Laugh Track: Ownership Change?

Actor Tracy Morgan appeared on ABC’s "Jimmy Kimmel Live" last night where he talked about the "fiasco going on in New York" with the Knicks. Morgan said, "Did you see when the security guard pushed (Charles Oakley)? You don't push Oakley. Everybody knows he throw punches in bunches." Morgan said "you don’t push" Basketball HOFer Karl Malone either. Morgan: "Oakley will beat you up but Karl Malone will beat you up and then shoot you." Morgan added, "I think I'm going to buy the team from (Knicks Owner James Dolan)." Host Jimmy Kimmel: "That would be amazing. Do you have that much money that you could buy the New York Knicks?" Morgan said referring to his auto accident when he was rear-ended by a Wal-Mart truck and seriously injured, "You act like I got hit by Bob's Discount Furniture truck" (“Jimmy Kimmel Live,” ABC, 2/13).
