  1. Another reason why Lebron will never be the goat. I’m so tired of Lebron d riders. Get over it. He’s lost more finals than he has won.

    It goes Jordan 1, Bryant 2, and 3 is arguable. Lebron might be third but it’s deff not a clear answer. Shaq could be considered third and he can’t make a free throw. Still has more rings.

    Lebron is washed. Lost again this year. He needs to just retire..

    And the school he tried to start had like a 90% fail rate with the students. Just stop.

  2. Man I can only feel how hyped that crowd at that time was no phones or social media just the moment of the game and being with people you love ❤

  3. He had a terrible swing and wasn't any good and was only there because of his name and popularity

  4. I got one of his homers in Birmingham Alabama

    Got the ball signed

    I was 8 years old and lost the ball playing with my friends

  5. Got to watch his airness when he played for the white Sox minor league team (Birmingham) I was 6 and still remember that day vividly

  6. Incidentally his only 2 successful plays of the season. This was right after the NBA told him to lay low for 3 years or they were going to have to announce publicly he was busted gambling on sports.

  7. At first, I thought it was a joke of a player with the same name. It was him!!! This happened???

  8. Michael Jordan stunk at baseball. Don't let all the participation awards that everbody is giving him fool you

  9. For those wondering, no, he was not good. He played 127 games for AA Birmingham and posted a slash line of .202/.289/.266.

    Honestly everything about his game makes sense for a guy who was one of the greatest athletes in human history playing a sport they hadn't touched in over a decade. He stole bases but inefficiently, he was a sometimes dazzling but very unrefined outfielder.

    He very nearly salvaged his slash line with a decent walk rate but at the end of the day he just had absolutely no pop, with 3 homers in 500 plate appearances.

    So yes Michael Jordan was probably one of the worst players in AA baseball at the time. But at the end of the day he was able to hang with professionals and not embarrass himself in a sport that he had not played competitively since high school. And that's pretty cool.
