A word to all young people out there, years of hard living will eventually catch up to you. You cannot be young forever. Allen Iverson is finding that out right now. His body looks beat up and his play is faltering and now people close to him are saying he needs some serious help.
Iverson’s wife, Tawanna has been separated from him for eight months and recently filed for divorce. He has indulged himself into drinking and gambling to overcome his guilt. This is not the Iverson that we all saw at Georgetown University with John Thompson II.
Thompson II coached the Georgetown University basketball team for 27 years. Near the end of his tenure, Ann Iverson begged Thompson almost in tears to take a chance on her son.
