Well, things didn’t go quite as planned for AI in his reunion with the Seventy-Sixers last night.
Not only did his brand-new Denver Nuggets lose a home game to the lowly Seventy-Sixers, but AI turned the ball over a lot, pretty much played like “not good”, and then got himself ejected in the fourth quarter.
The best facet of the game for him was definitely his pregame anti-Seventy-Sixers rant, which was like a bunch of machine-guns going rat-a-tat-tat all over his former GM Billy King and ex-coach, Coach Mo.
“Things still linger and I still feel bitter about the way things happened,” Iverson said. “It didn’t have to happen like that and I think I deserved a lot more respect than I got. These people had the chance to give me the respect I deserve and they weren’t willing to do that. So why should I try to give any respect back?”
“I don’t feel I have a need to,” he said. “Honestly, just to be truthful with you, it’s something that I don’t want to do. For what? For what?
“I don’t have any beef with him, but I don’t feel it’s necessary for me to go out of my way to go speak to anybody or act fake with anybody.”
We dunno, Allen – that sure sounds like beef to us. We didn’t used to know all about beef, but we’ve spent the intervening 1.25 years studying up, and what you’ve got is definitely beef.
More important than that is how the hell we remembered writing a post about misunderstanding the notion of beef all the way back in September 2005. Not only that, but we knew exactly what it was about – a search for “shaq beef” brought it right up.
This is all so crazy – Iverson getting ejected and having beef but thinking he doesn’t have beef, us remembering about beef, giggling at the word beef like a small child, etc, etc.
By the way, when we were home and hanging out with our nieces, we checked it out, and they totally didn’t giggle at the word beef. Strange that we’d test it, and then be confronted with that very issue right here this morning. Strange world we live in.

ERRONEOUS! ERRONEOUS ON BOTH COUNTS!
glad to have you bringing the crazy to me again.
Try it now – and stop using your sneaky lawyer tricks in here!
testes, testes, 1, 2, 3!!!!
now who’s the small child, bitch?
Why do you scold me, dear?
now where did the part about that being a sound legal argument go?
I do not like this, cavalier.
I never saw it. I think you might need a hug?
re: you giggling like a small child.
NOT re: you LIKING small children. perv.
yes indeed I do. come hither. although I am not an 8-year-old, dude. so sorry.
I want the hug to be comforting, apologetic, and exciting all at once, so I’m really, really going to think this through before execution.
Those are exactly the kinds of hugs that keep Mike Brown employed, he has mastered them
yaysports ’07 – now 98% sexier!!!
And taller than ever!
does tall still = black? or was that strictly a december thing. I confuse easily.
I hate the fact that my comments don’t work anymore
That was just December. Now tall = unrealistically charismatic and dynamic in all, or at least several, ways.
god i hate the spurs so much those whiny whores… nice work cavs
god i hate the spurs so much those whiny whores… nice work cavs
and why is it so hard for me to post… i keep getting an error on page with some yellow triangle exclamation point thing… i dont like it
ahh now im posting messages twice and it never said posted them… damn you yellow triangle exclmation point
whiny = Mark Cuban
i think tony refreshes the comments pages all day long until a message about the mavs or spurs is posted just to disagree…
or its just BDP…
^^This kid zack really doesn’t know the meaning of ironic. Someone explain it to him.
You obviously don’t know the meaning of the word ironic.
Tony Parker’s defense = weaker than Steve Nash
Well no wonder Allen doesn’t want to talk to Coach Mo’, if Coach doesn’t have any beef for him. That Mystery Steak of the Month club was the only thing they had in common; oh, the arguments smoothed over by a little grass-fed farm-fresh T-bone. Once the year-long gift certificate ran out, so did AI.
spurs lose again…. i love this game
