Another In A Long Line Of Pick Ups Past Their Prime


Dale Murphy, Art Monk, Dale Hawerchuk, Dikembe Mutombo, Lance Parrish, Mark Bavaro, Paul Coffey, and Jeff Hornacek....The list goes on and on.

While Philadelphia may not win titles, we sure do lead the world in picking up star players about a year or two past their primes.

We can now add Chris Webber to the list of former All Stars that flamed out in Philly. For those of you have missed it, Chris Webber and his bad knees are on their way out of town as the Sixers bought out his contract.

Bye, bye C Webb. I'm sure we'll see you providing quality bench depth this Spring for someone in the playoffs.

You're forgetting Derian Hatcher and Forsberg!

What's with the dig at Dale Murphy? You also forgot Vanbiesbrouck.

Good call, Muller.

Jorge...the Beezer was good for a season...remember the "I'm not a coat off the rack" comment from the Beezer?
