I know Nike is hurting since MJ retired. Maybe they can come out with a Jordan wingtip line of shoes to get their sales going again. Mango
Speaking of Nike and MJ, have you seen the NEW Air Jordans. Damn, are they UGLY!!! ------------------ The key for the Rockets is a winning attitude and mentality which can only be had by winning basketball games.
I really can not believe SI put an NBA administrator on the cover instead of Tiger Woods winning 6 in a row. What's next David Stern shooting hoops on the cover? Don't get me wrong I have a hell of a lot of respect for Jordan... as a player. However, I PERSONALLY don't give a crap about his life as an officer of an NBA team. ------------------ The truth is out there.
Calvin23, MJ has been practicing with the team. I believe that's when they took the picture. Fox, there just isn't as many golf fans. They just care about selling magazines.
There is a little rumor circulating that Jordan could only work, in any capacity, for selected teams. These selected teams all had one thing in common: contracts with Nike. Who do the Wizards have a contract with? Nike. Nike's sales had dropped quite a bit after Jordan retired, and now all of a sudden, Mike's back wearing practice gear with a Nike logo on it. Honestly, I don't think Mike wanted to go into the front office. I have a feeling that Nike forced him to, and is probably giving him yet another undeserved chunk of change. ------------------ Jen Senior Lobbyist of the Movement to Trade Bryce Drew
I really doubt Nike 'forced' Michael Jordan to do anything. He made that company. I don't think they're in a position to be making demands of him. Oh yeah, and I think the cover is sick too. [This message has been edited by TheFreak (edited February 10, 2000).]
