as now an honored guess they gave allen iverson the privelge to drop the ball at the game. his fans, coach, and teammates welcomed him with hugs and applause. everyone was happy to see him, but it was disappointing not being able to see him play and return to his former glory. even though age is giving in to allen iverson he has not retired. he said and i quote, "im not using that word (retired). i want toplay basketball so bad. the way it is right now, i have accepted the fact that the nba may not happen, but i still want to play basketball." this show that after falling out the nba he is still eager to play the game and said so in an interview with lisa salters.
Allen Iverson surprises philadelphia, presents sixers game ball before game ball before game 6 , wasnt just a shock to just to me, but to his other fans, his former teammates and his coach as well. this wasnt saw coming and it was happy moment. it brung back the memories of allen iversons NBA years. seeing his team and hearing his fans still cheer for him must have really touched him. he cried or teared walking to the sidelines. this was an upset. i must say AI appearance really motivated the sixers after all they did win the game. Go SIXERS!
as a younger kid i love allen iverson. he was my favorite person on the 76sixers. he got all of the props, he was a superstart. i used to place bets on the sixers against other teams with my grandfather. the bet was that if the sixers won the game he owed me 5dollars but if they lost i owed him nothing. i always depended on ai's three pointers and they never failed. because of him i won the bets with my grandfather. to be honest im not really a basketball guy but the one name that i can remember is allen iverson (AI)

do talk to strangers (this i believe)
i have recently listened to an podcast on a girl explaining what she has been thought as a kid. she said she a been thought simple things like eat your vegetables,keep your finger out your nose, and dont talk to strangers.
sabrina dubik, podcaster speaker said i believe that you should talk to strangers. by engaging a friendly unexpected conversation our lives can be effected my ways that are extrodinary. i agree with sabrina because before you meet any person in your life they are considered strangers because technically you dont know them.
when parents tell their kids not to talk to strangers that rule is always being broken. if it wasnt, children wouldnt have friends or communicate with the people in their everyday surrounding like school or work. if they werent talking to people and creating and building new friendships then their parents will think they have a social problem.
this dont talk to strangers rule has connotations that are confussing and can be hard to interpret for some people. is talking to strangers a good thing or a bad thing. i for one think its a good thing.

Broadcasting....whiteness
i think that there are not many shows on network television with diverse cast because like it is not that white people are better than blacks, its because white people are more committed to getting their education and pursuing a career. we blacks are capable of doing that to but we aren't as fortunate as them finacially wise.
i dont agree with the aurthor that television is not diverse enough. a lot of the times we dont take the ignitiative to go for a big dream. a lot of us do have the skill and talent to be on television but we settle for less. once we take a wrong turn somewhere in our lives such as doing drugs and getting arrested its hard to find a career. our lives have been set back. after going to jail your life is basically set to fail because o wants to hire peple who has attended jail.
i think that the director doesnt have a responsiblity to make tv more diverse. thats not what they teach them in school. they are taught to direct, thats it.
i personally never had an experience where i have watch some thing and it was rascist. i stick to cartoons but thats not saying people dont say and do rascist stuff.

New Fashion Wrinkle: stylish the gun
This article of the New York Times is mostly about a clothing company called woolrich is creating pants perfect for carrying guns. they are called the chino pants. chino pants are flexible and has an additional pocket behind the traditional front pocket for a weapon. i think creating jeans specifically for guns provoke more violence and so does having concealed weapons. you see what happened to trayvon martin. " the guy thought he was concealing a weapon, and shot him. turns out he didnt even have poccession of any weapon."
by creating clothing for carrying guns, it allows the buyers to contain more rugged gear, said shawn thompson blog. thompson has brought two shirts from the woolrich elite conceal carry line. that has allowed him to carry guns that are more equipped than small armed hand helds. the law is that you can carry and conceal hand held guns. now people are taking it out of proportion.
i think these rules are all dumb. if the government really want to reduce the crime levels that should banned gun from the citizens. they should make me things more strick and enforced the laws better. the only people who should have pocession of gun are cops, armies, swat and the secret services. most of the crime that has happened in the U.S is from people being able to buy guns in the first place. even without a liscence people still have guns. there is no way that cops can check for a liscence for guns if they are concealed.
