Come On! Philly Had Rocky!


I saw the headline talking about one city's 100 year title drought and thought, "Another damn Cubs story?! Rub it in our face some more!". I clicked on it and was delighted to find that they wern't talking about the Cubs...but about the city of Philadelphia (Apparently, the 100 years come from adding up all the professional teams seasons since 1983--so I suppose it works).
Anyhow Bryan Armen Graham goes on to list the 100 worst moments in Philadelphia sports since the Sixers won the NBA Finals in 1983. It's an alright read (unless you're a fan of the Sixers, Phillies, Flyers, or Eagles).

Philly's Title Drought Turns 100

Let's Just Assume the Pistons Were Just Bored




The picture to the left is a member of the Philadelphia 76ers Dance Team. In all fairness, she probably could've played for the Sixers last night and it would've probably been more of a pleasent game to watch. After getting a slight scare in the first three games, the Pistons flipped the switch and took care of business defeating the Sixers in six games, winning the game 100-77.

Here's what I'm wondering: How much money did Andre Iguodala lose because of his awful performance in this series? 10 million? 15 million? More?
Also, the Pistons get a crack at Orlando in a few days. Last season Lebron had a coming out against Detroit in the playoffs. Dwight Howard anyone?
