    February 3rd, 2012 | Sports | Dan | Comments Off

    As a diehard Orlando Magic fan, it’s hurts to say that Dwight Howard won’t be returning next year.  The big man is the face of our franchise and has been the most dominant center in the league for the past five years.  Unfortunately, his continued poor attitude and the Magic’s recent free fall have all but secured [...]
