The Answer to true art

When Allen Iverson started wearing that arm band around his right arm a while back it was because he had some kind of problem with his elbow, or so I thought.

But a few days earlier a former college roommate of mine hinted to me that the arm band could actually just be a concealing device for some nasty tatoo Iverson has.

Sure enough after he said so I just had to find out more, and what can I say? Dude was right. A.I really does have some grim looking ink under that white cloth.

On Allen Iverson's right bicep he has a skeleton head, wearing a soldier's helmet. Further down he used to have a grim reapper, but now it's been made into a panther-dragon.

Either the league or the team made him cover-up. But doesn't Cherokee Parks have some crazy stuff like that too?

David Stern: Iverson you're not getting your trophy unless you get cleaned up.
Iverson: But it's not fair I earned it, and I promised mommy I'd bring it home.
David Stern: Fair or not, MVP or not, we have standards young man, now shoo, go on.

Chances are he won't be wearing that band forever, at least not all the time. Watch and notice the few moments when it comes off.
