Top Ten Reasons Why Michael Jordan's 23 Should Be Retired
2009-11-17 12:00:00 If there's one thing I don't understand about professional sports, it's the reluctance to pay homage to those who were true legends of the game. Case in point, Michael Jeffery Jordan. Just this past weekend, LeBron James revealed plans to change his number because he felt that nobody should ever be able to wear Jordan's number. What followed has been a spirited debate that leaves no middle ground. I'm no different and that's why I felt compelled to give you the Top Ten Reasons Why Michael Jordan's 23 Should Be Retired....

Alas, Michael Jordan reveals his dark side
2009-09-12 18:41:00 Michael Jordan has enjoyed a larger than life existence around these parts for the better part of 25 years. In my opinion, he was and still is the greatest basketball player to ever play the game. He lifted the sport to new heights and brought years of excitement to Chicago. And because of that, he could do no wrong. Some of us in the media knew otherwise but found ourselves between a rock and a hard place. Basketball fans didn't want to know what they didn't know about MJ. They didn't want to hear anything that would diminish their perception of the legendary figure. When I related some of the stuff I knew and had heard from legitimate sources about MJ to ex-Cub Billy Williams,...

LA CASA DE MICHAEL JORDAN
2008-02-25 23:03:00 Me encanta usar Google Earth. Pues bien, el otro dÃa me di cuenta que existe una página llamada "avistadegoogle", os la recomiendo.Pongo un ejemplo, logicamente relacionado con Basket, de las curiosidades que allà se pueden ver. En este caso es la casa de Mr. Air Jordan, casi nada. Pongo textualmente lo que en esta pagina pone al respecto:"La casa de Michael Jordan se encuentra en el estado de Illinois, muy cerca del lago Michigan , al norte de Chicago.La mansión es impresionante, pero lo que me llama la atención es que se puede ver una pista de tenis, pero no de baloncesto.Por lo que se, el ala derecha es un enorme pabellón de gimnasia, donde a lo mejor tiene una cancha cubierta.También es verdad que el vecino de la izquierda tiene media pista de baloncesto para echarse unas canastas con el famoso jugador."Visto en "A vista de google"

En la genialidad no hay modestia

Me parece una señal de aceptación de su destino, de comprensión de su grandeza. Es esa chulería que suelen detestar los mediocres por que ven en ella reflejada su propia incapacidad para empatar con nadie. Y lo digo yo, que la única partida que aún no he perdido es la de nacimiento, y por que la tiene guardada mi madre. A lo que voy. La envidia es el verdadero fracaso. Sólo en el espíritu de superación está la victoria. Probablemente Bobby Fischer hubiese empatado con Dios de haber jugado con blancas. El problema es que todos nacemos con negras.
