    Kinda like Magic, he's been on the heavy side as well ever since he retired.

    Well, its better to be on the heavy side once you're retired, instead of being on the heavy side while you're still playing (ahem... Barkley).

    I've seen this commercial several times. The first time, I was just surprised by the pairing of MJ with Kevin Bacon. It doesn't make sense to me.

    Ad exec 1 - Ok, MJ is the greatest basketball player of all time. Who can we get to be in a commercial with him?

    Ad exec 2 - How about the guy from Foot Loose? I like that movie.

    I mean seriously, what's the connection? Kevin Bacon has NEVER been mentioned as the greatest actor of all time, and has he even done any big movies recently that have raised his stock? Or is Hanes just saying "Remember the 90's? These guys were all over the place" ?

    But after I saw the commercial a few times I realized something else. Everytime Kevin Bacon tries to throw something, even that grape into his mouth at the end, he's looking around for MJ like he expects him to be there. Are they supposed to be roommates or gay lovers in this commercial? It's gotta be more than friends because MJ just comes out of nowhere every time and none of my buddies can do that to me!

    THIS COMMERCIAL IS CRAZY!

    Michael Jordan was in Space Jam with Wayne Knight.

    Wayne Knight was in JFK with Kevin Bacon.

    Yeah,Magic gained weight right away though.Somebody help me here,but I want to say his situation has had more to do with his medications/HIV.

    I don't know what's stranger, pairing MJ with Kevin Bacon, or pairing him with Matthew Perry. Anyone remember the commercial where MJ and Chandler play pool?
