Things That Have Existed Longer Than The Sixers Rebuild

With a void of actual basketball to talk about, many writers have relied on their favorite crutch in recent weeks -- mocking the 76ers and their rebuild. Without starting digital warfare naming any names, a non-minute portion of hoops media has continued questioning the long-term merits of the Sixers rebuilding plan. "Sam Hinkie is throwing away another season, WHAT AN IDIOT," and the like. The prospect of facing another season of bad basketball is scary to a lot of people, including the raving lunatics scribes you read here on a daily basis.

And with that in mind, here's a list of things that have existed longer than the Sixers rebuild*, in no particular order.

• YOLO
• Chip Kelly: Eagles Head Coach
• Nintendo 3DS
• Pope Francis
• The Wizarding World of Harry Potter
• North West

• Edward Snowden's evasion of American law enforcement
• Carly Rae Jepsen
• The Hunger Games (movies)
• The Anthony Weiner saga
• Burger King as an American institution
• Dennis Rodman's tenure as unofficial U.S. ambassador to North Korea

I'm not a politician. Kim Jung Un & North Korean people are basketball fans. I love everyone. Period. End of story. #WORMinNorthKorea
