Will Allen Iverson accept to play Indoor Soccer ?


Allen Iverson, a NBA legend is in the middle of a considerable financial fiasco as he was ordered by the judge to pay $859,896.46 for stifling Aydin & Company Jewelers on a $375,000 bill. This means that he needs to get his NBA job back to pay such a huge amount. He has tried to contact various NBA teams with no apparent result, there has been a talk about Puerto Rican basketball league is trying to woo him in. With the scoring average of 26.7 per game for a regular season and 29.7 points for playoff second only to Michael Jordon and All star MVP award in 2001 and 2005, they see him to be a potential ticket seller.

In the cloud of all these drama, Iverson has got a weird contract call from Rochester Lancers a indoor soccer club, willing to pay $20000 per match and $5000 per goal they score in a match and also expressed willingness to host his friends and family !!!!.

"Allen Iverson is one of the premier athletes of our time," said Rich Randall, Vice President of the Rochester Lancers. "With his athleticism and competitive hunger, I think he can be a great fit with our team and fans as we make an important playoff push, while also driving interest to an exciting, growing sport."

This offer could be a move to exploit the name and circumstance of Iverson to publicize the game rather than a move to appraise his athletic ability. Will Allen Iverson accept the offer? !!!
