THE OLD UNIFORMS ARE BACK!!!

No, it's not what your thinking - we're not going back to the early 90's era Shawn Bradley classics. But according to the reputable news organization Sixers4Guidos.com next year we're going back to the '82 - '83 classic throwback jams PERMANENTLY.

Apparently Jeff Ruland went into Mitchell and Ness to buy an authentic Lenard Copeland throwback and saw that the '82 jerseys were flying off the shelves faster than Obama watches on Chelten Ave on Inauguration Day. And then he realized that Sammy D averages like 26 rebounds a game when he's wearing the throwbacks. So he and his homie Moses Malone went up to Brian Roberts' office and told him that if he switched the jerseys back they would personally affix a David Cohen bobblehead to the roof of the Comcast Center right next to the Billy Penn statue. And so Roberts called up the Sixers personally couturiers office at 15th and Lehigh and told them to make it happen, but since they were backlogged with orders for Sammy D's Team Canada uniform they said they could do it but that Royal Ivey would have to share Donyell Marshall's jersey and apparently Ivey has it written into his contract that he doesn't share jerseys. So Roberts figured the change could wait until next year.

Not coincidentally the day this news broke Sammy D had 10 points, 17 boards and 3 blocks tonight and the Sixies went to .500 for the first time in forever.

  7. I guess the DR is ignoring the fact that TO got a reality show? I think he might be the first professional athlete to come out.
