Things not going well in Philly. (off topic, NBA)

In the City of Brotherly Love, which is prepping itself for the theatrical release of "Rocky Balboa", not much else is going well in the world of sports.

Neither the Flyers, nor the NBA Sixers have won in the month of December. While the Flyers have lost seven games in a row, the Sixers skid has reached 11 games. And to add insult to injury, their star player Allen Iverson has been traded to Denver for a couple of role players and draft picks. Don't ask me to analyse that trade because I don't pay attention to the NBA. However, I do know AI's aversion to practice, and here's the infamous press conference where he defends his decision to sit out of practice.
"How the hell can I make my teammates better by practice?"

Classic.

At the very least, the Flyers still have their Captain. Oh wait.... Foppa has concussion issues.

Yikes.


My inside sources tell me that Denver Nuggets head coach George Karl requires his players to show up for practice.
