You are "Bad" - Michael Jackson's great song. You like leather jackets, super tight trousers and you are absolutely gorgeous! You like to stand out. You have this super attractive sharp look. People adore you and are crazy about you. You like it, but at the same time you seem not to notice it or believe it. You are in fact a bit shy inside, though on the outside you are rather self assured.
By the early 1960s, the NBA's Nationals were struggling. Syracuse was the last of the medium-sized cities, but it was too small for a professional team to be profitable. Paper magnate Irv Kosloff bought the Nationals from Danny Biasone and moved them to Philadelphia in 1963. The NBA thus returned to Philadelphia one year after the Warriors had left for San Francisco. A contest was held to decide on their new name and the winner was the late Walt Stahlberg. Their name was changed to the "76ers", after 1776, the year the Declaration of Independence was signed in Philadelphia. The nickname was quickly shortened to "Sixers" by headline writers, and the two names soon became interchangeable for marketing purposes.
