Lou Williams' Injury Opens the Door For Iverson's Return to the Sixers
11/27/2009
I'm a recent graduate of Georgetown University starting the long and lonely road down a writing career. Wish me luck.
Things you should know about me:
1) I originally hail from Philadelphia. Yes, that explains why most of my subject matter (so far) has been Philadelphia sports teams... I write what I know, and I write about what's near and dear to me.
2) I spent the past four years in the Georgetown school band... meaning I spent a LOT of time watching Georgetown basketball (and terrible football, for that matter). I also got a free trip to the 2007 Final Four, and that Jeff Green "block" was a charge on Greg Oden (you know which one I'm talking about).
3) In order, my preference of sports: NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL. Throw tennis above hockey. I really don't care about hockey.
That's about it... I'll be writing about the 76ers religiously this year (with the Eagles sprinkled in on the side, as long as they don't keep losing to the Raiders), so I hope you enjoy. Comments are always welcome - I read every comment anyone leaves, and always do my best to respond!

Loved the light-hearted angle here, Bryan. ("Where's Derek Jeter? Where's supposed to go on a couples dinner..." Niiiiiiice.) I don't know what's a funnier concept, Bron...
