The New Hero

The most popular professional athlete in Philadelphia was on the court at the 76ers game last night.
And it wasn't Iverson. This is a very good article by Bob Ford about the Old Greats of Philly might be disappearing. Iverson is growing old and the Sixers still haven't found the winning formula for him. McNabb just had a career changing injury and when he comes back he probably won't be the same. But the Phillies appear to be past the stage and already turning the new page into a new era with Ryan Howard. Howard appears to now be the most popular current athlete in Philadelphia, which I would agree with.
