My son and his wife had a baby boy!!! He's my 1st Grandchild and i'm ecstatic. Nothing is more important than family and i'm so happy to see my family grow. Now I have to get to work on making him a Knicks fan. LOL.
Advice, don't sell it. Let it happan. Kids rebel and if you go full "Nixluva" on him he'll turn to the dark side and root for Nets. LOL!
Congrats man!!! Best wishes for a healthy child!!!!!

Not just a Knicks fan, a WCS fan too!
Congratulations- grandchildren are really special- haven't had any myself, but seeing my dad with his grandchild was great to experience- he absolutely adored her

Congrats to Nixluva, and I second Nalod's advice...
...push too hard- they might push back.
Let him come over to you...
but be sure to teach him how to shoot a J from the start because you want him to be a complete player.
It's funny but I was talking to my son and saying this draft pick is likely to be the 1st Knicks player his son would grow up knowing. In any event it's just really nice to see his little face and see mine in there as well. I can't wait to play a little Nerf Ball with him.

Grats pops! Good luck with the indoctrination. Hopefully by the time he's 6ish the Knicks will have something for us to watch pridefully. My youngest son became a Wizzy fan because the Knicks just weren't watchable.
Congratulations Nixy! Don't abuse the poor kid with Knicks fandom, he has his whole life ahead of him!

Congrats...hopefully he will see a Knick Championship!

I'm told this is the number 1 reason for NYC kids who file to become emancipated minors.
Congrats nixluva! Don't push it on him, Grandpa. Simply continue to display the blue and orange love and let him be easily assimilated.
congrats nix, hopefully phil and fisher are gone by the time he starts talking, you dont want him to start cursing at a young age
Congratulations...I know in his crib you'll probably be putting up triangle shapes!

They named him Liam. I'm hoping he's the 1st of many. I've got 3 children. A daughter and 2 sons. I was successful in getting my kids to love the Knicks, so I think we can all get the grandkids into the swing of things. I'm not a pushy parent. I was allowed to explore varied interests and my parents fully supported me, so I just did the same thing with my Children. I was blessed with 3 great kids that didn't give me any problems. I hope we remain so fortunate with all our future children.
