NBA Inside Stuff Review - The Truth About Allen Iverson
Volume Eight, Issue One - Iverson, A Pistol Pete Rewind, and only a single decent ad.
This is an uninspired newsletter, and for that I apologize. This issue of Inside Stuff was really light on ads, most of which I’ve already highlighted in recent newsletters. So, since ads are arguably the best part, this issue felt a little lifeless. Also, life has been hectic lately, so I don’t have as much time to dedicate to these as I would like. I’ll see how the next week or so shakes out, but I might switch this newsletter to bi-weekly for the summer. Stay tuned.
To the inside stuff!

I don’t know about you, but back in 1999, I was always confusing Jim McIlvaine for Bart Simpson.
Hilarious.
Five myths about Allen Iverson according to Inside Stuff:

Best Ads
Great Sprite ad here!
The Feed
Tony Delk with this month’s tasty dish! Here’s an idea: reading the words ‘dish’ and ‘feed’ more often than not makes people think of food, right? The folks behind Inside Stuff should have included a fun recipe with each edition of the Feed that plays off the name of the highlighted player. Something like, ‘Strawberry Delk-shake.’
This idea is a work in progress.
The JAM
Welcome to the Jam, Kendall Gill! Maybe they could include the player’s favorite flavor of jam here?
