07.02.08 ANTI-MCKIE FLYERS NOT AT ALL RACE-RELATED
A few residents of the upscale Philly suburb of Gladwyne don't like the idea of the criminal element moving into their collection of overpriced McMansions. That is, they could probably deal with it, so long as it's not one of them uppity wealthy blacks with a minor gun charge. Tough luck for Philly native Aaron McKie, the former NBA player who is having a mansion built in the neighborhood and has become the subject of ominous fliers strewn about the area.
It read: "Attention please, read if you care about your neighborhood!!! How can we prevent Aaron McKie from moving into our safe and peaceful neighborhood. His house is almost complete on Youngsford Road. Let's prevent another Iverson from moving in!"
I'm no cryptographer, but reads like a little racial coding to me. Being a layperson on such matters, I turned to noted race expert Dr. Raindelay Atwater of the University of Imadeitup to interpret it for me.
Dr. Atwater:
"That some racist shit."
Well, there you go.

We're talking about Property Taxes.
Next up: Ollie Williams with the Blaccuweather forecast.
This isn't racist. They're still upset because Iverson had a big mouth bass mailbox.
damn negroes!!! why cant they stay in their part of town?
McKie's of two minds on this. He hates being the victim of racism, but then where else will he ever be compared to Iverson?
They'll take our jaaaaaaarrbbbbbs!
Gladwyne has a Welcome Wagon, and they would like to drag Mr. McKie behind it.
Bonus points to AM if he got his gun from Bo Diddley and he traded *the* sports watch of the 80's for it.
After a friendly game of street basketball, Iverson instructed the neighborhood youth on the mechanics of 'supermanning a ho.' Youngsford Road was never the same.
they should consider dressing up in white sheets as ghosts to scare the Mckies away. Or burning a big lowercase t in the front of their lawn to mean take off!!!
or time to leave town!!
Yeah…it's much better to have Andy Reid's gun toting, pill-popping maniacal kids living in the neighborhood.
…and it was all because of this awful Negro
I guess that's why athletes all move to Atlanta, that would NEVER happen here.
Since its a day late and nobody will ever read this, I'll just say that Aaron was my favorite Sixer of the past 20 years. He hustled and made big shots during the 2000 run. And hes under 40 and rocks a beard like I do, so that makes him awesome……
