So what happens when Mike's kindergarten teacher gets sick or falls on hard times? Or the doc that prescribed the cough medicine when he was sick at 7 years old? What about his first school bus driver?? FOH. This nikka can't be responsible for every mufukka he ever crossed paths with.

I think that most people who reach really huge levels of success and fame have some sort of deep rooted issue plaguing them. After all "Napolean" complex is named for a nikka that damn near took over the world because he was :angry: about being short. :ehh:

The Napoleon complex is named after French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte. The conventional wisdom is that Napoleon compensated for his lack of height by seeking power, war and conquest. However, Napoleon was actually above average height for his time period, the average 18th century Frenchman stood at 1.6 m (5 ft 3 in)[citation needed]. Historians have now suggested Napoleon was 1.68 m (5 ft 6 in) tall

I read the article and posted my comment. So if you been going on for six pages on why Jordan should be helping dude, I haven't read it. Regardless, my opinion isnt a strawman argument anyway. Why should he help this dude? Cuz he coached him in basketball and MJ made millions in basketball? Not so fast. There could be any # of personal reasons he has for not helping this cat. But in my opinion from the outside looking in, he doesnt owe his HS bball coach shyt. Clearly they're not close. And if he does help dude that opens the flood gates for every other random with a sob story poppin up on some "But i was there when you..." BS. Just my thoughts. Nice scarecrow pic BTW. You had that on deck or did you have to search for it?

its a strawman argument because you compared a kindegarden teacher who may have just saw dude in the classroom to a coach who actually helped Jordan become Jordan. He went to the gym early in the morning with Jordan to help with his game, and would let him stay at his house and have dinner with him often. Especially since Jordan slandered dude for decades saying that dude cut him while neglecting all that he did for Jordan.

Comparing that to a kindegarden teacher or a doc who gave Jordan some cough syrup is the definition of strawman. And no, I googled it.

Its obvious that they arent close, the point is helping those who helped you.

If anything, Jordan could just come out and say, "I dont fukk with dude," and this story is dead.

Did his kindergarten teacher not teach :mjpls: how to read and count? He couldn't read them contracts or count that money without that initial push from her now could he? This broad might think that enough reason for him to get her house outta foreclosure. You don't know that she didnt give him extra tutoring or if he ate dinner at her house. You seem to think because this dude coached Jordan in his area of expertise early in his life, that he's owed something. Clearly MJ feel some type of way or doesnt feel some type of way about this cat. I don't feel he's obligated to. What happens when the guy who rebounded for Jordan at UNC during late nights in the gym's car is about to be repossessed? Everybody got a story, B. That's my point. MJ don't fukk with dude like that. Yeah he coached em in high school. Oh well. That's not his first or last coach. :yeshrug: And he doesnt owe the general public an answer on what he does or doesnt do with his money.
