Ralph Kramden, a NY NBA fan? (Part 18)

[Frank Gannucci]

(The NY Knicks beat the Indiana Pacers 85-75.)

(Ralph & Ed just got off the subway.)

Ralph: "What a game Norton."

Ed: "The Pacers thought that they were going to beat our Knicks in New York. They were wrong."

Ralph: "Oh, I can't wait to see the look on that Joe Fenstablau's face tomorrow. He was certain that the Knicks would lose."

Ed: "Hey, he is a poor, misguided soul. Joe Fenstablau."

Ralph: "And the Knicks are two games away from having the priviledge of playing right near that action city, Miami Beach."

(Audience cheers.)

Ed: "They would be playing the Heat."

Ralph: "Yeah, they would Norton. Boy, this is the greatest season the Knicks have had in 13 years. I can still remember being upset at seeing Pat Ewing's last great chance to get his only NBA ring just fly by."

(Ed blows his nose out of sadness.)

Ed: "He deserved a ring Ralph. He was the Knicks in the mid 80s and 90s."

Ralph: "Yeah. Also, I know that MecGarrity has got to be yelling. But, I will be ready for him."

Ed: "And he will hit you with water."

Ralph: "I will sidestep the water."

Ed: "You will sidestep the water. With the way you sidestep, it takes a long time."

Ralph: "When I get on the bus Norton, I will wish you were in FRONT of it."

(Jackie Gleason walks on stage. Audience applauds.)

Jackie: "Thank you. The Miami Beach audiences are the BEST! GOOD NIGHT!"

(Audience cheers.)
