Don’t be alarmed by the bright light in the skies over Philadelphia. It’s only a rare astronomical phenomenon, a Harmonic Knucklehead Convergence. Terrell Owens and Allen Iverson, both in one psychotically fanatic city.

TO and AI: newest Eagle and 76ers centerpieces. Kindred souls, controversy magnets, deserving of 24/7 attention for every possible reason, good and bad.

Can two lightning rods of that magnitude co-exist in one market? Especially with both working at the maximum right now, even before Owens arrived in town? It’s impossible to keep up with the twists and turns of Owens’ attempts to liberate himself from the 49ers and hand-pick his new employers, and to keep pace with the barbs flying between Iverson and his coach-for-now, Chris Ford.

Their combined electricity might black out all of Philly and the surrounding counties.
