The 6th annual Philadelphia Sports Fans Choice Awards Show showcased the 2006-2007 sports season. Sports legends, team accomplishments and memorable moments from this year's Philadelphia's sports scene were highlighted.
We recognized and honored those athletes who have gone above and beyond the call of duty by giving back to the community and causes close to their hearts. These athletes who are strong role models to our children, and who give unselfishly of themselves to those in need, received The Hometown Hero Award. This year's recipients included; from the Flyers: Mike Knuble and RJ Umberger, from the Phillies; Jimmy Rollins, from the 76ers Andre Iguodala, and from the Soul; Matt Bernstein.

This year's 2007 Rising Star Award went to Mike Richards of the Flyers. And MVP honors went to Phillies player Jimmy Rollins.

Former Eagles Coach Buddy Ryan was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award for his dedication and commitment to his teams and players throughout his career.

And Soul’s head coach Bret Munsey was honored with this year’s ‘Commitment to Excellence’ Award for his outstanding efforts behind the bench.

Stand up comedy by Tim Walkoe rounded out the evening. And all the net proceeds from the evening’s silent auction will once again benefit the PAL Foundation.

You can catch all the Red Carpet action on Comcast SportsNet - Dec 29, at 4:30pm and again on Dec 30, at 1pm .
