Gotta laugh at your insinuation of Iverson or someone like a Vick taking their sport to a new dimension. A.I.? Come on. Let's look at Julius Erving, Bobby Orr, Gretzky, and Jordan. Those are players who forced clubs to rethink how to play the game and structure a team. Those sports are played with five active players, goalie not included, in a true running clock game. I can't think of a player who could revolutionize a game such as football, except maybe Jim Brown. And, Iverson???? Give me a break. One dimensional street game. Entertaining, maybe. My kid thinks he's awesome. How many rings does he, or Vick have?

Mention Iverson, I think of his tats, his Mr T starter kit, then his scoring.
Mention Vick, I first think of him flipping off the home crowd on national TV. How to show them what a fine citizen he is.......
