I had a consulting gig for work recently and got to see some pretty amazing sports memorabilia at a certain large sports apparel company’s headquarters.  This covered the entire wall.

The presence of greatness

Bottom line:  I loved Jordan.  He made basketball look good.  He achieved a greatness we all aspire to yet never reach…it transcended sport even.  He was just fucking good….period.

That is the look of greatness

See that look on his face.  It says, “Go home.  I’ve already won.”


I think about that as I watched the Vice Presidential debates tonight.  Politicians just pander back and forth; you never really know if what they are saying is true.  They leave and go do whatever they were going to do in the first place, probably something that’s going to screw us and has exactly the opposite effect they claim it will have.

But Jordan….no need to talk.  No pandering.  The score speaks for itself.  RESULTS.  You can believe in that.  You know its real.  He just hit that shot over Craig Ehlo.  That…just…happened.

    Too bad Jordan has been such a LOSER with the Bobcats. You’d think that Jordan would try and use his celebrity status to promote the Bobcats. Both him and Bob Johnson are losers. Hopefully they sell the team to someone who cares. Sorry for the rant, but I enjoy reading your blog…
