<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Knicks owner James Dolan has sent his lawyers after the new Web site selltheknicks.com for peddling derogatory T-shirts with his likeness, including one with Dolan pictured in a dunce cap, The Post has learned.
According to sources, Cablevision attorney Ashima Dayal dispatched an e-mail to cafepress.com, which manufactures, distributes and handles the shirt sales for the fledging anti-Dolan Web site, whose birth was first reported in the Post's Rumble section 10 days ago.
The e-mail from Dolan's lawyer said, in part, the Dolan T-shirts, which sell for $19.99, "infringes upon their intellectual property rights." In accordance with the notice, the manufacturer has temporarily taken the T-shirts off the site.
The founders of selltheknicks.com are trying to convince the manufacturer that all the T-shirts need not be banned.</div>

I don't see how Dolan can shut down this site. SelltheKnicks.com has the right to express their displeasure. I don't think they are breaking any laws and if they are not, I don't see the problem. Hopefully this motivates Dolan to turn things around
