Michael Jordan speaks about NBA lockout, gets fined $100,000
2011-09-12 23:46:00 The NBA fined Michael Jordan $100,000 today for comments he made last month about the lengthening lockout and Milwaukee Bucks Center Andrew Bogut. Damn, that’s a lot of scrilla for just speaking your mind. In an Aug. 19 interview with Australian newspaper The Herald Sun, the Charlotte Bobcats owner and Chicago Bulls legend spoke extensively...

A look at the Michael Jordan Steakhouse
2011-08-27 00:38:00 As mentioned before, I’m no foodie. I’m more of it’s either good or bad type of gal. That said, I went to the MJ steakhouse on Tuesday and it was bomb dot com. Full disclosure I’m friends with the VP of the hotel. That said, I doubt that if you visit the restaurant you’ll disagree... Read more »
LeBron Ain't Michael Jordan, But He Might Be...
2011-06-08 06:17:00 After Scottie Pippen cemented his head somewhere comfortably in his rear end and told the world that LeBron James is better than Michael Jordan, the whole world sat back and waited to see King James back up the praise. Well, on Tuesday night, LeBron achieved an incredible feat: an elusive triple-single. Eight (8) points. MJ never scored fewer than 22 in a Finals game, and didn't watch other guys toss brick after brick at the rim in a crucial fourth quarter. So let's all wipe twice and flush the LeBron-Jordan comparisons. But there is a Hall of Fame player that compares favorably to LeBron....
Michael Jordan/Walter Payton Highlight Video
2011-05-26 06:35:00 With the Bulls down 3-1, the Sox offense continuing to be bipolar, and Republicans just rehashing reality ignoring talking points, I find myself short on motivation to write anything of substance. So-speaking of rehashing, here is a Michael Jordan/Walter Payton Highlight Video I made 4 years ago. Be Good Friends,@koolking83P.S. Ed Schultz was spot on...although if I were a "slut", I'd resent being compared to Laura Ingraham ...
Chicago's Dwyane Wade Talks About Michael Jordan's Influence on H
2011-05-19 01:22:00 Not to offend fans of the Oklahoma City Thunder and Dallas Mavericks, but the Eastern Conference Finals is the REAL NBA Finals this year. The winner of the Chicago Bulls and Miami Heat series will likely win the title. Exactly like in 2007, when you knew the winner of the Western Conference Semifinals between the San Antonio Spurs and Phoenix Suns would go on to win the whole thing (And they did). The Bulls and Heat are two teams that cleared the deck and threw open the doors last summer for biggest free agency period in league history. They are the two teams in the Eastern Conference that improved themselves the most. At Bulls media day, I grew tired...

Kobe Bryant Surpasses Michael Jordan After Dominant Dallas Series
2011-05-09 04:58:00 DALLAS - Kobe Bryant finally did it. Moments after the Los Angeles Lakers' Game 4 loss to the Dallas Mavericks in the Western Conference Semifinals, Bryant met with the media. "I guess I can finally say I've passed Jordan...and what a feeling!" Bryant led the defending world champions to a four game sweep at the hands of the Mavericks. Fans sat in awe as one of the greatest players in the world surpassed Michael Jordan in a way that only he could...by leading his team to allow 49 3-point field goals in a Kobe is all smiles after surpassing Michael Jordan four game sweep. "We knew they were good from the outside," said Bryant. "But we just wanted to see how good...and...

Michael Jordan's Wishbone!
2011-02-24 19:04:00 Yeah, you read the headline right: Michael Jordan enjoys to grub down at Wishbone! How can you blame him? There's nothing better than a pile of runny eggs, a nice amount of savory piglet, cornbread, and a nice hot-toddy to wash it down!.(personally speaking of course) So, what was MJ himself doing here (multiple times this month according to my server)? I checked to see if the Bulls were playing the Bobcats that night...no go. Could it be that he enjoys Wishbone like the rest of the Chicago commoners? Does he truly walk amongst the ordinary people? (For some amazing soul food...hell yeah he does). I know it was just his birthday, and everyone cheered as him and No Tippin...
Top 23 Quotes About Michael Jordan
2011-02-17 09:42:00 I've spent the last few days trying to come up with a way to pay tribute to Michael Jordan on his 48th birthday.

Chicago Blackhawks To Honor Hull/Mikita At Michael Jordan's House....
2011-01-10 21:15:00 Yesterday the Chicago Blackhawks honored the 50th anniversary of the 1961 Stanley Cup Championship with a wonderful ceremony before the current defending champs took on the lowly New York Islanders. Eight representatives of Chicago's last team to hoist Lord Stanley's Cup (prior to last season) were introduced to the sellout crowd of 21,000+, each receiving a rousing ovation from the people in attendance. On top of each member receiving a framed 1961 championship replica banner of their own, it was announced that the United Center would get two more monuments added to the area outside the United Center. It was announced that Blackhawk legends Bobby Hull and Stan Mikita would be represented forever outside the United Center with two bronze...
Michael Jordan's Response to LeBron James
2010-11-27 22:09:00 Thank you, Michael Jordan, for reminding us that we need to stop making excuses about why other people are great and why we are not. We can all achieve what we want to achieve, if we put in the work. For most of us, we are not truly afraid of failing, if we were, we would all be noteworthy success stories. For most of us, we are truly afraid of succeeding.
Michael Jordan is out legacy protecting again
2010-10-15 21:45:00 Jordan had a recent interview with UDAToday's gamehunters about his role in NBA 2K11, and in typical Jordan fashion, looked somewhat insecure and legacy protecting in his quotes:How has the game changed from your playing days?It's less physical and the rules have changed, obviously. Based on these rules, if I had to play with my style of play, I'm pretty sure I would have fouled out or I would have been at the free throw line pretty often and I could have scored 100 points.Of course, there's always the comparison of you and Kobe Bryant. Where does Kobe stand in the status of NBA players through history?It's so hard to say. I think he is always going to be within...

And you sir, are no Michael Jordan
2010-08-17 13:00:00 Yes, I'm looking at you Kobe Bryant. I'm looking at you LeBron James. It's not your fault, the media screwed you both on this by bringing it up all the time, but in case there's any doubt, let me clear it up for you. You may be great, but you are no Michael Jordan. For whatever reason the media loves to dust off the "is this guy better than Michael Jordan" talk every couple years with some guy who's clearly not better than Jordan. There's only two men who can rightly be compared to Michael Jordan. Wilt Chamberlain (the domineer of raw stats) and Bill Russell (the domineer of wins). They both lose, but you at least have some type...
It's Begun: The Derrick Rose and Michael Jordan Conversation
2010-08-14 00:29:00 It's been more than a decade since the city of Chicago has seen what everybody nowadays knows as the best player to ever play (Michael Jordan). And with that, in Michael Jordan's absence of course--which was Chicago's demise--came an extended period of losing, and an epidemical proportion of hardship that generalized in an annual NBA Draft. That only lasted till 2008 though. But before 2008, and a lock-step ahead of the 1998-99 season, the Chicago Bulls had their stint with marquee names that were suppose-to-be(s). Ben Wallace was one, a signing that looked far more distressed--once stepping onto the United Center's floor--than previously led to believe. The 33-year-old then-Bull had become the latest poster-child that reminded Chicago of how good...

Will Lebron be the next Michael Jordan?
2010-06-22 01:45:00 There have been lots of comparisons between Bulls legend and basketball great Michael Jordan. I don't think anyone saw this one coming though.The Lake Erie Crushers, members of the independent minor league baseball Frontier League, plan to offer James a maximum contract under Frontier League rules on "Keep LBJ in the C-L-E Night" next week. The team said the contract is worth $1,600 a month and will include a host family so that James won't have the "stress of a potential commute" from Akron.

Top Ten Differences Between Michael Jordan and LeBron James
2010-05-14 12:52:00 After all that's transpired the past few days, I couldn't help myself. With all the talk about LeBron James, his struggles against the Boston Celtics and the possibility of him ending up with the Chicago Bulls, the conversation typically turns to the comparisons to Michael Jordan. It's only natural when dealing with a player of LeBron's stature. He's the heir apparent to the Jordan's throne, but from my perspective, he's got a long way to go. Here are the Top Ten Differences Between Michael Jordan and LeBron James right now....

Michael Jordan sues Jewel and Dominick's over ads
2009-12-22 00:35:00 Michael Jordan is suing both Jewel and Dominick's for the alleged unauthorized use of his identity in their advertisements. In the suit against Jewel, Jordan says that while a full page Jewel-Osco advertisement in the Sports Illustrated commemorative issue congratulates the basketball player, it "goes beyond that by appropriating [his] persona in order to promote Jewel-Osco's goods and services." The ad features red and white sneakers each with the number 23 and appear to be an "inaccurate and misleading copy of Air Jordan basketball shoes." It also featured text about honoring the "fellow Chicagoan who was 'just around the corner' for so many years." The complaint then states "Jordan would never permit Jewel-Osco to use his identity in connection with any...
Michael Jordan Responds To LeBron's "Retire No. 23" Comments
2009-12-08 20:45:00 I'm a few weeks late on this, but let's be honest: every day is a good day for an MJ post. On Nov. 19 Michael Jordan called in to "All Access with Ahmad" to wish host Ahmad Rashad a happy birthday. While he had him on the phone, Ahmad asked His Airness about LeBron James' plans to change his number after this season in an effort to get the NBA to retire #23 in Jordan's honor. It seems from his humble response that MJ's found his humility again after the widespread backlash to his Hall of Fame speech. Of course, the opportunity for LeBron to sell more jerseys if he switches numbers wasn't lost on Jordan, either....
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,...
