About James »

James comes from the... Ok let's cut the bull. I am a low to mid 20 something year old college student from the Illadelph enjoying and debating about Philly sports. I believe sports is like music in society, providing a reason for a person to be passionate about a common thing as other individuals. With that said I have some proclamations to make:

Randall Cunningham was my first sports hero so it took a few years for Donovan McNabb to win me over.

Allen Iverson was the greatest showman on the court due to his crossovers and his heart.

Andre Iguodala would not catch half the crap he's receiving if his initials were not AI. Then again he wouldn't catch the other half if he was more consistent.

The Phillies finally gave my generation a championship to celebrate, and for that I am thankful.

Oh and people I love the article read request and all but please can there be more conversation than read hustling on here?

The Shortlist »

Favorite Athletes

Randall Cunningham, Oscar Robertson, Julius Erving, Tiger Woods, Rafeal Nadal, Lewis Hamilton, Usain Bolt
Favorite Sports Teams

Eagles, Sixers, Phillies, Flyers. Got some love for the Raiders and Penguins.
Favorite Coaches
All Time Sports Moment

Iverson's play on Tyron Lue in the 2001 NBA Finals. Greatest crossover of all time.
Most Memorable Game Attended

Watching Mizzou come back miraculously against Kansas in 2006 at the Mizzou Arena.
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

Single game point total by individual (NBA)
Ruth or Mays?

Mays, Ruth, and Bonds. Why pick? That's an unstoppable outfield no doubt.
Unitas or Montana?

How about Manning in this conversation? Elway maybe? Even Brady?
Jordan or Russell?

Russell, 11 titles in 13 years, 5 MVPs, are you kidding me? Where's Vitale when you need him
Gretzky or Orr?

Super Mario
Pele or Maradona?

Pele hands down
Federer or Sampras?

Nadal
Tiger or Nicklaus?

Tiger. more career wins and hopefully will have more Majors wins
Petty or Earnhardt?

Petty, then Earnhardt. Daytona 500s are the tiebreaker if you ignore career wins.
Schumacher or Senna?

Schumacher. There is potential with Lewis Hamilton though.
Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

SEC and Big 12 (football), ACC and Big East (basketball)
