This isnt a question about who had the biggest bandwagons....

and the poll results prove it.... The Bulls were culturally, the most popular team of the 1990s... hell..... the Last Dance documentary was 100x more popular than this Cowboys documentary thats airing on Netflix.. nobody even cares lol

Breaking news, more people were interested in a documentary centered around Michael Jordan than one centered around Jerry Jones

Before I had internet access Jordan was so hyped up as a kid I thought he had won like 10 championships :mjlol: Before Bron and Kobe careers took off it seemed like everybody without a doubt considered MJ the GOAT.



Also, nobody mentioned MJ having his own movie (space jam). It's easily the Bulls IMO.

Am I the only one who feels like Derek Jeter was more famous outside of sports than anybody on the Cowboys.




The Yankees were a running theme on Seinfeld and Jeter was dating Mariah Carey, I am NOT a Yankees fan but I am from NYC so maybe that makes the late 90s Yankees seem more popular than they actually was.




"Got the city jumping like when Jeter get on" - Styles P on that Beanie Sigel diss. Mind you baseball popularity in the Black community had declined a lot by this point so you had to make a bar where most of the listeners "gets it" which showed how popular Jeter/Yankees was back then.

Olajuwon badly, badly outplayed Ewing.

Everyone remembers Starks’s game 7, but Ewing had worse offensive numbers for the series.
It took Rudy a few games to figure out how to best use Hakeem and neutralize both Starks and keep Ewing 5ft or more from the rim. It was a great series really.

It's a good debate in terms of separating Michael from the Bulls. But I picked the Bulls. Maybe it was just my area, but I didn't see as much Cowboy stuff as I saw Bulls stuff.

I felt like people who didn't even watch basketball wanted to wear Chicago Bulls gear. But, I don't really remember, but what was it like in 9394 in terms of the Bulls popularity?
