Last week, in front of hundreds of over-excited children, the Sixers unveiled their new mascot, Franklin the dog. Amid the onslaught of media coverage in a dead zone on the Philly sports calendar, I wondered one thing - what the Phanatic, the greatest mascot in sports (sorry San Diego Chicken), thought of his new colleague.
