Actually, if anyone tried to google it, the Knicks are not named after pants.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_Knicks


The "Knickerbocker" name comes from the pseudonym used by Washington Irving for his A History of New York, which name became applied to the descendants of the original Dutch settlers of what later became New York, and later, by extension, to New Yorkers in general.[2]

besides being a pair of pants i think a knickerbocker is also a political party? or group of people from new york... they were named after a writer reffered to them as such.. or something like that, there is a story there..

also i wonder if that's where the word "nick name" came from?

That's like me naming a team the "2009ths" to mark the year of his inauguration as the first black president (which is a key event in American history).

How about you actually reply to what I say instead of changing the subject. You didn't know what 76ers meant, you pretend to be from New York, you pretend to hate someone yet you basically think about him day and night and you're calling me the loser? They should just ban you for how much you fail.

Lol, "pretend". I don't need to pretend anything. This is comical considering you ignore any type of subject and just post pictures in a feeble attempt to ridicule me. Lol.

In US history books it says that the Philadelphia 76ers were named after the year the Declaration of Indepdence (1776) was signed? That's a blatant lie.

Why would American history books say anything about a basketball team? :lol

Why are you being so **** about the term 76er? 1776 was when one of the most famous american events took place and it happened in philly so they decided to coin a name after it for a basketball team. :confusedshrug: Whats not to understand?

But the key event that happened in 1776 happened in the city in which the team resides. They are the philadelphia 76ers because the event happened in philadelphia. The event you're refering to did not happen in washington. Washington didn't exist at the time. Do you see the gap in logic?

Now, you're adding more variables as to what's important and what isn't. I'll continue to provide more examples and it's clear that you'll just attempt to invalidate it by saying either "it's not as important" or "it didn't happen there". But here's one more, since you're from the state of New Jersey, would you recognize that a if the team were to be called the New Jersey 87ers it would be because that was the year they were admitted into the Union? Doubtful.

So, just because you are a total moron means others must be as well? You are so transparent. I'm really sorry that you are this ignorant, so you must project that same level of ignorance to everybody else in order to make yourself feel equal, and not the massive idiot that you really are. There are people who understand the importance of Philadelphia in American history, and how intertwined the city's own identity is to the Declaration of Independence, Independence Hall, and the Liberty Bell. Just because you may not have understood that relationship doesn't mean that most people don't either. How about you stop being a stupid douchebag, pick up a book, and move on.

There are too many lazy bastards that don't know shit who then get pissed when you call them out on it.

Those bastards are how people like Glenn Beck are able to rise.



Because clearly I do know United States history and don't know sports history. And I'm not embarrassed about not knowing sports history. Look up the facts. Nowhere at any point in time was anyone referred to as a "76er" until the Sixers were named. That's a fact.
