Luckily, your enthusiasm need not go to waste: Take today's deal, and score a ticket to see the Sixers take on the Orlando Magic at the Wells Fargo Center on Tuesday, February 26. You'll also receive a concession voucher for a hot dog, popcorn, and soda -- along with access to a pre-game meet-and-greet with the Sixers' Dream Team and Flight Squad members.

A hard-hitting, heart-pounding new drama about football. Thirty years ago, a feared NFL defensive back, nicknamed “Assassin,” ended a receiver's career. Today, the former player seeks a meeting with the man he paralyzed, hoping for redemption. In his way is a young attorney and a secret that may destroy them both.
Starring Brian Anthony Wilson (from HBO's "The Wire") and Dwayne A. Thomas.
