HEEEE'S BAAAAACK

Ok, people... can someone pass me the tissue please, *smh*??? Just a minute ago, 34 year old Allen Iverson retired from the NBA (last week). I just told yall I think he only did it because he did not want to be playing in Memphis, with the Grizzlies, although, he said he did it for his family, not for the money and he felt like he still had a lot left in him. Mind you, since AI left the Philadelphia 76er's, um, like 4 years ago, it seems as though he has been demoted ever since. He played in Denver for 2 seasons, then in Detroit and now Memphis, where he drew the line and basically said "i want out"
Well as of Thursday, Allen Iverson has resigned with the Philadelphia 76er's and to be honest the Sixers has nothing to lose. Iverson was boo hooing at the press conference from beginning to end. Dont get me wrong... I like AI and actually became a fan of his once MJ23 retired, but come on... AI wins, he did not want to retire, he just wanted to be on another team, so he retired to get what he wanted.
Here are a few of his quotes from his press conference:
• "I have fans all over the world ... I appreciate them in Memphis, Detroit, Denver, but the relationship I have with these fans [in Philadelphia] is like no other."

• "People here watched me grow as a basketball player. They came in and cheered for me night in and night out, gave me everything that they had. That's why it was easy to give them everything I had."

• "This is one of the realest places in the world. They're passionate about their sports and I gave them everything I had and that's why they responded to me they way they did."

To be honest I have mixed emotions about all this, but who cares what i really think, right?

RAVENS STEELS ONE!

Sunday the Baltimore Ravens stole a win 20-17 in overtime over the Pittsburgh Steelers! Steelers backup QB,Dixon filled in while Ben Roethlisberger sat out per doctors order due to a concession. Although teammates statements somewhat questions Roethlisberger ability to play... (hold please)
Hines Ward statement:"This game [Sunday's against Baltimore] is almost like a playoff game," Ward told NBC's Bob Costas. "It's almost a 'must' win. So, I can see some players or some teammates kind of questioning like, 'Well, it's just a concussion. I've played with concussions before. I would go out there and play.' So, it's almost like a 50-50 toss-up in the locker room ... I've been out there dinged up. The following week, [I] got right back out there."
I think Ward may have been a bit bitter because of the loss, there is a huge possibility that had Ben played they may have won. Roethlisberger is expected to play next week.
The Ravens will meet the Steelers again in week 16.
