The thing with online petitions for things such as "ban Kendall Jenner from Sixers games!" is, and hear me out here... they're dumb.
Very dumb.
Anyone with a keyboard can start an online petition for anything they wish in the hopes that some stupid sports blogger will write about it.
The original flimsy idea got started after Kendall sat courtside for the Sixers' awful loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night.
You know what is also dumb but on a tiny, tiny bit smaller scale? A petition against the petition.
And that's where we are today as an intrepid Sixer fan has started a petition with the stated goal of: Kendall Jenner SHOULD COME TO EVERY SIXERS GAME from now on.
Philadelphia 76ers

This latest petition that is PRO KENDALL seems to believe the Sixers are 9-4 since Ben and Ms. Jenner got back together earlier this month, so that's a positive thing! The new petition writer also seems to believe a mega-star like Kendall can be good for Philadelphia.
The self-described "concerned citizen" writes, "Further, Kendall and Ben went out for a meal at Parc in Rittenhouse the next day. Given more time in our city, she'll soon be spotted at Dalessandro's mowing down on a steak or Reading Terminal Market crushing a roast pork sandwich at DiNic's (w/ sharp prov). Are we really prepared to give that up based on such a small sample size?"
I don't really know what that means but it sounds logical enough for me to sign.
Plus, no need to blame Kendall for Friday's loss to Cleveland because Ben said it was the Thanksgiving feast that had the Sixers sleeping the next day. That's something all Philadelphians can relate to.
