He's Baack.... The Return of Isiah Thomas!

When the economy is poor, you can apparently count on two things:
1) An increase in sales at McDonald's
2) That someone will take a roll of the dice with Isiah Thomas!

Yes, that's right. Not even a poor economy can stop Isiah Thomas from getting a job! How the Isiah Thomas job market can withstand an economic tsunami is beyond all logic and comprehension.

This time, Isiah Thomas is going to Florida International to coach a college team.

For those who can't remember, I did a fictional Q&A with Isiah Thomas back in 2005 when he was starting to shape the Knicks into a complete disaster, where I chronicled Isiah's resume since he stopped being a player. For those who can't remember he has held the following positions:
1) GM of the Raptors - and failed miserably
2) President and Owner of the CBA - and the league folded within 18 months
3) Coach of the Pacers - and fired by Larry Bird
4) Coach and GM of the Knicks - and failed miserably.

Isiah has now been locked in a basement and forced to solve Sudoku puzzles for an entire season to make sure that he didn't get involved in any of the basketball operations. I just hope for Florida International's sake that they realize that Isiah ALWAYS leaves his mark on his job... and it ALWAYS smells like poo.
