He was a real pleasure to have. So we're going to take a serious look at seeing if there is a way to retain him. Early last week, New York point guard Charlie Ward apologized for remarks construed by some as anti-Semitic. Ward's three-paragraph apology was released by the Knicks on Monday night, one day after he was booed during a home playoff game. I hate when they get together and pray after the game, and it's just stupid to me.
