JEREMY LIN IN THE LOCKER ROOM - PHOTO BY SUZANNE JOE KAI
I spent the day today watching a Knicks game. This time it wasn't on a television screen from California but up close, live and in person at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
I was on the court, literally, at today's pre-game practice, behind the scenes embedded with veteran sports reporters, at the pre and post game press conference with the coach, and yes - in the locker room with Jeremy Lin.
Stay tuned soon for our feature on Jeremy Lin, Mr. Linsanity himself. Meanwhile, we have posted a few photographs from today.
The greatest thing about Linsanity is that Jeremy Lin can win, he can lose, but he has already achieved the near impossible.
In just a few short weeks, he's turned a country on its head and made it examine how Asian Americans are viewed in the mainstream.
As we watched him in person today, we saw a very talented 23 year old basketball player with a great career ahead of him.
We also thought of the historical milestone he has already achieved - for all of us.

The top three finishers at the national figure skating championships have always been, barring injury, the skaters named to the US Olympic team. But not this year.
Mirai Nagasu, a 20-year-old skater who finished fourth at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, took third place at the nationals competition this weekend. The only top finisher with Olympic experience, she was also the only figure skater not to fall or make a major error.
But when the American women's team was announced Sunday, 22-year-old Ashley Wagner, who placed fourth, took the third Olympic spot. Nagasu was named as an alternate.
The switch seems unprecedented - click here to the story by Gabrielle Bluestone on GAWKER.com
