Iverson Explains Choosing Basketball Over Football

92%ers, welcome to another episode of New Heights brought to you by WhatsApp! 

On today’s episode, we are joined by the NBA Hall-of-Famer, Allen Iverson 

But first, we’ve got a little new news because Travis and Jason are officially in the theme park business. Get all the details behind Travis’ decision to join up with Six Flags, what the ideal Kelce Coaster would look like, and why there might be wild otters running loose at Cedar Point very soon. 

We also recap everything from week 7 in the NFL including the Chiefs blowout win over the Raiders, Travis’ thoughts on the Chiefs offense with Rashee Rice back in the lineup, and what Jason needs to order at 1587 next week. 

We also break down the Eagles win over the Vikings, get Jason’s thoughts on Brandon Graham’s return to the Eagles, how close he might be to putting the pads back on, reaction to the wild finish in Denver, and why we’re at war with time zones. 

Later we are joined by an incredible guest for a very special stamp of the week so he can explain why he has a pin up tattoo of Jake on his leg. 

Finally we’ve got NBA legend Allen Iverson! We get his thoughts on his new documentary, how close he came to choosing football over basketball, what he really thinks about Philly fans, the origin of his signature arm sleeve, how he feels about seeing other players do the “step over,” and why he’s still star struck by Michael Jordan.
