Iverson Retires . . . Wait, Didn't That Already Happen?

Allen Iverson is officially retiring from the NBA which means its time to play . . . 

Things The Rest Of Us Knew That Allen Iverson Didn't!  Choose the correct answer!

A) PRACTICE makes perfect.

B) Being able to live comfortably after sports is more important than having a 40-person entourage.

C) Iverson stopped playing in 2010 . . . Which means he's been retired for a while now whether he likes it or not.

Vick Named Eagles Starting QB . . . Duh!!

All eyes are on Michael Vick . . . Again.  It comes as no surprise to me that Chip Kelly gave Vick the nod as the Eagles starting QB for the season.  Would I let him dog sit for me?  Hell no.  Would I like to watch him play football?  Absolutely.  Did I want to have Mike Tyson over to dinner after he bit off Evander's ear?  Not really.  But he was exciting- just like Mike Vick.  Vick is still a great player and deserves his starting job.  Which is something that we can't say for A-Rod.
