Micheal Jordan Returns?

Just saw it on the sports reel. He's 90% certain he's going to come back.

Yeesh. The greats should stay greats by not trying to stay great.

That only makes sense to me.

I agree, Michal Jordan should stay retired.

Fuck Kobe!! The Blazers own the fucking whiney ass Lakers!

Jordan is God, and that's all there is to it.

Being a Chicagoan my whole life, I have to root for the man, he's got skills, and some mental issues he needs to work out.

But hey, if the best ball player ever wants back in, I say go for it. Or something...

In retrospect, I probably should have taken the vanilla icecream. But the chocolate looked far too tempting. Little did I know at the time, it was actually little children all mushed up into a fine icey paste. Needless to say, I didn't sleep well that night, and neither did those kiddies. Well, I didn't stand for such a crime!! NO WAY. I marched back in that store and demamded an explanation. And there is was. Double chocolate icecream. Sitting there, waiting to be ingested. Oh, the taste. Oh the pure orgasmic feeling when you consume the delicious cream. Oh, how I love chocolate icecream.

HAH! If Micheal returns, you will see what age (read experience and skill) can do! He will STILL kick ass.

It'll look just WRONG for him to play with anybody but Chicago.

In any case, I hope he comes back. Barklay and Jordan are two of my all time favorites in a sport I don't really follow. Every sport needs heros.

And feind, don't think of Magic Johnson, think Mohammed Ali.

I never really was a huge Jordan fan, but I have got to admit that he was the best. I think the NBA is better off with Jordan than without him.

I think it really sucks that Barkley got injured. He was definitely my favorite player. How many other 6'4" fowards could defend Shaq? Charles made a career of shutting down guys almost a foot taller than he was. You got to respect that.

Quite frankly, it's a big mistake. He doesn't need the money. He doesn't need the fame. He doesn't need to score more points. He doesn't need the adulation. He's already left the game as the greatest player ever. So what's the point?

I guess because it would bring some attention to the "Wizards", a team that Jordan is a co-owner of. Besides, sometimes stars aren't happy when they are no longer in the spotlight. It's an ego thing. He obviously doesn't need to prove anything, but like I said, he's probably bummed out seeing guys like Kobe and Iverson getting all the spotlight...so he wants to come back to feed his ego.

Yeah, the first season he played with the Suns was awesome. They were, without a doubt, one of the most exciting teams in NBA history. I think that was the year Charles got the MVP. The championship series with the Bulls was pretty damn exciting. I still have the voodoo doll of John Paxton that I made when he hit that shot to win game 6.
