According to this article, this Bishop has Knicks fans believing they can go all the way - to heaven. A Long Island bishop who used to play college hoops is using his beloved Knicks and their biblical 13-game postseason winning streak to get New Yorkers closer to God.
“Like Peter, James, and John were called from fishing nets, I was called from basketball nets,” Bishop John Barres of the Diocese of Rockville Centre told The Post near the altar of St. Agnes Cathedral. “New York Knicks, 2026, we’re so grateful to you,” he said, “For the wonderful way you’ve turned Madison Square Garden again to just a magical place, and brought so many New Yorkers together.”
Okay. Enough. I think maybe this guy's been tipping into the altar wine a little too often. God wants the Knicks to win. I get it. Sure makes me want to go back to the church of my youth...
