Agreed. Jordan will always remain one of the most important figures in sports history, because he heaved the marketability of athletes on another level. He did for sports what Star Wars did for movies.

If Donald Trump played the villain in A Few Good Men, it would be an 8 minute short film.

“People started running,” Scherr told the Sun. “I’ll be honest, I was waiting to hear a gunshot. I thought, ‘Here we go.’”

We are the envy of the world.

There was an extensive ESPN article a couple of months ago using all kinds of math and boatloads of statistics to make the point that LeBron had already matched MJ’s impact on his teams - and was accordingly projected to significantly surpass His Airness by the end of his career.

Truly a miracle of durability and athleticism.
