SXSW ’10: Get your dance on, great songs optional

The trends that emerged from the SXSW Music Conference in Austin last week are still bubbling to the top as I make sense of the hundreds of songs that filled the city for four days, but one thing I definitely noticed is that popular music may soon have a lot more emphasis on flexibility.

Between the Lines

I was a little surprised this week when I saw that media sessions were being set up with Patriots players who are participating in the voluntary offseason workouts down in Gillette Stadium.

Iverson hits the open market

Now paging Ed Stefanski. There are sure to be a few calls from area fans to the Sixers general manager, as Allen Iverson officially becomes a free agent.

The former MVP cleared waivers Thursday and is looking for a new home. Iverson was waived Tuesday by the Memphis Grizzlies and no one claimed him within 48 hours.

Iverson was unhappy coming off the bench in three games with Memphis, something he also complained openly about last season as a member of the Detroit Pistons.

The Knicks are reportedly interested in Iverson.

“There’s a lot of organizational stuff we’ll talk about and see if it makes sense,” Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni said.
