In a ridiculously stacked rookie class, Jordan outshined his competition with his spectacular displays of athleticism.  It’s almost funny to see a slightly unpolished Jordan at 22 years old.  We all see him as the smooth, confident man who has wowed us in so many ways, but this was before all that, when he was [...]

As most of you know by now, Michael Jordan is being inducted into the Hall of Fame today.  Yesterday, I discussed how Jordan was not only the greatest of all time, but that he redefined what greatest of all time even meant.  Today, we will be posting video tributes to him all day. This first [...]

G.O.A.T.  It’s a term that gets thrown around now and then, but what does it really mean?  How can anyone measure something like “The Greatest of all Time”?  With the induction of Michael Jordan into the Basketball Hall of Fame, the question arises again.  Jordan revolutionized his position, the role of the guard, the game [...]

I have no idea where or why this video was made, but Jordan gives Jackson a lesson in basketball and then Jackson teaches Jordan to dance. The whole thing is very odd and strangely funny. Enjoy: h/t: Chicagoist

The Illini don’t seem to have much trouble with the Boilermakers. Big win on Sunday to hopefully keep Illinois in the Top 25. Briggs helped out in the NFC’s Pro Bowl victory. Unfortunately no one cares except the 5 guys at StevieY19′s 6th Annual Pro Bowl Blowout Bash. Only 18 of 50 states have Major [...]

YES!!! Finally my dream for all-star weekend has come true. The NBA D-league has had HORSE at their all-star game for a few years now and I always felt that it would be awesome to watch NBA superstars making trick shots. The NBA has finally decided to have their own game of HORSE. Here is [...]

Kobe Bryant is no Jordan, but in case you didn’t hear about it, he dropped a nasty 61 points on the Knicks last night. Curious about the stat line? Well here it is: 61 pts…19/31 fgs…20/20 fts…3/6 3fgs…0 rebs (odd?)…3 assts…1 blk. Based on his shot chart, it looks like he scored from pretty much [...]

The Super Bowl was great. There have been some good games in the last 10 years, and Kurt Warner and Ben Roethlisberger have both been a part of half of them. Steelers win by the way, if you missed it. Northwestern wins a wild one over Wisconsin, and Penn State beats Michigan State in East [...]

In a contest reminiscent of a mid-90s Nebraska football game, the Illinois Senate ran up the score yesterday evening, voting to convict Blago 59-0. Good riddance jackass! Oh and one last thank you to ex-Governor Blagojevich for adding a third thing for Chicago to be known for. Al Capone and Michael Jordan, say hello to [...]

Stormin Norman (on the right in a white shirt) strolls off the court after soundly defeating his opponent in a Tic Tac Toe Death Match The Bulls played the Hawks last night and did their usual thing: play half-decent until the fourth quarter and then blow it. The real highlight of the game, however, was [...]

Illinois absolutely wrecks the Hoosiers. No matter how Illinois does this year (looks like they will be pretty good), it’s going to be fun to watch how horribly shitty Indiana is. Marinelli gets hired as D-Line coach of the Bears. Can they please just give him Babich’s job? Is Kenny Williams about to make a [...]

We all know Michael Jordan as the polished, classy gentleman we see today, but what was he like before all the fame and accolades…Let’s find out!

What would you do for a Big Mac? Well if you are a giant white man with bad knees I guess you would play some sort of crazy game of Horse against Michael Jordan for it. Commercials used to be so f#$%ing awesome:

The Bulls finally win one! It came down to the wire, but they pulled it out. If the last week has shown anything, it’s that Drew Gooden is very important to this team. Antoine Walker gets busted for driving drunk. It couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. Top Ten odds on what Milton Bradley [...]

Another great classic Bulls clip. This is from Christmas in 1992, Bulls vs. Knicks. Jordan goes off for 42 points in the Bulls win. A lot of great 90s graphics and my favorite part is Jordan’s quote about 2/3 through the clip about how certain young Knicks should stop being so cocky. Enjoy:
