Your very own Flip witnessed the triumphant - and touching - return of AI to Philadelphia last night. The crowd was awesome and gave a long and loud standing O when he was announced. (Of course, they booed the rest of the Nuggets players, but that's not what this post is about.)Yes, I must admit that I got a little misty. The outpouring of admiration and affection from both the Philly fans and Iverson was awesome. And he was announced right after the national anthem, which always gets me a little choked up. So, it was a recipe for some tears.
Anyway, I'm glad I was there to see it, even if I was in the absolute last row in the place.
(Look at the shout out on his feet.)
