The Sixers have traded Kyle Korver to Utah for Gordon Giricek and a first round pick. I'm only sad to see Kyle go because he was my sister's favorite player but in the long run I think the Sixers will definitely benefit. Plus I think, Giricek's contract expires this year so we'll see. And more importantly the Sixers are 13-16 and only half a game out of the 8th playoff spot. I like to dream. The Phillies have not had a big trade but that's expected. Boston kept everyone and the Phillies don't have a lot of trade bait, well maybe Chase Utley but that's not going to happen.
Happy holidays and hopefully I'll post more frequently and not once a month.
Oh yeah, go Giants and Penn State (just because Texas A&M cheeerleaders are fucking stupid.)
March 5: Went to the Sixers/Pacers game in Philadelphia. Excited to see the game but way more excited to meet Andre Iguodala after the game. Forgetting the fact that Kyle Korver can play absolutely zero defense & lost the game for the Sixers, I was much more excited to get AI2 autograph. I thought it would be fast but instead I waited 3 hours in line & then in the seats. But it was absolutely worth it, just to see him & get his autograph. 2nd greatest day of my life. Pretty much forgot that the Sixers lost.
Neither picture is from the actual game but the first picture has to be one of the best pictures ever.

Since I've forgotten about this blog for like 9 months, I have a lot to catch up on. First off, one of the best days of my life:
1/13/06 - such a wonderful day. The day the Sixers & Celtics went into Triple Overtime in Phila. The game ended at 12:00 at night and my throat was sore from screaming. Nothing better than being around a whole bunch of Philadelphians that you can talk to like you've known them your whole life. As Mark Zumoff said: The Sixers and Celtics were extraordinary. Oh Yeah. Andre Iguodala = my Life. So my sister agreed to take me to any game I wanted as long as I paid for it. Of course I said yes. I went online and randomly picked a game. I picked the Sixers/Celtics game because it was the soonest. Not only did I not realize that it was Friday the 13th but going to the game in person is the greatest thing. Next time, I'll definitely get better seats. Hopefully next to Bibby with his spiffy suits or even Andre3000. More games to come. I'm definitely going to the season opener next season. The Sixers actually drafted players that play defense!%^&* How exciting but not more than watching the Sixers win in 3OT.
