Analyst's Comments Spark Backlash

New York Knicks analyst Monica McNutt admitted she was confused as to why Swift was present at Madison Square Garden, the Knicks' home court. McNutt later apologized, stating she was unaware that Swift is a Knicks fan, as she had not seen her at previous games.

"Swifties, I appreciate your passion, I said what I said. Here's the deal, if I'm wrong — I am wrong apparently because she's got an original Amar'e Stoudemire [Knicks] jersey," McNutt said.
