MJ smoking on the way to the game in a Red Range with TWO TREY on the plates 
I can’t believe I actually believed my coaches when they said MJ goes to sleep at 9, and doesn’t smoke or drink
My whole childhood is ruined

I didn’t see it mentioned in here but the backstory on the “Be Like Mike” jingle is wild.
Apparently Gatorade was trying to get a Jungle Book song from Disney to use and couldn’t come to agreement on the money but Gatorade had already purchased the ad space. So an ad agency came up with the “Be Like Mike” jingle in like 15 minutes the day before the ad was set to air.....turns out it was the same crew who did the “I’m Lovin It” years later

Imagine a Bulls v. Rockets series. Probably would've happened if MJ didnt decide to be a weirdo.

My father is a mild-mannered, even keeled gentleman. The only two times I’ve seen him absolutely furious was during the Smith game and the 2 for 18

My thought is you must be Old enough to remember Dan play and that he must’ve carved up your Team on a couple of occasions or something...
If you think Dan deserves to never be mentioned ever, please stay out Of Scottsdale and Phoenix AZ
The man is a GOD there

I'm glad Mike admitted them Jordan 1's are terrible on the comfort side of the game.

I saw that game live on NBC, and the funniest part to me wasn’t he kept getting stripped/missing/choking, it was Marv’s commentary as it was happening, I still laugh my *** off everytime I hear it.

There were definitely woke black people in that era. You think MJ was thinking about other athletes?
Him remaining quiet had more to do with his pocketbook vs him thinking about the future.
It's been 30 years and he's had plenty of opportunities to speak out since then.
He has every right to be apolitical, but don't try to mask his disinterest as a sign of the times.
Hell, his teammate was Craig Hodges.

He’s definitely spoken out more over the past 5 yrs or so
He also opened up that hospital recently in NC for The underprivileged

Hear me out and take my opinion with a grain of salt because I am a 44 year old white man, but I think MJ realized a long time ago he was in a long game in terms of his power and influence.
He’s gotten more vocal politically as he’s amassed more wealth and power. Right or wrong, an actual billionaire and team owner speaking on something is going to have more about impact than just an athlete.
