. Locked in.

Walsh: Ditto.

Marbury: ...

Walsh: I'm amazed you've lasted this long.

Marbury: I'm like a freakin' artificial ram.

Walsh: Impressive.

Marbury: I know.

Walsh: ...

Marbury: "No one on the corner got stare eyes like Steph, stare eyes like Steph, stare eyes like Steph ..."

Walsh: Is that really necessary?

Marbury: "No one on the corner got stare eyes like Steph, stare eyes like Steph, stare eyes like Steph ..."

Walsh: You can't seriously think a little song is going to break me? I once out-stared Stephen Jackson's pretty mug for some 36-plus hours. Get comfortable, kid.

Marbury: ...

Walsh: ...

Marbury: ...

Walsh: Hey! Eye contact!

Marbury: Sorry, I forgot what we we're doing there for a second.

Walsh: ...

Marbury: ...

Walsh: Good gum?

Marbury: Bazooka Joe.

Walsh: Ah, a classic.

Marbury: ...

Walsh: Hey! (Whistles) Line of gaze!

Marbury: ...

Walsh: You're not very good at this.

Marbury: ...

Walsh: What are you smiling at?

Marbury: I just remembered I'm getting paid $21 milllion to look at those bags.

Walsh: ...

Marbury: Dude, do you ever sleep?

Walsh: ...

Marbury: You look like Paul Bearer.

Walsh: ...

Marbury: You know, Kane, The Undertaker ... "I'm Paul Bearer and you're not!"

Walsh: Okay, time to put this baby to bed.

Marbury: What are you doing?

Walsh: Look into my eyes, look into my eyes ...

Marbury: Hey! Stop that! You can't use glasses.

Walsh: The eyes, the eyes, not around the eyes, don't look around my eyes, look into my eyes ...

Marbury: No! No! Haigas, help! Call the cops! Call Derek Fisher!

Walsh: Right into my eyes, deep into my eyes, you're in my eyes, you are my eyes ...

Marbury: BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! (Blinks) I GIVE! I GIVE! UNCLE!

Walsh: Phew. (Checks watch) 15 minutes. New record.

Marbury: I'M BLIND! DEAR LORD, I'M BLIND!

Walsh: Now get the hell out of here.

Marbury: You have problems, old man. Sick, sick problems.

Walsh: Yeah, boo-hoo. Say hi to your mother for me, okay?

seriously...can someone pay me only a measely $100,000 to do what "starebury" is doing to get paid these days.....$21 million.....oh my g.d! for all that money he acts like such a big jerk!!!
if i had one wish for marbury...it would for him to lose every single dime he has ever earned in the nba and let him feel what it is truly like to work a 9-5 job that you truly hate...getting paid minimum wage, raise a family...and try to pay your rent with that.
marbury...starbury, or starebury or whatever you want to be called....i respected you as a player when you were with the timberwolves and as selfish as you were in nj.....but now
you are just a selfish bastard!!!!! may god have mercy on your own soul......who in the world gets paid $20 million...not thousands.......millions.....just to play ball. man you are living the greatest life and do not even know it...yet you act like the biggest jerk of them all!!!!
shame on you marbury......i will never, ever purchase any more products with the name marbury on it....i do not care how cheap it gets!! you are a big letdown to me as a fan (once a big fan of yours) and the ny knicks franchise........$21 million!!!!!!!!! unbelievable!!!!!!!
msg, mr dolan....please could you throw some money my way...i could really use it! the difference is...i would do a whole lot more than marbury has ever done for your organization in 5 years!!!!

Don't worry, Andrew K. Kobe would have beaten all of them in a staring contest.

because he is not going to give away his money like that. I don't believe D'Antoni and he looks like he is lying. In this case i believe steph and i think the Knicks management wants to embarrass him but at the end they are going to look like a fool.
